The long walk shouldn't be an issue..you will be able to get a skinny latte on the way, and then slip into the hyperbaric chamber for a freshen up before the game...you will be unstoppable....

I took my times off the CAS website. Seriously hard to find any info. NSW schools rugby website hasn't been updated; still has 2013 info as the leading news.
In any case, only a 15 min difference so not a major issue.

I was planning on being lazy and driving there. Might just walk now.

Postpone them till next week. Things do come up you know...
CHS v CHS games on today.
Lots of blue stuff shown on the BOM Rain Radar in and around Sydney.
Looks like a day that the Piggies dream of, with the Princesses worried about their hair getting messed up and jumpers getting dirty.
The wet weather may play into CHS hands if they execute a simple forward oriented field position gameplan.
Forget about finding a parking spot and the long walk to the oval, the question of the day is: did you bring some wet weather spectating equipment?
You wouldn't want to end up having to wrap yourself up in a few old towels from the car boot in an attempt to stay warm.
Others have tried this previously and while it may be warm, it isn't a pretty sight.

Stuck in the Gulag, and can't make it. Hoping that another of our usual correspondents will be able to provide updates.
@Sideline Eye or @Monty Python both seem to have reliable sources and one or other can usually be relied upon to post the scores and a quick match summary.
Cranbrook based G&GR's may also be fairly quick to post updates and scores.

Two good games. The score in 2s was a draw: CHS 26 - CAS 26. I can't comment on the game as I only saw the last few minutes.
The I's was a match of two halves. CAS came out very structured and looked well organised, and were by far the better side to start with. It looked for a while like it might have been a bit of a runaway at half time when the score was (I think) CAS 21-CHS 5. However, the CHS boys pulled up their socks and had a much better second half. They got a bit of verve going for a while and came back to a more respectable full time score of CAS 28 - CHS 19.
As Mr Jarse has commented earlier, the CHS boys often take a while to get it together as a team, and perhaps that was the problem today. It was also a bit greasy (didn't rain during the match, but the ground was wet from the morning rain) and there was a lot of dropped ball, but CHS seemed to fumble a bit more than CAS. The CHS backs really need some more work together as the back line really looked a little raggle-taggle compared to the CAS boys. Just basics - like passes falling short of the mark, taking a look and fumbling the catch, kicking a bit aimlessly neither to touch nor over their heads, etc.
The forwards matched it up pretty well and I think the CHS pack had it over CAS. They each won all their own scrums, but the CHS jumpers/lifters stole two CAS lineouts against the throw. Some great pilfering by the CHS forwards at crucial times in the match. They were camped on the CAS line for a good 15-20 minutes in the second half, but couldn't quite get the last pass off a number of times to get over the line. Great defensive effort from CAS.
The man of the match for each team (as voted by the opposition team/coaches) was #8 Nick Makas (Cranbrook) for CAS and #2 and captain Ed Craig (Epping Boys HS) for CHS. Both players worthy recipients for their performance on the day.

A nice wrap-up of the CHS I v CAS I match yesterday at Cranbrook, from Lee Grant, on the G&G web page:

The CHS v CAS fixture at Cranbrook is a wonderful example of what schoolboy rugby is about. The dinner Wednesday evening brings the teams together and the games were played in good spirit. Considering the rain, the rugby played was of a high standard. Congratulations to both school associations.

Couldn't agree more RB - the players sat opposite their opposite number at dinner the night before and then smashed each other the next day - the only thing missing is a beer after the game - next year they can do that.
That is why we love our game.
