He is greatly missed from the Waverley team that lost him.
Quite a few Waves boy sadly ending up at Joeys these days. A frustrating trend!

Ref calls can’t be changed, let’s all just be happy it’s a double round comp now and a loss or two doesn’t completely ruin a teams season.

Disgraceful, This forum is not a place for taking the piss and spreading lies. It's obviously not great what happened, but the Scots 5 definitely did not punch him 10 times or step on his head, there were only a few jersey pulls and nothing further than that. I was hanging around after the game and saw 5 apologise, and the 6 wasn't holding any grudges. They both agreed the red was a bit excessive. @k1ngs4lyf, remember this is a forum that is centred around young men, I would advise you to keep your comments truthful and respectful.
The last DOR killed things. It will take time to unpack. But in Ben Herring, we finally have a decent DOR. Going to not happen overnight but with him leading I'm confident it will get better.

Actually all of New were big units. Amazing how they were only in the first xv. Someone needs to have a word to their pommy coach too. His attack on the ref when things did not go his way was disgraceful. He needs to set the example not be the example. Joeys played like lions today and there was not much in this. The Side that lost today at the hill would have felt that they could have / should have won it.

Agreed, 2nd XV halves were superb while 1st XV halves were a little ponderous and outplayed by their Newington counterparts.

How do you seriously go to this effort when the advantage call starts at 72:30 for a not rolling. Ref's arm raise simply reminding of advantage, a minute long advantage is not cries for anarchy. Enjoy the rugby.

This is such a flawed argument.
12 of the Newington first 15 who beat Joeys today came to the school in year 7 or 8.
Before making a claim please make sure its correct first

I disagree mate. I was sitting close by to where this incident occurred and I saw the whole thing. Grubby move from the Scots boy and multiple punches were thrown.

If boys aren’t looking off a certain criteria, some individuals are quick to judge as it’s out off there beaches bubble….
shame this is life in 2025!
Stop introducing such logic and facts to the discussion!

Exactly, don’t forget Auggies as well, who are absolutely denuded of talent by Joeys and others and still they manage to dominate the ISA.
I am actually having drinks with a couple of recent ex-Auggies come new Joeys parents tonight.
Other schools (Kings, New, Scots) probably are more obvious about it, but Joeys literally invented combing the mostly Catholic school system far and wide for talent a very long time ago.
If Joeys did actually have a Kindy rest assured they would absolutely be scouting the Northern Beaches and Hills preschool rugby pool for talent

To be fair the 2nds halves were aided by a dominant forward pack. in ones joeys fought hard, but the ball was slow. I thought we kicked too much in the first half. big men tire

What even is that?

True, and one of the reasons for the slow ball was New's habit of lying on the wrong side of the ruck. It was frustrating they weren't pinged for it but fair play to Newington. If the ref lets it go then you take full advantage.

Hey bulldozer, I personally do not think shaming this scots boy is the right use of this platform. He's going out there playing good footy and putting his body on the line. I understand that strikes were thrown (although only jersey grabs and shoves - definitely no stomping or any other outrageous accusations i've heard), but you have to respect that this lad had to sit on the sideline for a big portion of the game, and watch his team win in great fashion, without him. I'm sure if this was someone who went to the school you support, if you do support one, that you certainly wouldn't be saying these types of things.
Look mate, I am not an expert around here but pretty sure we look to play the ball not the man. Let's stick to the guidelines and keep this forum flowing.
Ruck Yeah out
