    Mate you seem to be good friends with Devine. Judging by your posts you are from Ashgrove.

    not trying to be smart mate, just stating the facts. I'm sure there have been plenty of boys get a run with the NGS that don't play in the 1st XV at their school. The whole idea of the program is to identify and develop talent accross the board in rugby union, maybe they see something in a kid that their school coaches don't.

    Jealously isn't pretty mate. Let's not talk down someone's achievements because we didn't accomplish them ourselves.

    If that's the same Isaac that played fullback for GPS 3, Yes he did play very well but there were a couple of times that tries could've been scored if he had let the ball go

    I believe it was, was he wearing a blue headgear? and yes he does occasionally not throw the pass when it needs to be thrown but he will learn

    todd dawson although a good offensive player cannot defend very well and makes poor decisions at times as he chooses the boot over the pass

    Have to agree with hotman. Todd Dawson needs some training on the defensive side of things

    I agree with you that they are quite bias towards GPS, however based on the previous QLD teams and past GPS and AIC Results It is evident that no more than 3 AIC Players will make the QLD U16 team, Sam Clarke being one of them. Judging on the Queensland 1, 2 and 3 Teams which have been selected the team will be filled up of BBC, TSS, TGS and Nudgee Players. With the exception of possibly Ben Laxon of GT as Number 8 and possibly a player or two from Churchie and State High. James Tuttle from Nudgee will captain the QLD U16 Team for sure.

    Are the selectors the BBC and TGS coaches?

    Look out for Lindsay Collins [loose forward] from Padua College - stand out player in the AIC 1stXV comp this year.. he will turn heads - great skill set: really strong carry with a good offload, big hitter and good on the ball.

    Never heard of him, does he play 6, 7 or 8? He'll have some strong competition from players like Jayden Rodwell and Alex Mafi (if he players backrow and not hooker) from Nudgee, TSS boys Joel Brown and Isaac Peterson, Tom Spencer (BGS), AIC 1 openside Sam Clarke (Marist), Ben Laxton (GT), etc.

    Bear, I thought Paulo and Hagan were out for the season with injuries / illness. Can anyone confirm? Bronson is playing prop for BBC, so it may be too big an adjustment to just move to open flanker. I thought Rodwell may have figured in the backrow.

    I would definately have Rodwell in the backrow somewhere. He played well last year for QLD Red when playing up an age group. Strong ball carrier

    Bronson has been res. prop for BBC & also been running as flanker sometimes. BBC also has been giving a lot of time time to another u16 @ 6, Peterson, who played 6 for QLD u15s. Should also look at Tittor from Toowomba who played @ 15 for combined catholic u18's.

    6. Bronson Tauakipulu (BBC)
    7. Jayden Rodwell (NC)
    8. Ben Laxton (GT)

    Could easily end up being the best possible backrow. Does anyone know about the front-row contenders? Depending on how good they are, Bronson could end up at either prop or hooker with someone like Sam Clarke, Joel Brown or Tom Spencer moving into 6/7.
