QLD GPS 2024

Upset? With all of GT's injury's I would say they do not go in to many games as favourites. However if the boys train well this week and come together on Saturday they could be the ones to pull off the upset.

Doubt GT will pull off an upset this week against BBC at Gaza. If you compare Weir, Hollyman, Harkin to BBC's bomb squad of Donnovan, Bakker, Clifford it's clear that one trio is ready for war and the other is focusing on looking tough in the Facebook promotions.

Supposedly GT is appointing the 10 position to young star Joseph Grice this weekend. I was quite surprised by this pick after the blinder of a game in which Max Murphy had last week at 10. Grice is a 6'3 giant (you wouldn't expect this kid to play flyhalf, looks more like a tight head prop), but boy can he play. I had the opportunity to witness him in the 16As Terrace vs Nudgee game. Kid has guts that's all I can say. I'm excited to see the team lists drop, hopefully Grice gets a run...

As the school day is about to start I would just like top reiterate a message. Schoolboys are 100% welcome and they definitely should be on this forum to provide valuable input. However there is a clear line in the sand. Please refrain from being a water hoser and only provide accurate and useful input. Play the ball and not the man and do not get it ruined again please.

Cheers- Get em Onside

True mate! Been a valid member of this forum for quite some time but appreciate the message. I'll stay quiet next time I hear some gossip from the schools, unless that is what this forum was built for?

Lucas Clifford, Nana Glen born Prop, is ready for SCRUMTIME against GT…. He will be hunting, and if the GT boys want to slow him down, it’s going to come down to body height. Furthermore, Clifford played for NSW country last year, which is an impressive achivement. And that is the key reason why GT, are going to have to dig SOOO deep, to shut this bloke down…

Hey mate, I'm actually close with the 16as coach from terrace. Joseph GRICE plays in the row and unfortunately he was injured against Nudgee. As stated previously please refrain from water hosing, don't take the mick out of this forum

Lucas 'Pudge' Clifford is off the leash for round 7.

I'm not very familiar with Clifford but I have heard that he Barks at the crowd when he scores as his nickname is the Pitbull? Let me know if this is accurate please.

Sorry mate had no idea, as stated previously got the gossip from an inside prospect so not always 100% reliable. Please refrain from accusing one of "taking the mick" out of the beloved forum.

Yep. Clifford's low center of gravity makes it easier to protect the ball at breakdowns, like a mother hen protecting her eggs. I think he'll be the main reason to BBC's success this weekend, as he isn't afraid to hit the ruck hard.

How come you said you personally were privileged to watch him play in that game as a fly half ?????? Doesn't add up

Have just asked my source and I have mistaken Joseph Grice with the infamous Tom Weir apparently. Once again sorry for the miscommunication.

Clifford dabbles in some water polo too don't forget.

This may be off topic but is there an official GPS comp for Water Polo? I don't believe NC offer it as a sport as of current.

Wow. Didn't realize that Lucas Clifford played volleyball. However, it all makes sense now seeing videos of him squating logs. LEG DRIVE.

Quick Question who has the best chop tackle in the comp

I Believe he was a shadow player as a Pass-Hit for QLD White. Can any volleyballers confirm this?
