What's the issue with the Breakers mate? I remember back to the days like 01, 03, 04,05,07 when you blokes were strong!
Not sure but notice they have lost more young talent to other clubs again! Really wonder whether they will be competitive in Prems or 1st grade. Didn't recognise a lot of guys out there today but the side looked a lot weaker than last years lineup and they managed two wins for the whole year.
No tips until the comp starts after Easter SouthernX

I heard nil all at half time, but didn't get a update about FT
We should really compile a BNE #3rdTier twitter handle list for game day updates. I don't imagine qldpremierrugby will be active til season kickoff

Gee sounds entertaining...........haha.
Anything important to report Scott, or was it just general pre-season stuff?

Both teams fielded experimental line ups but the game was a still of a decent calibre. Wests couldn't seem to hold on to the ball and this really killed them multiple times they would be on a break or in space and drop it. Where as easts capitalised on the few chances they had. Both teams will take a lot of positives out of it

Pretty good summary TD.
Tigerland12 - it was certainly a good defensive battle.
We had 13 out of our pre-season squad of 35 unavailable so we got to see what sort of depth we'll have this year. Reserve Grade to Wests 22-7 so overall we were pleased with how the day went. 2nd grade to Wests - all other grades to Easts.
Easts also had a number of guys unavailable so will likely be two pretty different teams that play against each other when we meet again.
We expect the majority of those missing to be available next week against Norths so will get to test some new combinations again.

Not to bad of a start for Wests it looks, surely some positive signs.
How'd the colts go?

The colts was on a a little early to be viewed but i believe easts one boths colts 1 and prems.
However having spoken to multiple people apparently wests had some talent on display and the coahces were happy with what came out of it. Especially as they had some of their better players unavailable
P.s anyone know how norths went in their trials?

Norths facebook site shows
Premier grade Norths 15 souths 10
1st souths 26 Norths 22
2nd grade Souths 24 Norths 12
Souths won both colts games.
From what I heard all players suffered from the hot conditions and it was a very stop start affair.

Wow Norths looking the goods. Its looking like there won't be one easy opponent for QLD premier rugby teams in he Brisbane City catchment.
The City v Country match they play really needs to be canted in my opinion because of the strength of Brisbane teams to the coastal/county outfit.
I'd much prefer a North River v South Ricer match similar of the make up of teams of the Tornados & Aces in the now defunct ARC

I would prefer a genuine city vs country. Where players who went to school/played juniors in the country are eligible for country selection.
But at the sametime the match has never really ever turned into a pasting regardless of how terrible the coast teams are doing

A flaw to your preference is how do you select immigrants such as Kiwis who migrate to Australia and end up playing Premier Rugby.
You'd be leaving a lot of good talent out of the match.
