I just noticed there is 3 Western Force Academy players in the Sydney Uni team. Are they flying back and forth every week?

Think so. Will have Bowen, Lynagh and Mason Gordon also competing for the 10 job with the U20s so it's hard to see him being there in the final squad. I think he will get a few games in 1st Grade at some point. Uni don't have many Super Rugby guys coming back in the backline.

If there's no Academy/Force A games on maybe it's a better place to have them play. If they are development squad players they don't training with the Super Rugby Squad every session anyway.

Fowler has two more years in the U 20's. Eligible for the Schoolboy and U 18's this year.
Uni have too many points in Colts so Leahy has to play grade.

I do agree with the comments about playing 80 minutes at club level, it's clearly improving Bowen and Wilson's game. Leahy from UNI also had a great debut with a try. Was interesting seeing Fowler play 20 minutes for 1st grade, as the commentators have said, he will improve and gain more experience. It goes to show how absolutely insane the Joeys backline for 2022 was.

Bowen deserves a starting chance for the Tahs. Donaldson though sufficient overnight just doesn't cut it at the next level.
Fowler and Leahy good footballers but not first graders and showing with Uni struggling. Should be playing Colts but points stopping that.

The way Lolesio is playing for the Brums I expect to hear any day he’s going to Japan.
It will piss me off to no end if I then see Bowen playing for them but it’s the exact thing ACT have proven to be so good at

That side y day could easily win the comp & bomb out in dramatic fashion. They just want to put the foot to the floor for 80 min! helps when Wilson, Bowen & Moses have so much front foot ball.

Happens with young teams. The more they play though the stronger they’ll get and less likely the bomb out becomes.
Not an Easts fan but I love watching young touted players perform.
