Seems people are forgetting Dempsey was out for 9 weeks leading into the JWC, and that Argentina was his first hit out. They seem to be building him into the tournament, hopefully we see more of him, there is a lack of aggression out there
If it is the same team as last week it will look somthing like this:
1. Cam Orr
2. Tevita Vea
3. Tom Robertson
4. Cameron Skelton
5. Callum Buckling
6. Sam Croke
7. Jack Dempsey (c)
8. Pat Sio
9. Fabian Natoli
10. Andrew Deegan
11. Tyson Davis
12. Ellis Abrahams
13. ?
14. Andrew Kellaway

I've been told that Oz schoolboy and National Academy back rower Jack Dempsey is heading to Gordon in 2013. More than likely to play in grade rather than Colts though
I think you'll find Stewart will stay in our game because i have been told he has already signed for the national academy which I believe actually is financially invested in it's players. The other players who I've been told have been invited into the academy are
Jack Dempsey
Mitch Whiteley...
Wow, what a game. Congrats to the Oz boys they did everyone back here proud. Dempsey and Whiteley had blinders, aswell as Robinson and Placid. Can definitely see futures for these guys and others in Australian rugby
From what i have been told, the Oz team are only fielding their strongest team in the test matches vs Fiji, Samoa and NZ and in the barbarians they ran most of the reserves aswell as Fiji Presidents.
I dont believe there is any doubt guys like Dempsey, Stewart, Pleash and the like will be on...
29-17 to Joeys, they were the smarter and better team today which made the difference. They put 3 guys on Dempsey every time he touched the ball which shutdown alot of Views go forward. Joeys dominated in the scrum which forced Whiteley to run it off the back many times, often isolated. View...
Saturday nights game was a great spectacle and display of young Australian rugby talent but in all fairness, it was never going to be much of a contest and the match proved to be a very open game for most parts. Looking towards the NZ game, Aus Schools will not be given the opportunities to...
nice analysis pine. From recent trials the team will look something like this IMO:
1 Robertson
2 Wilson
3 O connor
4 Rorke
5 Phillip
6 Dempsey
7 Murphy/Randall
8 Whitely
9 Natoli
10 Horwitz/McIntyre
11 Foketi
12 Milne
13 Barclay
14 Jones
15 Kellaway
The CAS forwards made an error in trying to tackle Dempsey high on most occasions and saw how good his fend is. CHS should take note that he is no where near as effective if you take him early and low, but you make your own luck in this game.
I think you'll find that all rugby players are...
View vs Scots
This game was a battle between one of the best back lines (S) and the best forward packs (R). Scots went in early from a quick tap and snip by the half back (20). From this point it was just domination by the View forwards with occasional brilliance from the Scots backs. View...
I dont understand how you can say dempsey is out of form?? Out of form suggests that a player is consistently in a slump where they are not playing to their full potential. Dempsey played against st pats and was dominant as of last year, but St pats is St pats... Besides that he has been injured...
