Good take, what makes you think Newington will be so dominant up against SJC, they won the competition last year.
Newington are quite strong this year, despite a colossal mishap against Shore last week, they're simply leagues above everyone else. Joeys, on the other hand, haven't shown too much quality. However, I would say that a scoreline like 2-0 or 3-1 is certainly foreseeable.

very very good with his feet, and quite a decent shot stopper too. works extremely well with teams that like to keep possession and aren't afraid of playing with the ball in their own half.

Claiming that newington are “levels above everyone” is so naive. They lost first round of the gps. The gps is so competitive this year I can definitely imagine newington loose to schools like scots, joeys and honestly even worse schools like view or kings as well.

Some thoughts on round 2:
Sydney boys I believe are being over hyped with a big win predicted against kings. Kings went undefeated in the group stage drawing with boys in the grp stage of plate, and had a respectable draw (despite being the worst team) against grammar round 1. Meanwhile despite grammar beating view 5-0 previously, i think that game will also be more competitive than originally thought. Riverview had a respectable performance against sydney boys round 1 and i believe are less of a push over than people percieve, the fact that Grammar beat view 5-0 pre season may make them arrogant when in reality riverview are really not that bad of a squad.

Agree. While Newington clearly hold much quality with 5 players selected in the GPS XI, they are historically susceptible to dropping points despite being the best team. In the previous two seasons, Newington dominated the combined squad but failed to lift the trophy. The challenge will be to recover from the loss against Shore and look to go near perfect in their last 6 games. If not, we may see Scots, High, or Shore form a title charge.

Nothing but the truth Sydney,

Certainly keen to see tight competition this year - as skilled as some of their players are Newington seems to fumble the bag quite frequently I must say.

GPS results today:
1sts:
High vs Kings: 5- 0
Grammar vs View: 1-1

2nds
High vs Kings: 1-1
Grammar vs View: 1-1

Points shared across the board a lot, showing the evenness of the teams in this competition. Conflicting KingsOnTop's predictions, go figure, seemed very optimistic for his first grade prediction. A thumping by Sydney High shows how they're genuine title contenders and the plate final wasn't a fluke. Does anyone know how strong Kings will be this season? It seems the competition has nearly split itself into two tiers of (1) Newo, Scots, Shore, High and (2) Joeys, Kings, View, Grammar, does this seem fair?

Seems completely fair considering SIC and SGS had drew their in 1st and 2nd grade games respectively.
