My understanding was they were booing the ref after Joeys scored a try after a joeys boy took out a New and he was down with a head knock. Joeys proceeded to score with New a man down. Which was what New supporters weren't happy with

That reason might have held some weight had they not booed at EVERY kick at goal from Joeys. (About 8 kicks in all) Very disappointing to see. I've not seen this from any other school, including Newington when they play at home.

Play should continue regardless of an injury unless it interferes with play, pretty much always been the law.
In my view too often referees stop play when a player is down well out of the action. As an old referee there are too many “tactical” injuries occur, amazing how quickly they can get up if the player is looking threatening for the other team.
and they booed each time, pretty poor form from Newington although they are not the only school, Joeys and Riverview have their flaws but they do ”respect the kicker” as it says at Twickenham.

Did anyone have a look at the Shore vs Scots 16a’s? I heard it was quite an intense game to watch!!!
Yep was there at 12 watching the game with a close eye. Shore really should some glimpses of a great team in the first 20 minutes. They were up 12-0 in no time. After that Scots 13 scored 2 try’s of the scrum the game became quite even and also quite slow. Many scrums and lineouts followed with the shore tight head winning a good scrum penalty off a defensive scrum. Was really good to see. Some highlights in the game included shores try in the 47th miniute and also Scot’s winning try after the buzzer. A real nail biting result and heartbreaking for those shore boys. Really a shame, but well done to Scot’s as the execution was top notch.

I heard from sources that the great Rex Bassingthwaight, has a relative in the shore 16a side playing in the centres. How accurate is this? And does he have the same presence Rex does on the field?

After watching the game, I wouldn’t say he is on par with Rex just yet, but scored a try and made another line break. Not sure his relationship to Rex but they're not brothers.

2 Rounds down, same story.

Callum Grantham (Newington) leads the conversion kickers in just about everything. I can't remember a better kicker.

Bede Fogarty (Joeys) is the overall points leader, with a pie against Shore helping his case

Oliver Smith (Kings) is putting his hand right up for a representative spot with his 4 pies in two games. Unreal stuff from the Kings hooker.

Despite conceding 40 today, St. Joseph's College remain the best defensive team.

And I would also say thanks to Callum Grantham, Newington College are leading the point-scoring way with St. Ignatius' College right on their tail.

Play on into round 3

Not sure it was folkes who scored in the Riverview vs kings game, I think it was the 13
 

Where's the beef

Sydney Middleton (9)
They were very good. Tempting to say Joeys' goalkicking cost them the game but I thought New were the better all-round side on the day (and I say that as a Joeys OB).

Very good forward platform giving their halves great service allowing their centres to make great post contact metres and several clean breaks. Joeys' centres are a real strength but their Newington counterparts continually broke tackles and also were very good defensively.

Newington's discipline was also better. This is something Joeys need to address as they gave up way too many penalties against Shore last week as well.
Correct.

Shore displayed a great start to the game going up 12-0 after two fast tries. But Scott’s stayed in the fight and of the back of the scrum I believe the 13 scored two individual tries. Shores forwards were dominant in set piece and ball carrying, however Scott’s backs kept finding holes in shores defensive line
