Hi guys I thought it would be a good idea to let you know that I will be at Tennyson tomorrow to watch the battle of the colours, I will be there from around 12ish to watch the 16a's, 2XV and 1XV. Feel free to come up to me and have a yarn. Have a look for the middle age man who has watched to much rugby in his time. I will send a photo of where I am when I get there. Schoolboys feel free to come up to me and talk like and footy.

Mate i can just picture you in my head hahaha. Probably a stud with long grey hair. Do you find it better to sit by yourself to watch these games away from the crowds, or do you get right into the mix of things. Let me know. Cheers

BGS put up a good fight against GT and a good first half against Nudgee. If they can replicate that then they should be able to get up out at Northgate. Plus TGS's form is looking shocking but its The GPS and anything is possible.

Ahh, classic, I used to love the whole footy politics and chatting to all the parents. It is very overwhelming these days with all the helicopters around. Now I pull up my camp chair on an empty sideline and just enjoy it all and take it in.

I am thinking the Nasser boy. What a freaky rugby boy.

Sam Russel, every week he seems to be making runs and plays that could be put in a highlight reel.

For GT I have - Nasser, Russell, Hollyman
For NC I have - O'connel, Greenfell, Conway
Just picking a top 3 from each school - however my bold prediction is Greenfell for a double of the NC rolling maul. No illegal sacking from the GT boys though i hope, I heard they have been one to try get away with it. It all goes back to the old saying - once it has formed, sacking no more.

Poese, Conway, Grenfell, Nasser. 4 obvious choices for me

Terrace by 12+
Get em onside

Although in the recent decade Nudgee have dominated in the 1XV comp, other then last year the 2XV from each respective school seem to match up nicely. It's always one of the best games of the day and tomorrow should be no different. However rugby xplora does have a slightly tweaked lineup for the terrace side as I think there may be an injury or two. However in 2022 the gt boys won on Tennyson so who knows. Regardless of who terrace have on their team, the nudge are always hard to beat. Looking to the rest of the 2s comp, churchie vs BBC will be a highly contested game, with church only falling just short to nudge.
Better check that score. Nudgee beat churchie 38-12.

2's has always been good footy, I remember playing against GT in grade 11 in '96 and there's something about the 2's that has a little more Grit. We ended up losing that year but that only fuelled the fire. In '97 we got up 43-3 against the terrace slickers in what was the biggest win margin ever against Terrace at the time (or so I believe). I still remember the beautiful pill that Ben Wakely fed me to get over in the 63rd minute to burrow under the Terrace line (I was a Prop - For context). Good times, Good times, only makes me more excited for the battle of the colours this weekend. NUDGEE WHOOOO-RAH.

Well Terrace 2nd XV beat Churchie by 22-0 but there have been a few injuries and some key players have returned.
