Australian Schoolboys & National Championship 2010

[barbarian]

Wouldn't think so. The very best they could hope for would be a replay during the day on Fox Sports, a la the Championship final.

They might get a shot at the Presidents XV. They will play in a double header at Knox on 4 September. Here are the details;

Has this presidents XV been picked yet?

Yes it has. These are the selections I know of (I do not know positions);

Gordon Broome CHS, NSW 1 Flanker
Jason Seage, CHS, NSW2 wing/fullback
Ulupano Seuteni, under 16 QLD, TSS, fly half/centre

Can people post the selections they are aware of please. QLD and other states included

 

[barbarian]

Apparently it is mostly NTS guys.

I have heard Merriman (Shore/Halfback) and Williams (Joeys/Breakaway), and I think there are a few more GPS boys in there.

Apparently it is mostly NTS guys.

I think you might be right. The team has been selected by Aussie Schools selectors and the ARU High Performance Unit. The management of the Presidents team is as follows;

Head coach: Peter Reeves (Chevalier College)
Asst coach: Peter Gibson (Trinity Grammar)
Manager: John Rownes (Knox Grammar).

I'm pretty sure these same guys were NSW 2's management team

 

[FTS]

Jack Jones (prop), Clint Dale (halfback), Michael and Dean Oakman-Hunt (2nd Rowers) from Canberra

can they pick people who didn't play in the championships?

Yes, they picked a couple already, viz. Merriman and Seuteni.

Can our QLD forum members please tell us the names of players chosen in the Presidents team.

 

[barbarian]

Seeings as the game is in Sydney I wouldn't be surprised if it was just NSW and ACT players.

Keep your eyes on Kite.I understand that he was unlucky not to be chosen in the Oz Scholboys team.From all reports he had some strong performances for Nudgee.The young 5/8 from TSS is definitely one to watch.Strong,good hands and pretty quick.He played 16a's at TSS so I guess he should be a good chance for the Qld U16 team.

 

[observer]

I think Kite captained Nudgee and my QLD spies tell me Seuteni is the next big thing.

 

[ikaletahi]

Kite missed the nationals due to a nasty knee injury sustained the game before GPS was chosen.

I have heard Allan Allaatoa has also been picked

Who is he? Where is he from?

 

[Iluvmyfooty]

Who is he? Where is he from?

Allan was in the NSW 1 schools team this year (he is only 16) and he is one of the big props from Newington that terrorised Joeys last weekend. he is also in the NSW JGS squad. A really good player with heaps of potential
