CCC U16 Team list from the weekends trial

CHS 16s team lists from the CCC trial are attached

CHS Team lists from today's opens trial is attached. Been a few changes since the initially announced squads. Apparently a number of boys pulled out or were unavailable

CHS had their first warm up games today at Foreshore Rugby Park, results for the record: CCC 6, CHS2 5 CHS1 38, CHS2 0 CHS1 28, CCC 7 CHS 1s looked strong across the park, but it's early days. CHS 2s forwards were good, but their backs underwhelming.

I stand corrected, he did play u18 for Illawarra in 2014. It's a shame he's not playing grade rugby as he has some ability. Apologies my memory failed me

Not sure where the info on Dane Bowen is coming from - he has never played JGC or rep for Illawarra

Jacob Barnes also previously represented Country Schools on one of their development tours and played in the Junior Gold Cup for Illawarra. Dane Bowen isn't playing senior club rugby this season, played last year for the Shoalhaven U17's in the Illawarra Junior Comp.

Couldn't agree more! Have to say the whole squad notification process was a farce, the boys were told that it would be in the paper on Saturday and on the website. Not a good look when they start hearing via the grapevine who got a phone call or who's part of a Facebook page. Looks like you need...

Has the initial squad of 24 been published anywhere yet? Can seem to find any info on the full squad.

After being a late call up to replace South Australia, NSW Country Juniors (boys U18) did well to make the plate final, pushing NSW White all the way before going down 24-19. NSW white scored the decisive try to win the game in the last play of the game. The Country boys finished 6th overall...

Has anyone hear the make up of the Illawarra JGC squads, heard they tried some weeks back for spots??

Well spotted S'UP. Country 17s put the cleaners through Sydney 17s, but there were some interesting resulting selections in the NSW 17's. A number of the Sydney players were completely outplayed by their Country opposition, but they still made the NSW starting side. The make up of the front row...

True, true Hugh. This pathway almost seems to be dead. Looks like the ARUs focus for 17s will be on the JGC and the proposed NSW and QLD sides that will be picked at the conclusion of next years JGC. Still it's a shame for this years crop that have worked hard with the promise of at least one...

I'm hearing that the NSW U17s will now only be playing Syd Under 18s on the Oct long weekend after Brisbane have pulled out late in the piece. Very disappointing for all the NSW boys concerned who have worked hard to come through this pathway.

Anyone heard any news confirming what the NSW 15's and 17's teams will be doing or who they will be playing? Would be a shame for the Country boys (and the City ones) to come all the way through the pathway and not do much or play meaningful game.

Magilla, The Sydney Juniors website contains the following info re NSW 17's, but not sure of its currency: NSWJRU Representative Team The NSW team will attend an elite training weekend with the NSW Waratahs and coaching staff. Plus there will be a game against the U18 Sydney team on the...

S'UP, the Country 17s dominated in the forwards, from my observation. They defended their line really well and were dominant in the scrums. The Country line out held its own. In the end three Country props got selected, so at least one reserve Country player was selected in the NSW 17s team. It...

Great result from the Country 17's. Was a dominant performance, even when they were down to 13 men late in the first half due to two yellow cards. To a man the Country boys outplayed their City rivals and probably deserved to dominate the NSW U17's selections. Lets not down play the significance...

Agree with your some of your sentiments Boof, not sure that the coaches would have had much say in the games they got handed by the powers that be.
