    Sydney Colts - 2014

    Rocco you are clairvoyant. Easts firsts colts 15 defeated Manly firsts colts 12. Rough tough in your face Easts attitude and defensive commitment took on the much larger and heavier Manly pack and maintained some precious possession. Two tries a side and only a penalty goal in it. The UPSET of...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2012

    Thanks FF (Folau Fainga'a)....You confirm the program was not incorrect and Creeley did not play Friday as I suspected. I also note he was VC of CAS on Tuesday. Congratulations and well done to him on his performance Tuesday. His selection acknowledges his performance. I am confounded FF (Folau Fainga'a) as to why my...

    NSW AAGPS Rugby 2012

    History says YES. The system is so lacking in support/ finance/ focus/ review that past incumbents will be selected.....too expensive to look outside the established associations. Or are the selectors underpaid /overworked. ( cynical whinge says overpaid /underworked ??????) Sad for those young...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2012

    I find it frustrating that the Aust Schools Championships are so out of sync with the Sydney GPS season. ( it commences on July 28th)... therefore selections of GPS squads ( and NSW) will be on trial form alone ( 3 to 4 trial games maximum and coaches/players still not settled into final...

    Kings school final leg of tour in France and Italy . Kings beat US Rugby Annecy 44-5. Last night defeated Petrarca Padua 41-0.( final game) Results would indicate somewhat of a mismatch of skill levels in selecting opposition sides in this final leg of the tour. Now to conclude sightseeing and...

    Correct CTPE. Kings won 22 -18 over Wellington College. Tight game played apparently on a magnificent ground in front of the whole school... great atmosphere. Wellington gracious hosts and must feel frustrated as it was two tries to them and only one by Kings...penalty conversions being the...
