Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2014

[Rugby from the backrow]

Day Three Random thoughts:
Second Div I game day is often a day for coaches to give the bench a run on start. This can disrupt team cohesion and combinations. Today was no exception and this can explain why so many games were games of two halves.

Where can I find out the players numbers so that your summaries make some sense?

Why they picked mcgregor at 15 rather than 10 in the Nsw 2s always surprised me . His performance today at 10 was outstanding

Repeat of last year will be good.

I can see some problems in the Lough household though, over whether they barrack for Junior, Senior, or sit on the fence and rejoice that Rugby is the winner.

Injured within the first 20 minutes.

With current Australian Schoolboys Hookers Sione Tai, and Alex Mafi injured, Ed Craig would have to be the Happy Hooker.

AKA. I think size will rule him out not playing ability. Get him to 95/ 100 kgs and a few extra inches and hes got it all

Some may say that not much of what I post makes sense.


Numbers are as per team lists published a page or two back.

For convenience, I have edited the OP to include names.

The tour to NZ isn't until late September. There is plenty of time for Mafi and Tai to prove fitness (depending on the nature of their injuries).
