Google JAR Mackellar FF (Folau Fainga'a) - a star that burned brightly but too briefly! Died at 28 years of tuberculosis or pneumonia or some such poxy disease that we take for granted is not going to affect us! Published 28 poems I believe - one for each year of his life - and this one soars!
Cheers, Wreckless

6 played last year and about 10 players coming back next year with 1st xv experience (but probably only 6 or 7 would be on the starting dream team for this season with the others getting opportunities due to injuries)

Beat Shore 16C's last weekend 22-0. Wore them down and forwards in particular played very well. Shore were effected by many injuries but Grammar definitely outdid them with lots of possession and territory. 5-0 was the halftime score.
Also drew 7-7 with Joeys 16C's

It always reminds me of SJC: don't know if there's still a quiet little drink in the shed at the southern end as there was in my day - strictly for parents of course - after which you'd have to walk down the main entrance in at least a half light.Here Here! Any reference to "Football Field : Evening" is worth a "LIKE" at a minimum! Here's the full monty in case anyone is interested! Cheers, Wreckless

Reminds me of the walk back to the car after the after match, passing Johnson at Stanmore - the battle done, the speeches made - an eerie but somehow comforting quiet over everything! Might take the flask on Sept. 7th and emulate you IS!
Thanks again! Wreckless

Having watched the game and then talking to a mate who has a boy in the View side..you are wrong on the View 10..apparently according to the stats he made 1 ineffective tackle attempt and made quite a few on considerably larger opponents throughout the game. His defence has been improving throughout the season as he has gained confidence in contact.

Am anticipating one or two upsets this weekend, with three contestable matches by all sides.
Predictions
Shore v Kings - Kings will miss a few stars, and hopefully Shore relieve's themselves of their successive losses. Shore win by 7
Joeys v Newington - Deegan to come back firing, perhaps enough for them to win at home. Will really need to step it up from last weekend. Joeys win by 3
Riverview v Scots - Riverview are in a rare patch of form, however unfortunately so are Scots. With Crichton back in and Hunt out, the gold might maintain their stranglehold over the GPS. Scots to win by 8

My only comment would be if you are going to go all "Die Walkure" on us instead of "The Ride of the Valkyries" then don't forget the umlaut, it's "Die Walküre". (use alt button and 0252)
Gotta love an umlaut!!!

There must have been two No.10s on the field then because I saw him fall off more than one 1-on-1 tackle on the weekend

I believe I have commented long ago on Messrs Skelly & Kelly and following LG's warning, this is not the place to dredge it up again. There is no et al.
As I commented on the GPS Cricket thread, Scots lost one game, beat the eventual premiers by an innings and lots and were not premiers due to a rule anomaly that has rightly been corrected for next season.
The College, parents and boys believe the whole cricket programme is a success and will yield results for years to come.

Joeys to win ? You can't knock wishful enthusiasm!
Crichton back from injury? How many weeks have we heard this? I've heard that he will not b back, but I'm usually wrong (especially on this forum)

Well based on that prediction it (a) will certainly be the game of the season, and (b) I will hang around for it and send you the bill for my time if you're wrong!
