Add in Daniel Byrne (5) and Sebastian Fahey (11) both from grade 11 as well.
Would also like to point out that of the four grade 11's in the squad, Beveridge and Lancashire are 17 while Byrne and Fahey are 16.

Seb fahey is having a great year of the wing scoring plenty of try's expect him to be a key feature for 2014.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Fahey move to full back in 2014, it's a more natural position for him and he certainly has the talent to do so. Fairly sure that he did play that position in juniors, and was carving up the park with his kick returns and pace, would like to see him move back there next week
He will play the year out on the wing With there current fullback Manning a very good player, Fahey will wear the 15 jersey next year
If that is the case, then he is going to get absolutely torched by the Peters and Eddies backlines...

up and comers for the marist First XV include:
Will Burke, with outstanding ball skills and an ability to read plays with eaze. Also his ability to terrorise oppistions in attack.
Nathan jennison: Amazing talent will the ball in hand, and his cool calm and collected composure on the field.

It is true that he has quite the boot. He's also had some experience in centers from U13's and U14's but looked much more promising at fullback. However, I do know that he will have some competition from other players for that spot in the First XV 2014.

He does lack pace but I do not see the eddies backline really dominating ashgroves because of this. Eddies in my opinion fail in the forwards which gives ashgrove an edge. The ashgrove pack is much bigger, fitter and play smart rugby. Both eddies and Marist have their majority of players coming from league backgrounds. This seems to have affected eddies style of play where there is lack of commitment in the rucks and forwards seen in the backline. I don't mean to tack ash up but the coaching from both coaches has proven to create a side that might bring back ashgroves glory days of wining outright premierships year after year.
I was more meaning that he is like Lancashire in that he goes under the radar. I agree that Lancashire can often linger in the backs when tired. I don't doubt he will give it his all this week against eddies though
What games have you been able to watch this season?

That's from the Sanix World Youth Rugby Tournament held in Japan that NC just recently participated in.
his defence was ordinary with the Peters flyhalf running through him for a try. All he seemed to do was kick the ball the ball a long way.
Will be great to see Ashgrove and Eddies play this week. The game will be one in the forwards. Eddies are lacking the power from last year in Andrew Manu, Harly Fox, Jordan perese and Lachlan Roe in the fowards. Sam Clarke and Henry Devine need to be one their best game. Should be great to watch?
Any thoughts on players and the team?

Clifton Setu the fullback for eddies has simply been amazing. Watched him play against pats....footwork, power and speed! Does lack a little in the height compartment but makes up for it in other physical aspects. Forwards like Lui Afelie played well. Forwards at Eddies may not be well known like Ashgrove or those of the 2012 team at eddies but these forwards will defiently get the job done! My tip is eddies by 5.
