If the structure of selection was not so biased toward GPS a lot more AIC boys would be making the team. Don't doubt the level of talent the AIC competition contains.

was at churchie on the weekend and watched a few games. standouts was the churchie 15 a fullback. most dominant player i have ever seen at that level. everyone was shocked at how good he was. in the 16 a's TGS had a tall second rower who i think was their captain that was very very strong at lineout time and good around the park, definately a contender. and the flyhalf from churchie locky bell was impressive, big and strong could be good at 12.

Amazing start to year by TGS U16A's.
Bigger tests arrive soon but so far so good.

The TGS boys name you would be referring to is Jimmy Gordon. He is the captain of TGS 16As. Used to play number 8 but just this year experimenting with second row. His line out jumping is exceptional, he has always been dominant in this area and his work rate around the field is superb. He can read the game really well too. But the issue with this boy is he is also an exceptional athlete, being the current national discus champion for his age which he has dominated over many years, so that could affect his decisions around which sport he may pursue.

Daniel Byrne (#5 Ashgrove First XV) is the single strongest contender from Ashgrove.

Watched a number of AIC 16 A's games this year and lets just say I'd rather watch paint dry. GPS by far the better comp.

You're missing the U16 boys in First XV teams.

State High Firsts second rower, I think his name is Tuaina Tuilama
I think some AIC players could have a surprise appearance anything could happen. But most of those players will most likely be in that team. Any thoughts on Queensland White?

Dan McHugh and Joel Mead from SLC. Probably two of the better players in what was a weak SLC team this year. McHugh is only in Year 10 so is one to watch in the next couple of years

Yer it is his Brother but completely different builds. I think this boy could easily be a chance but often being outside the metropolitan GPS sides, they can sometimes be overlooked as they are not as well known.

While most of these guys are playing First XV for their respective schools, I would just say that do not underestimate the abilities of the TSS u16's not playing in Firsts due to the talent in front of them. This team is currently smashing all before it and I believe that a good half dozen of these players will make Red or White teams.

 

[MrKnowItAll]

Any suggestions on who will make the White team?

Completely agree, however I haven't got the chance to go out and watch them play yet. My prediction was based on the people I've seen and could easily be changed, especially in the front row.

I witnessed the BSHS vs. Churchie 16A game the other week and the form of the BSHS side was quite appalling, I know a lot of the 16's are playing firsts for them but this was also the case for the AIC 16's. In conclusion, a variety of AIC 16's will make one of the two teams...

When is the first initial list of players announced?
