Qld Premier Rugby 2023

Brothers v Reds Academy should be good, down at Bond.

Forecast is for the wettest day in a quite a while, could make for some scrappy footy all around.

I thought that last week being the first game of the season would have seen poor handling etc but was very surprised at the quality of the play between the filth and red heavies across all grades.

Maybe the rain will have a bigger impact, but I am sure plenty will still give a red hot go to impress coaches.

Who was the aspiring representative rugby union half-back sitting in the front row at the Dolphins game at the same time as the Reds were playing the Force?

Not an issue.. unless he is contracted then yeah there’s some expectation that he watch and analyse

I remember seeing an injured Kurtley Beale at a Rabbitohs games years ago, same time the Waratahs were playing interstate.

Even if they're contracted I don't have an issue with it, as long as they don't have match day duties at the game they can do what they like at the time. There's nothing wrong with watching and analysing after the fact (arguably it's better for clear analysis with the result known). Maybe it's a bit different if it's a finals game or an important late season match, but in that case I'd expect the non-travelling squad to have some sort of viewing planned.

These guys get so few free weekends in the season, it would be insane to stop them from going to the footy with their mates when they have one.

Cullin Cooper Jones is reinventing himself at the kennel as more then just a halfback option.

playing fullback for rebels A this weekend, I thought he looked quite good on the sting for Wests in the Australian club championship game last weekend.

Has too given the number of handy No9's registered at the joint.

That move to another club to get more 1st Grade time at halfback is going well

I think he was trending towards being the preferred 9 at gps…had it not been for the wests/rebels connection. I’m sure he would have been in the mixer at Yoku.

So who are the new players (or colts stepping up to grade) around the clubs we should be watching out for to have a break out year and get us excited about depth in QLD. (or for other franchises to steal)

Finn Prass at Brothers. In the Reds Development team first year out of school. Sunshine Coast continues to be a gold mine of untapped potential.

untapped? Gordons., McDermott, Werchon, Prass. What's untapped about it?

Tapped

I guess cause they win a bit and the location. If you live out that side of town there is not a lot of choice compared to UQ, Wests, Souths and Easts all very central to CBD

Brothers is more central to the CBD than any of those clubs.

 

[Sir Charles]

I hear whispers Jonte Connolly has been called into the Aus 7s squad

there’s a very good possibility at the Rugby World Cup in France later in year.

we will have a 9 & 10 pairing, sunny coast products with matching hairdos!

What’s the go with Moses Jones? I see he’s starting fullback today for GPS.

From what I could gather he’s Quade’s brother and had a Japanese training contract with QC (Quade Cooper)’s club earlier this year but obviously got let go.

Shane Arnold is a handy judge of talent especially in the backs, I’m guessing he’s handy?

wests is 4.1 km from Brisbane CBD

Wasn’t he playing at Sunnybank previously? I think in their colts team.

during Covid we had Kerevi, Cooper and Genia all training at Yoku Rd.

 

[Confucius Say]

He was at BSHS in 2019. Has a boot on him.

Using maps apps. Clubhouse to Brisbane CBD. (Which I believe is post office square)
