Why do Joeys always feel the need to destroy other schools property?Ahhhh 2010. A day that will live long in the memories of those who were there. The day Joeys team of nobodies beat the Kings 1st XV with 10 Australian Schoolboys (when it meant something). Joeys wrecked the Kings perfect season and then the fence. Photo snapped by yours truly at the time.
Will Joeys do this again? Can history repeat itself? Will there be a half decent pie at the paddock?

Will see what I can find out, Kings are a bit sluggish getting the results up but they will be there eventually. As an aside, as the 3rds are an actual GPS comp shouldn't they be included? Wouldn't be hard to insert it on your spreadsheet retrospectively, maybe the same weight as the 16A's?Come on people
Not one result from any other game other than Joeys v Shore
Please ring around, text, ask your son. Help please

I think the New 13-16B's played Kings C's, which will make it difficult.Will see what I can find out, Kings are a bit sluggish getting the results up but they will be there eventually.

EDIT: re the 3rds I understand that Newington aren't in the comp, but maybe they could just get draws for the whole season, or use their 4ths (their actual 3rds) results. Maybe too complicated, I can see why the 3rds are left out haha
They do it way more than any other school.joeys should be absolutely disgusted in this behaviour.
Feedback from players from many schools and Cluch viewers is the JS White is the best rugby field for players and spectators - perhaps there is a bit of jealously from Joeys supporters about the 'lower paddock'Why do Joeys always feel the need to destroy other schools property?
Am a Shore supporter but have not heard of these 2 players, have they been injured or just in a lower team, nevertheless excited to watch them both next year. But to answer Ghost's question Shore seem to have a top heavy Year 11 cohort obviously with Le Maitre, but they have 5 in the 1sts in total as well as the 2nds 15 who is a standout from my view. I believe that Shore should have a good chance at competing next year, as this cohort were undefeated in 15As (Lost 3 players to the opens moving to 16As.)Yes, they are really strong. They have the likes of Xavier Alosio- elusive halfback who runs hard and Callum Zhu- quick winger who is really putting on size
You are half right - 13Bs and 14Bs both played each other, Kings 15Bs and 16Bs played the TAS A teams. I doubt it will affect the final rankings @Joker, what do you do though, give Kings and New 1 pt each?I think the New 13-16B's played Kings C's, which will make it difficult.
Some great points TGOR. We need someone to back up Brial, it seems obvious, just not sure why the coaching staff cannot put those structures in place. Very frustrating to watch, unfortunately another season over that sees a quality team not really hit the mark.I don't think it's a lack of fitness I think it has a lot to do with what BITOD says below.
They aren't setting a platform to work from. From that point they look flustered and lack cohesion and it relies on an individual to make a play over what you saw from Riverview by creating opportunities through flowing Rugby and support play. In a few of the Scots games I've watched this year they float in and out of games and keep the score close through a few very impressive moments. View kept their foot on the throat and didn't let them get within striking distance. I genuinely think the score is closer than what the game was. Tough first 10 mins 0/0 then the last two Scots tries had a bit of a look about them that View had it sewn up.
Brial needs a running mate in the forwards. He goes from whistle to whistle and generally takes two to bring him down. Get another ball runner immediately after and now you have a broken defence and I'd get the ball to the 12, 15 as quickly as possible.
No idea, but we do have a lot of people and lot to sayWhat is the max amount of pages a thread is allowed?
An accident like at Leichardt.joeys should be absolutely disgusted in this behaviour.
who?Shore will most likely have 3 or 4 Australian Schoolboys next year
2,4,7,12 areHas Shore got many Yr 11s in the current 1sts?
Seem to have some stronger cohorts coming through.
Gives the two round competition even more credence.
Mind you the after game spread is first class something many schools should aspire to.Oh pish, posh. Mr Andrew Parry has gone on record saying the Joeys playing surface is pristine.
Kings is a wonderful surface with great drainage but it is still a cricket ground.
Kings boys shouldn’t throw stones in glass houses…….joeys should be absolutely disgusted in this behaviour.
2,4,7,12 are
It’s a cricket pitch and a mile from the crowd. I’d rate it 4th or 5th best. Weigall is better.I'm sure the Kings oval in person looks very nice but on Cluch, it is way too far away.
