I wandered down and watched TSS/IGS on Wednseday night, have to say I was a bit impressed with both 9s , and the 10 from TSS looked not a bad kid. Sorry I have no names, or if they usual players, but will say there was some bloody good rugby on show.

How did you think the 10’s stacked up Dan ?
Has been some big press on Walker, the IGS 10. He had an easy day against GT last weekend, but was behind a dominant forward pack on the day. From all reports the TSS forwards won the battle on Wed night, maybe a gives a better indication of how good Walker is ?
Interested to hear your thoughts if you feel like sharing.

Nomad, the IGS 10 looked bloodsy good, he seemed to be at 15 quite a bit, and really burnt a lot of players with pace etc. I was really impressed with whole game and will admit to being at every Reds game at Suncorp this year, but think I saw more skill displayed at this game. Loved it!

Just joined this forum today after following iit the last couple of years.
Looking very much forward to the 2019 GPS Premiership.
It will be very hard for any team to beat TSS this year and the first game v Nudgee will be a cracker.
If Nudgee do beat TSS and win the rest of the games, the final round featuring Nudgee v Churchie will again set up an extraordinary atmosphere for and end of season match on Ross Oval.
Having attended personally the game where BGS upset Nudgee on Ross a few years back to decide the Premiership, as well as watching last year’s final game on Ross v TSS via YouTube overseas, I find it hard to compare any other rugby experience to this.

^ Agree , close to the most passionately supported rugby around . Have said countless times that the lads who are fortunate enough to play in these types of games you mention will not play in front of a crowd like that again unless they make right through the professional ranks . It’s s great competition.

Not one segment in this video showing these boys in the classroom.......says a lot about the school and the importance it places on education and balancing learning and rugby. Sad.

Seriously? That's because its a rugby video. There is no footage of any other sports or extra cirucular activities either. Nudgee place enormous importance on the classroom as do all of these schools. I expect they just assume that balanced people would understand the omision of penicls and erasers on a pre season gym workout video.
I don't know if there's much chance of them being released. I've approached QRU and RA about them and they weren't keen to be overly forthcoming with them. Plus the feeling was they would be fluid squads with players coming in and out.

Didn’t see any of these boys in church or art class either in this RUGBY video...
They place massive importance on balance there, which is in the tradition of the best schools in Europe. It’s probably why Nudgee has produced the third highest number of Rhodes Scholarships in the state which is based in both sport, charity and academia.
Can’t wait to see their official rugby launch video.
