GT Won 10 A (21-12)
13 A was a lot tougher than the score indicated
15 A I thought was 31-8 with GT ahead 8-7 with 15 to go (lots out for GT today).
Some great rugby at played at Toowong today.

Also 4/4 Darveniza, Rafter. Take note
Truly, this ACGS side is the best I've ever seen at schoolboy level.

Our experts are mostly in agreement, but Spik is backing BBC over GT. Are his Old Boy ties clouding his judgement, or is he seeing something the rest of us aren't? Time will tell.
Amazing game from ACGS today, at HT I thought it would blow out immensely. A very early try from TSS saw a fantastic start and I started feeling worried (I tipped ACGS) but a return try straight after saw it negated. Truly, this ACGS side is the best I've ever seen at schoolboy level. Sublime handling, crushing defence, shattering running; they have the whole package. It was very enjoyable watching them put on a near flawless performance after so many errors plagued their round 1 game. Expect a full write-up soon.

The Churchie team is a very impressive team particularly how they work as a unit and for each other with awesome structure. The try saving tackle that the Churchie 15 put on the TSS 11 was something else - not because of the impact but rather the composure to show him the corner and then clean him up. On another point I would take the TSS 13 ahead of the Churchie 13 any day - he has raw speed and is very good on his feet.The forum has around 10 regular contributors that are affiliated with BBC & GT so a bias of posts talking about their games is to be expected. The chat is about the competition and you can talk about whatever you like. Churchie and TSS supporters should talk about that if that's what they want.
Hard not to talk about GT & BBC when it was such an entertaining, dramatic & controversial game really
......and the Churchie 15 will play for Queensland....unfortunately for rugby it will be in Origin.....The Churchie team is a very impressive team particularly how they work as a unit and for each other with awesome structure.

.....and I don't know what the TSS game plan was and whether it is happened all season but I wasn't sure whether the TSS 8 was playing fullback or 12....given his size I would have thought he might have been useful at the breakdown...and the Churchie 15 will play for Queensland..unfortunately for rugby it will be in Origin...
