Nc 47-BBC 12. NC forwards dominated, NC 10 completely outplayed his opposite. BBC have plenty coming back next year and have a very handy 16A team so next year could finally be their year. If NC get over Churchie next week crowd will be massive at Ross Oval for TSS game with potentially two grand finals in 1st’s and 2nd’s.
Watched livestream IGS v TSS game, called a mate of mine from IGS, no fewer than seven U16 boys blooded today against the might of TSS. Courageous effort shown by a smaller back row against the biggest forward pack in the GPS system. IGS backline showed lots of talent today.
GT last week and now IGS have taken the gloss off TSS . They’re not unbeatable, and in fact, based on what I saw on the live streams these past two weeks, littered with weak spots. I really thought after conceding 45 points TSS would really focus this week, but that didn’t happen. NC really are in the box seat for that final round.
I agree TSS a very talented but flawed team and NC match up well,TSS will need to be very careful kicking the ball away to this team. NC should start very warm favourites IMO
NC has a danger game against Churchie before worrying about TSS. Clearly the dark horse of the comp with only one loss, results far out weighing expectation. NC beat them easily in a trial however there appears to be considerable improvement since then. Should be another great day of rugby at East Brisbane for old boys day. Both 1st and 2nds should be a cracker.
Yeah - next 2 rounds are well set up for a big finishNc 47-BBC 12. NC forwards dominated, NC 10 completely outplayed his opposite.

Did I hear correctly on double take that NC 10 is returning next year.I believe BBC has 11 of the starting 15 returning next year. A very young team this year with plenty of upside. I have to agree with Garry the next two years are promising.
Yes well done to him on a terrific season so far . He has played a lot of his rep rugby at 12 and could end up mostly playing there in the future , but is the form 10 of the comp this year , improving from what was a very good 2017 . How good will he be in 2019 after a likely UK tour with Aussie Schools?Did I hear correctly on double take that NC 10 is returning next year.
If so. That is frightening

I think overall the BBC flyhalf has the brightest future (not to knock the others). He has a good boot and pass, is fearless in defense and with his height/body type has a lot more room to grow and muscle up than the NC or TSS options.who lets face it, won't get much taller.
