    NSW Schools Debating 2018

    Riverview beat Barker unanimously on the topic that “We should ban all occupational licenses” (Doctor, Lawyer, Plumber, Electrician, consists of exams and or training), taking home the senior A ISDA premiership. Knox beat Kambala in Year 9. Barker won in Year 10, beating MLC. Senior B, MLC...

    Apparently only the first week, against Joeys.

    NSW Schools Debating 2018

    In ISDA news: Riverview beat Joeys in a 2-1 Split on the aff of the topic that “Progressive Individuals and Organisations should not support or provide advice to Trump” (paraphrased). Barker beat Kings (no news re split or topic). Should be an interesting final, certainly one that no one...

    It certainly was an interesting result, Grammar had the easier side, and Barker wasn't strong in the rounds, but the adj. was the chief adj. for the comp. The results are all legit. It certainly is looking like a strong GPS year. Grammar seemingly isn't in great form (loss to Barker + Scots)...

Edit: Kings and Joeys apparently won their...

    Absolutely disgusting. Especially when the Adj. was talking about not memorising speech and using statistics, which Joey's speech was full of. Surely he should be disqualified?

    NSW Schools Debating 2018

    I really thought St Luke's would win the shield, shock surprise. Even worse, Grammar didn't speak Yim. They may well be, but a fluke against Grammar, a Kings win, and a Shore forfeit isn't great, especially with their best speaker gone. Too soon to call; but I'd say this was a neg weighted...

    NSW Schools Debating 2018

    Interestingly, Augustine's have been kicked out/are no longer partaking in the ISDA. Apparently not submitting topics/some other technicality is the justification. Probably a good thing, they didn't win a single seniors debate last year. Newington, unsurprisingly, are the replacement (though...
