^ Good chance David Vaihu will join his older brother Glen in the backline of GT's First XV next year.

Guessing Larzlo Sword from Corinda SHS is the younger brother of Izzy who started at Churchie this year and played 13 for their Firsts?

If so , good chance he will follow his brother over to East Brisbane.

Ned Hanigan - another example of Waratah bias with Wallaby selections - "Looks like Jane, plays like Jane". Would not have lived against Loane, Shaw and Cornellsen.

Haha. Knew I would get the response as soon as I typed.

Ok - a recent Reds example is Dave McDuling (Riverview 1st VIII - 2006)

Glen was a standout at Riverview this year. Unfortunate not to get a position in the schoolboys squad. If David is anything like his brother, then GT might see the light. GT had a few great players this year with Roach, Kirk, Condon and Vaihu. Without the strength of a solid forward pack you just can’t attack and compete with the likes of the Nudge and TSS. Same goes for Carter Gordon at BBC. The kid was left out in the cold, but boy does he know how to tackle the big boys. Ezra from State High looks alright too. I don’t think he played his best game against our boys but seems to read the game well. A couple of the BBC boys look pretty well drilled. I like a few of the TSS boys, but have no idea who is who in the zoo.

How many Super Rugby and Wallabies players over the past 10 years played and rowed in Firsts? I’m yet to see Kibble on the paddock for Super rugby.

There is a fine line. Body composition and willingness are the key. I hear BBC want to throw every kid in a boat. Being promised a First XV position if you jump in a boat. Now that’s when injuries occur. Let’s look at how the two top teams do it. Pre-season starts in January and not after rowing season.

The TSS coach would disagree with you.Plenty of Open TSS rugby players row
Any way -this is a rugby forum on rugby-not a stage for you to moan about your son missing out on the 1sts because he couldn't/wouldnt row.You are throwing/spraying some poor accusations out there .

Another one for you, Darcy Swain - BBC First VIII 2015 and now plays for the Brumbies. Having been on both sides of the curtain, I am 100% of the opinion that nothing builds fitness and ability to fight injuries like rowing does - there's a reason people are able to keep rowing into their 80's/90's.

^What BBC does holds no concern. The word on the sideline is that the bad culture at BBC is associated to rugby players being forced to row. I personally saw the emphasis on rowing when my boy went for an interview at the school 5 years ago. When the rugby recruiter is the rowing coach, then you can see how things can be tainted. As stated, body composition and willingness are the key.
Put it this way, a Super rugby player doesn’t continue to row at a high level after school. I just don’t care. Only putting my opinion forward on a forum. Is this a forum?And why does every discussion on this thread revert back to BBC? Too many parents trying to push their kids position in the team?

Not a parent mate, and I get what you're saying.

My issue that I have is that there is too much of this "I only play one sport culture" at BBC, it does absolutely no favours for school morale when boys are helicoptered in to play First XV in year 11 and then don't get themselves involved in any other aspects of the school. I think you'd find that there is a fair few boys who played first XV and were asked to row - and actually enjoyed the social aspect of it! It seems there's a vocal minority who would like to make everyone think it works the other way around.

And completely agree on every discussion reverting back to BBC, I have vested interest in the school and even I get sick of hearing it. Then again, what else would happen in this forum if we didn't have BBC posters?

Agree. The boys should be introduced to a variety of sports. It helps develop them. Just sick of hearing the banter about BBC. If you can’t support your school or the players get out. Simple.

The entire Nudgee team are deserving of securing top positions. Outstanding team performance this year. Every combination works.

Personally I would have Parata over Pasitoa. A pity he has been lost to the ARU, recruited by the Crusaders, who have had the odd good #10 in the past and might like what they see.
