I really think TSS is gonna dissapoint this year, Churchie played alright but it was nothing majorly better then there pre-season performances, I predicted a Chuchie win and they shouldve won, Poor fullback missed that kick, at the death.

Hey Harry, managed to get to watch the Nudgee Vs State High game on the weekend and I'll tell you what, the Morree madness Ben Didonna, number 6 was absolutely clinical. Simply couldn't fault the kid. He ran with vigour and intensity and tackled with hatred and pure psychoticness, he was simply exceptional and will go under the radar the whole season as just a kid who goes pigging, but he is far more than that.
Also managed to watch the Churchie vs TSS replay, although the TSS team were dominant and looked like winning Churchie somehow managed to pull off a miracle and propel themselves into a tie with a late try from some kid who I haven't heard much of. Now don't get me wrong the kick to win the game for them wasn't right in front, but goodness me you gotta make that. Angus Underwood I believe his name is, obviously cracked under the pressure and simply couldn't handle the mental aspect of the kick. Anyways just some of my thoughts on the weekend. Keen to hear some of yours.

Hard to look past Nudgee colleges twin towers, 0 chock malfunctions and a dominant lineout were a huge help in their victory. Declan “dropkick” McGuire will be one to watch if he doesn’t get dropped to the 3rds next week.

Terrace completely fell to pieces once IGS worked out the weaknesses - poor workrate from the forwards who seemed to be playing for themselves when they could be bothered getting involved - some did a lot of watching of the ruck. Masterclass from Tyson Walker, seems to have finally stepped up to his potential.

Hey guys, who in your opinion had the performance of the week? It's a hard decision to make, as I cannot seem to single one out, as there were many stellar performances on. Would love to hear what you guys have to say.

Hey Rugby Fanatic,
Know I've already said this in a previous thread but I simply cannot get over Ben Didonna. Not only is he a classy player with a bright star studded future ahead of him, but he has got a great origin story to go along with it. Raised in the humble and quiet town of Moree he came to Nudgee seeking something bigger then himself, eventually finding himself in the 16Bs and then the next year being dropped from the firsts, only to get the call up with a few injuries and finish the season in stellar form. Not only does the kid hit like a truck but he has a lot going on upstairs, a very good footy brain on him which makes him a perfect edge forward, will be interesting to see how he matches up against some big boys in the coming weeks such as Tusi from TGS. My money is Ben Didonna will shut him down with his ferocity and firey defence as well as anticipation with his footy IQ. Like to hear what everyone else reckons.

Yes, Ben Didonna has been a standout for me ever since I heard about his underdog story into the first XV. Happy to hear that he's carried his form from last year into this season.

TGS v BBC game for TGS Rhymen Tusi, Keegan Cook and Jack Brown best on the park for me, Myles Rosemond was solid and created opportunities, just needs to at times let the ball go early to his backs outside him.
Jack Randell was Grey O’Neil were solid for BBC

How did BBC lose when they had 7 Reds players ? Oh that's right Dan Leo was also Reds coach. He overlooked players previously selected like Jack Brown etc... for BBC boys. BBC were educated in every age division !
