NSW AAGPS Rugby 2014

[Brian Westlake]

Good point, Westlake. It is the money the clubs won't be paying, because the ARU can't afford a 2-bit lawyer to challenge anyone else who wants to take the lead. I am sure that if we approached Toyota and GMH directly, without the likes of the ARU sniffing arround we could get enough readdies to bring in some teams from Galargenbone to Mangrove Mountain to put on some decent trial games for the GPS teams. Who wants to see GPS teams sandbagging before the real matches begin anyway? Isn't that just the trap that View fell into last year, and only rectified after their famous win over Joeys?

I reckon you could fund it selling a hyperbaric chamber. Any available for sale????

 

[Brian Westlake]

GMH or Toyota wouldn't touch it, I'm sorry it is a trial only.

 

[Quick Hands]

Yes . Scots 1sts and 2nds are showing a "TBC" re fixtures . 3rds and below still against view. Curious to know what happened there?

Perhaps issues best left to the other thread have raised their ugly head.

 

[Quick Hands]

If you thnk about it, it makes sense because 3rds and below only have their 6 rounds, and so need the trials.
What beats me is that the ARU can't put some money back into the system by organising trials for GPS sides against some country teams. Let them stay at Rugby Lane in the city, or nearby at the CWA. Who wouldn't like to see View v Dunedoo?

I think you'll find that the 9 team 3rds competition play 8 rounds rather than 6, i.e. they play each other once.

Why would the money strapped ARU want to spend money orgainsing trials for GPS schools?

Sorry SOC and Brian Westlake, Dunedoo and Gulargambone are Rugby League towns. You might scrape up an U12 side at best.
You could try to get a game against the JGS in the regions

Been done: Grammar 1sts lost 17-14 (having led 14-0 at the half) to the WA U17's who were the Australian Champs.
Against one of the schools playing in true 1st XV comp it wold be no match at all.

TSC are obviously not wanting to show their hand given the trips to SAfrica and Southport. It will be interesting to see the lineup against Joeys.
LG and I will be prancing up and down the sideline ..... I hope he has been doing his pre season training and S&C.

Fair enough. Maybe they could have a crack at a first grade side in the country. It wouldn't be dissimilar to Robb or Albies playing in the NE comp. Or maybe that is who they should play. Probably some old boys from all the Schools in those teams.

I believe TAS used to play in the 1st grade comp up there

Absolutely. Back in the 70's when they also had a Teachers College. I am sure Jim B could enlighten us further. Interesting to see the changes over time.

Sorry,I just don't get how a 17 yo gets any benefit from getting beaten up by a 25 yo.
Even if they have led a privileged life thus far.

The View v Scots trial is not proceeding. However, to the best of my knowledge, the Joeys v Newington and Shore v Kings trials are.

Can anyone confirm venues and times for shore v kings and joeys v Newington. Are the games at northbridge and HH ? Usual 3.15?

Joeys v Newington at Joeys. 2:00pm 2nds; 3:15pm 1sts.

 

[Afternoon Tea]

This is Joeys' likely squad for this weeks fixture against Newington

1. James Margan
2. Pat O'Doherty
3. Tom Horton
4. Nathan Gitteos
5. Roman Hoferek
6. Max Knight
7. Josh Canturi
8. Koim Wingti
9. Matt Rodgers
10. Will McDonald
11. Mason Cohen
12. Tim McCutcheon
13. Tom Wright
14. Lachie Phillie
15. Connor O'Shea

The coaches are mixing the team around, looking for some new combinations in the back line. I believe that it could have a very positive impact, only time will tell.

Although I would like to know who they are playing come Saturday?

All very cloak and dagger

Surely it isn't more of this irregularities thing ... and hopefully just a case of both schools realise it is boring to play 3 times ... half these kids know one another well enough through Rep teams ..

 

[knock on]

From what I've heard there are only two changes to the joeys line up from last week. Dylan grant in on the wing replacing Eddie king and will o'connell into the pack for matt psaltis everyone else staying in the same positions.

I understand that Shore are at home to Kings (at Northbridge) this Saturday. 1st XV at 3:15pm, 2nd XV at 2:00pm and 3rd XV at 1:00pm.

Can anyone supply some team lists?

 

[spirit of cupertino]

Look, I have heard, but can't get confirmation, that TSC will be playing an under 85 kg colt side at a closed session and at a secret location. All I can tell you is that the Sat-Nav on the tour bus has been set to co-ordinates -33.868466, 151.109314

Concord Oval?

 

[spirit of cupertino]

I guess my tips for this saturday would have to be
Shore wins its only game of the season 23-19 over a resurgent Kings
Joeys to make a come from behind win, but only jkust, with New bringing in some very enterprising impact players too late off the bench. 12-9
View will resolve coaching tussel in favour of the rookie
TSC to thrash TBC 44-4
