    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    You keep going on about example of good player playing in Div 2. Well hello it’s happening now, star players in crap school teams has been going on for yrs and still is going on. ST Aloyious have a crap team this yr, but there are one or two good players this yr. Is it fair on them playing in a...

    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    No pot stirring at all by me, You seem happy to keep things the same and don’t see schools being part of national sport pathways, where as I do . Alos can be more academic focused or not even have rugby anymore, it’s up to them . But having a merged association means weaker schools with weaker...

    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    A tough read you say, nothing tough at all. The current system isn’t working for the elite teams eg 16A/1st 15. It’s not a high enough standard eg Alos getting thrashed this yr . More depth and wider talent pool needs to be created . And higher playing standards. Eg Scot’s vs Waverley in...

    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    Once again your over complicating things. For a start GPS banned clutch from commentating on the games(as they didn’t want things hyped up). They have banned Foxtel from trying to buy tv rights to there games. It’s obvious you don’t want private school sport at 1st 15 level commercialised or...

    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    Just merge the associations . It’s crazy in 2023 that there is not a Sydney competition . Put more pressure on the boys/have higher competition standards /commercialise 1st 15 rugby eg let pay tv show games like they want to eg Foxtel wanted to buy GPS rights, only to be told by headmasters to...

    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    Your Div 3 1st 15 stuff makes no sense either . Sydney high Sydney grammar 1st 15 have to play in GPS 2nds/GPS 3rds comp. Should all the good rugby players at these schools leave and go to other schools ?

    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    Yes other sports to. Australian sport the private schools should be helping eg Socceroos/boomers /Oz cricket team. They are in isolation from the national gov bodies , and aren’t developing competition structures that are of highest possible standards . This is despite RA and sports bodies...

    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    Nonsense , 1) firstly it don’t matter if rest of rugby program is weak. Only two teams that count are 1st 15/16 A’s. The 15B’s can be weak. 2) Teams at 1st 15 would be placed in divisions based on strength 3) How is Joeys vs Knox Grammar playing in a meaningful game bad for rugby? Or Scots...

    Rugby schools, their players, and the pathway to Seniors

    CAS/ISA/GPS need to merge in Sydney, and get put into different divisions. im sick of big schools eg Joeys Knox Grammar , only playing on trial games. These private schools need to have higher standard competitions to help the wallabies , as opposed to just doing their own thing in a closed...
