Even moving down to cbr or out of the Sydney spotlight can do these kids a world of good. Looking at some old Kings boys Lachy Smith and Sam McLachlan both signing with Brumbies whilst playing with the Eagles.

Even having a crack overseas like Lotu Vunipolou who couldn’t even make 1st XV at Kings and by the end of the 20s World Cup was starting prop for Aus. (he was in Uni 2nd colts all last year).

Perfect precipitation on the north shore, softening the turf and bringing out the green.

The Swamp is looking magical, just waiting on the Shore mall to go over off a beautiful line out from The Galtitude.
