News out of the Barker paddock is that Luke Muriti, Jed Smith, Charlie Heidke, and Riley Evans are new additions to the Barker rugby programme. Any info on what position they play would be greatly appreciated.
The best side in NSW is barker followed by Joeys in 2022. The best side in NSW in 2021 was Waverley followed by Riverview. Should not be a debate imho for both cases.
The point you are making is very invalid. You're being hypothetical. Reality renders Barker has cleaned up JOEYS by 20 points with a THIRD (All NSW players) of their team out !!
Maybe youse are right but I still firmly believe Barker would beat Joeys even with an away fixture as they already did by 30-10. Perhaps this time it will be a much closer encounter. Also, you play to win regardless if the fixture is a trial or non-trial game. You don't rock up against a team...
They beat us by a few points without their #10 and 2 or 3 NSW players. So I think a full strength Barker would beat a full strength Joeys by 7 to 15, and us by 20
Barker would beat Joeys again by a try or two.
Barker missed their NSW #2, Oniti Finau (2021 NSW gen blue #3), their #6, and new #15. All of Joeys "star players" (except for #15) are evenly or better matched by Barker counterparts, which is why I think Barker would win even if kids like Fowler...
I rate him (I'm a riverview kid as well). Would select him over Saunders for Gen Blue 1 but we'll see how politics will play out givens Saunders in the Wallabies U20.
Hey guys I'm being serious here and I'm trynna actually foster a discussion because I'm curious what the oldheads think. Which side do u think will win between CAS and GPS. If i'm being honest, CAS looks like a stronger team this year but you never know (last year we thought that and GPS won)...
