Anyone got any input on the Under 14's this year and how they are tracking..
Also, I know that Churchie and Nudgee face off this weekend.

Are you basing that on last year teams in the age groups below or has BBC already got their E's out on the training paddock?
BBC certainly fell short of 30 players in the 14's on the weekend with a number of boys playing in both the A and B teams to make up the numbers - injuries which are par for the course at BBC did bite as I understand it - presumably they have more boys not part of the AB programs that will make up numbers in a B probably c team - but no doubt the numbers and standards of BBC 12-14s in considerably down on past years.
A fair deal of concern for Rugby moving forward (including numbers and coaching) with BBC parents I encountered.
Think u will find gt football #'s have dropped considerably since 2018. Program sold out to Brisbane cityfc. Huge # of scholarships and no results. 1 win this season. Just goes to show. You cannot buy a premiership.Try telling that to the 16 BBC boys (4 teams)in under 15 tennis -who could not play in round 2 because GT did not have a single /zip under 15 team.
Huge numbers in GT soccer i see.
He played in both trials State high and TSS. So not off to SYDNEY. Nudgee 15a has a few new faces in the back line and new 8 been trialing. A few injuries and unavailability so team changing and position shuffles for a few. Few lads from Bs have come up to As and doing well. Will be very competitive. Excellent defence and more than one option in attack this year.Hi Nomad
Are you aware whether the 12 for NC last year has indeed gone to SYD?
If so, that is a bit of a gap they will need to fill (which undoubtedly they will).
Cheers
there is nothing to fear about the big #'s in football. If u have been to a 1st 11 game u will realize zero entertainment and zero supporters. Its a participation sport. And that is where it ends. Rugby is the #1 gps sport. We need to ensure it retains its integrity and status.Try telling that to the 16 BBC boys (4 teams)in under 15 tennis -who could not play in round 2 because GT did not have a single /zip under 15 team.

Legacy successHasn't BBC already won Volleyball ,tennis & x/country this year? And surely T &F for the 4th year in a row.
Oh no-we play them in tennis this weekend.
I'm sort of surprised that no one is talking about Australia's highest paid 17 year old rugby athlete that has just inked a deal with the Chooks equivalent to the GDP of Tasmania
Right here in our little ol' GPS Competition
Meanwhile , RA has passed the hat around and inked up its "priority" next generation stars with a couple of bob and some Sizzler Salad Bar Vouchers.
It might help if they wanted to actually , y'know , look at Rugby players and do some of their own homework
Family upbringing might mean some will have their feet firmly on the ground and will adjust to the limelight with a level headGreat kid. Great player. But way too young to be signing $300k contracts if that’s what it is. Titans paying their half $1m a season and not getting value whilst Latrell at 21 is already distracted. Obscene now what these guys can demand if their agent is cunning enough. As soon as it gets a bit tough, they can pull the pin and go to another club.
I would be thinking very carefully before letting my kid go down to sin city to hang out with the types that play RL.
Was on a plane coming back from Sydney recently with a QLD NRL team and all they did when they got on, was look at short movies on their phones their mates had sent them from the night before. Right in front of other passengers! I was shocked and not.
Maybe it takes their mind off the hiding they received the night before (in the game I mean).
Seriously, without the Telegraph making up daily drama
