If they sign one, done deal... the schools know they have - just ask New who turns up at reception with Sunny Bill Williams... can't hide it so have to divulge it... the league clubs advise the schools as is, the coaches just have to acknowledge it. Its not for sheep stations its bout...

...ealisation that rugby has passed the point at which the schools can be expected to produce the ARU's canon fodder? Unless powers that be acknowledge Union players v Mungos they will always chase the tail. Age brackets should be adhered too, Year 10 unless an absolute legend like Bel or a...

I was a bit disgruntled today to find out that the dominating winger for New Josh Mitchell aka 'the bear' (as his on field name goes) has been dropped to the 2nd XV .... GPSrow, could not agree more, but as we know via another forum he is an easy target of non-investment... he will kick arse...

Wow - so GPSRow are you saying that only two from the current Newington First XV are not on bursaries/scholarships?? This is accurate, one has flown the flag solo for a few games. It would be nice to see them sort there game out this week and play as a team, expectation is rightfully high...

No argument from me, I was a winger and nothing more frustrating than the inside not passing you a decent ball, I noted more in the crowd were screaming pass the ball so its not going un-noticed.

... some serious reviews need to be made of Newington's game planning. The pick-and-drive was getting nowhere fast, and the backs consistently fancied themselves one-on-one rather than taking that extra pass... ... it was frustrating to watch, Scotts played smarter simple footy moving the ball...

It was very hard for wingers across the competition. The mix of centres and lack of them passing the ball in space in front of the wingers was annoying to watch. NSW II had many opportunities in the final game v NSW I to move it to the player in space and failed to do it, one winger had a scrum...

fat lady isn't singing yet for the NSW IIs, no doubting talent of the above but its easy to look good when you haven't played much substance. IIs have everything to play for and have ability across the field, lets se how they go when they are tackled....

we should have a GPS SuperMums team, cook off for a finals game. Well done all mums the driving support force of all junior rugby, it doesn't go un-noticed!

Think selection on form for GPS especially 12, 13 and 14 from New who dominated Views back line, carved up was what I saw especially from those three, plenty of skill and strength.

can understand playing in the competition itself and representing the school, but the ARU is in damage control for keeping numbers in the game.This is a simple opportunity to reward the exact players they are wanting to hang around so give them opportunities. Signing NRL contracts whilst at...

following on an earlier post regarding the selection of contracted rugby leaguers - WHY select them, its rugby union so select any player thats a union player. Its the most pointless exercise selecting them in GPS or any level beyond, its just taking away development opportunity for others...

stet "gone to NRL not ARL"

Q. Why does the ARU / GPS pathway administrators persist with those who have signed contracts with NRL, the day year 12 finishes they are gone ski to the ARL on a weekly pay check? If ARU is serious about strengthening and widening the talent pool in the code of Union across grade and...
