Alrighty men I'm more than happy to kick off this footy yarn, let's talk game of the round. Two fixtures have my attention...

Nudgee vs IGS
Bit of a blockbuster brewing here. Nudgee's coming off a bye with some pent-up aggression, while IGS are strutting around like they've already booked the premiership parade. Tyson Walker will finish 2nd best to Archie Mesritz, case closed.

TGS vs BGS
Word on the street is BGS have unlocked some kind of ancient rugby magic, possibly buried under their Maths textbooks. They've gone from being dubbed the "Study XV" and "ATAR Grammar" (I won't say the full nickname) to actually putting some points on the board. However, i think the boys from out west will show up.

Thoughts?
Agreed, both games will be exciting to watch. Ippy have a really good chance to crush Nudgee's premiership dreams, while Grammar have nothing to lose yet everything to prove against Toowoomba. Another fixture I'm excited to see is GT vs TSS. GT had a close game with BBC, and I believe that if they carry that momentum to their game against TSS will give them their first tally in the win column. Just my opinion, though.

Putting this behind us, what are your score predictions for the weekend? Any upsets?
Only upset on the cards would be GT getting up

Tough loss out at Miskin last weekend, but the men in red and black definitely had a crack

With both TSS and GT being 0-2 it will be interesting to see who will take out their first win of the season.

GT by 5

I'm tipping an upset at Gaza this weekend. Think GT are due for a win after a disappointing start to the season. Also think that IGS could cause a bit of trouble at Gallipoli. Think they're damaging backline could cause Nudgee some troubles. Wouldn't be shocked if they came away with the W.
Couldn't agree more Julie. I think the likes of Walker, Coombes and Rakuita will cause some real trouble for the Nudgee outside backs. The grade 10 Barry Takuala was impressive against BSHS, so will be an interesting matchup between him and Rakuita on Ross.

I think we are getting ahead of ourselves Forum. I mean come on now. Ippi getting up against Nudgee is unheard of. coming of a BYE makes it even harder. hehe.

Hey PP,
Putting this former dribble behind us. I too am keen for the Nudgee vs Ipswich clash this weekend. As a grandparent heading down the motorway for 'grandparents round' I am very excited to watch the highly touted clash between young Tyson Walker and the the somewhat unspoken of Archie Mezrits. From what I've heard it will be a thrilling clash. However with a little bit of old boy bias I believe the nudgee boys will get over the line in there first home game of the year.

On the other hand I have not heard a whole heap about the BGS lads except the fact they are god-knows-how on the up. Although last year I remember hearing about a promising group of year 11 lads coming through. Its nice to see such a prestigious school doing well for once. On the other hand is TGS. All I hear is Tusi is carrying them despite handing out scholarships wiley niley like the TSS of old. This one will be a tight one but what do I know, I'm keen to hear the opinions of everyone else.

Kindly,
GN

You would think that all the schools with boarding would top it off. watching my grandson play at Miskin on saturdi, couldn't help but to bring up the limited amount of BBC boys AT A HOME GAME. seriously disappointing. hehe.

Especially considering it was their Old Boys Day. I reckon Terrace almost outnumbered them.

Afternoon Forum. Hope everyone had a footy-filled day. hehe . can we all agree that this is not the year for Churchie. Might be a wooden spoon situation for them. especially with probably the smallest forward pack I have ever seen (coming from a fan of the smallest prodigy in the GPS, the Staffy). Anyway, seriously concerning stuff. and thoughts? hehe .

PP think this is a bit harsh. Having won and drawn a game I think it would be hard for them to land on the bottom of the table come season end. Yes they may lack a bit of weight in the pack but I think they're outside backs make up for this.
