I agree. Both boys would have been excellent inclusions for BBC. The College has a new prop who played U16s for Qld last year. Wilkins would have been very damaging if used at 15 like Folau and they have Foulds to the centres along with Nanai. Dark horses might be Len Ikitau, Fraser Cotton and Joe Stead. And the undefeated U15As from 2013 didn't have Jesse Poluka for any of its games. He may come into calculations too.
Even without Bronson, Wilkins and Smith there is a lot of competition for spots in the team.

There is a new stand going up at Tennyson, but I don't think the main field has any lights for night games.
Yes, definitely an interesting development.
With NC and GT having the most rugby teams of any school, I think it is going to be difficult to push through the 30 odd games on a Friday arvo / evening.

Possible answer to the split round.... I have just heard that it may just refer to the Basketball round between the two schools being held on the Friday night rather than the traditional Saturday to allow "full" attendance for the Firsts for each sport.
I hope he realises he wont be eligible for 1st XV this year.
You 2 need to get your facts straight.Smith has not left BBC -he has switched from boarding to day boy.My cuz has seen him all this week.
If you want to know how good he can be-just ask Kaylan Pongia (star Churchie fullback going to Cowboys)why Smith was named player of the NRL National (not just Qld)under 15 league tournament & why he is rated 1 on the Broncos under 15 roster.

Predictions for Gregory Terrace 1st XV:
1. Jacob Stanely
2. Matt Kendall / Tim McMahon
3. Kyle Leofa
4. George Cox
5. Sam Greentree
6. Ted Porter
7. Connor Moroney
8. Patrick Carrigan
9. Reuben Wall / Tom Lutvey
10. Alex Horan
11. Quillan Pritchard-Malaki
12. Hiale Roycroft
13. Nikau Te Rupe
14. Jack Lodder
15. Macario Manis / Nick Weller
Terrace has some new surprising stars from the year below, Macario Manis, is an uprising star and will bring great defence as he is definitely a utility back. Tossing up between Reuben Wall & Tom Lutvey for the number 9 spot, they both have great experience in that position but Wall definitely over powers Lutvey in attack and at the break downs. The back line is rock solid in attack, they have been training well in the gym, can't wait too see their field play. This back line is air tight and will perform well in the 2014 season. The forwards are an under weight pack, but by having Matt Kendall at Hooker
, he will add a few kilos of weight to the forward pack. Also, besides all of weight, he still has a ripper of a boot with his precise and accurate kicking.

GT-12 & 13 are up there with best centre pairing in comp -ie-Churchie.
But what if they get injured.where is depth??
Good to see DR Chapman has changed his mind-3,11,12&13 are great aditions.

Hiale & Nikau are a great addition to the team and bring a positive vibe.
The chances of them both getting injured is unlikely, but may happen during the season.
Chapman has made a choice about bringing these players to the school but at the same time will bring a great asset towards the team and school.

I agree in GT centre pairing being a top pairing, if they stay fit. I know Jayden S'ua is at Churchie and so with Perese - that face off will be exciting to watch. Anyone got suggestions on the centre pairing at BBC firsts for this year?
At last count BBC had 8 going for the 2 centre positions:
- centre and wing from 2013 firsts;
- undefeated 15 A Centres who are both rep league players ;
- 16A Centres who are both rep rugby players;
-foulds who is the biggest of the lot and Ngamu who has gone straight into the QRU squad with CaroZza
Lets be serious : no one in the comp this year is as good as Perese. If he stays injury free them IMO Churchie have best player in the comp.his display last year at the nationals was sensational.

got to admit -this is a red hot backline. But forwards look small (Churchie and BBC will be enormous) and where is the depth??. They need to prey they do not not get 2 or 3 injuries.
I'd go with something like:
1. Toby Greenup
2. Josh Taylor
3. Bradley Undi
4. Callum Ball
5. Unknown
6. Justin Whatmore
7. PJ Van Den Berg
8. Mckenzie Browne
9. Jordan Lenac
10. Fred Dorrough
11. Ben Turnbull
12. Dylan Riley
13. Joey Fittock
14. Unknown
15. Tyler Campbell
