Joeys 16As 59-5. Without T Wright and Finnane so close to Rd 1 score. Bring on Kings and Scots!

Scots 29- View 15.

View came out of the blocks with purpose and intent, Scots came out of bed! Simply put view wanted it more for the first 20 minutes and they were up 15 nil before ayone had blinked, thanks to some great work from the view 14, and then on the other side the view 11 crossed from a quick tap, all of this backed up by a penalty nailed over from close range. Unfortunately for view, the dream start stopped about there as Scots put up the brick wall.
Scots 6 scooted away from the 30 to score a great try after a great ball from the scots half. This was followed right on the stroke of half time by a try to the scots 14 after a great turnover from the scots forwards who worked tirelessly. The Scots backs made every effort to spill the ball dropping everthing.
The Second half was a stop start affair with plenty of drops and knock ons, definately not the spectacle everyone was hoping for.

Scots scored to great long range tries, that both of the scots wingers played a huge part in. Firstly the scots 14 looped around and after huge number of offloads and exchanges the 13 (porter i think) barged over and scored. Almost immediately a dropped ball was toed through by the captain Dunbar who won the race to the ball. From ther View put on a huge fight to score, but Scots bounced them back 2 or three times.

A pretty ordinary game all up, View worked their guts out and in reality probably deserved it more, the definately wanted it more! Scots got lucky, their second get out of jail card played this season. next week will need alot more from the boys in gold, as New wont give them the gaps View did.

Note: The scots fullback was very quiet, didnt look quite right but view maned him up brilliantly, the view centre marked him up all day and did brilliantly to contain him!

View: 3. Centre (13) 2. Flanker (7) 1. Lock (5)
Honourable mention to both view wingers, very good all day.

Scots 3. Flanker (6) 2. Winger (14) 1. Flanker (7)
Honourable mention to the scots half and the lock who went off at half time, was one of the best on ground and was missed in the second half.

To all the old boys out there from Scots, next week will be massive. Time to get patriotic people! BE there in numbers and support the boys in what will be the biggest game of the season for these boys!

Well done to all the boys today!

Wouldn't read too much into that score. An already weak opposition had a player sent off. Yes the 16s are a good side but next week will be a real test today was just a training run.

15As sounds like a really close competition, both the Riverview/Joeys games were close as well.

Kings vs Shore

The Kings 1st XV had a somewhat dominant win over the Shore school this afternoon. I thought that Kings might struggle with halfback Rory Davis and lock Ben Stacy both out injured yet credit must be given to the Kings boys who really stood up and got the job done.

Shore were in the game at half time, only trailing by two points. Yet the story of Shore's tumultuous season played out in its usual course, with both injuries and also 10 minute lapses in concentration giving the game to Kings. Kings played well, no doubt, yet Shore had all right to win that game, but seemingly just didn't want it enough.

Kings:

Kane (15) had a solid game I thought, stepping up like he did against Shore when they played earlier in the season. Tempted to say that he has the biggest boot in the GPS with some of his nudges getting Kings out of trouble numerous times. He ran hard from the back as well. Good game overall despite one or two silly errors.

Davies (12) was also good, running really hard and devastating angles. Was really classy this afternoon.

McCalman (8) was outstanding as always, making some great steals and penalties.

Shore:

Duncan (12) was the only thing stopping the score from going 50 plus in the favour of Kings. Hardly missed a tackle and continued to make spectacular cover tackles like he has the whole season. Also fronted up in offense, always making metres and not afraid to run at the big Kings centres Davies and fellow Walgettarian, Friend.

Wrench (6) was everywhere in both defense and attack. Got through an absolute mountain of work and capitalised off a Harry Emery break to score a great try. Solid player and I would tip to make some rep teams next year.

Emery (9) wasn't too bad when shifted into fly half and the seconds halfback Jackman provided some spirit and structure that Shore have been needing the whole season.

Scrappy afternoon of rugby at Northbridge this afternoon, with Shore winning the 2s, 3rds, and 4ths on A ground.

Well done to all the boys today!

Pretty fair summation Buster.
TSC very disjointed, and your comments re the loss of the TSC lock was noticeable in second half.

However, good teams find ways to overcome adversity....or poor form on the day....... and holding View to NIL points after the first 15 minutes onslaught perhaps shows the belief that they have in their team mates.

Full credit to the View skipper Kelly - led from the front, but thought Dunbar had a true skippers game today. His bust from 40 metres out was the shot in the arm that the Bellevue Hill boys needed to get them back in to the game.

And you are spot on - View did their homework and negated Kellaway a bit marking him with 2 and often 3 players - which may have opened the door to the Scots wingers who got far more involved - and were crucial in the tries that were scored.

The early frenetic pace of the match may have led to the rather disjointed stop start affair that the second half became.....but overall still an intriguing match nonetheless.

It will be an interesting match at Bellevue Hill nest week, to say the least !
