    NSW AAGPS 2024

    There’s no way all those year 10 Kings boys will play up. Probably only talen and 1 other but not mentioned above.

    NSW AAGPS 2022

    Really glad someone is trying to do this, thanks. I would try to keep the points distribution as flat as possible even if it appears to disadvantage the firsts. Remember that a good rugby program values the 13Bs equally with the firsts, and a weak program simply buys a 1sts. A basic wins v...

    Great experience for the boys and very special for that individual.

    NSW AAGPS 2022

    Joeys, Knox AND Barker all improved through the season. I would argue that Knox improved the most because they started average. ‘Trials are trials’. A game between any of these 3 teams would be interesting now. Bear in mind though, that there was plenty of passion in the J v I and B v K games...

    CAS Rugby 2022

    Answered above. It’s sounds like I’m whinging but I want to support it. I understand the challenges for the schools of getting as many teams games as possible…..Field availability especially with all the rain, trying to match competitive teams, busing boarders to all parts of Sydney…..just hope...

    CAS Rugby 2022

    the ‘injuries/absences’ list in opens also becomes the ‘who doesn’t want to play’ list when playing schools with few teams.

    CAS Rugby 2022

    Like this. I think The Kpi’s for the people organising it should be: 1) close scorelines, and 2) # of games. Teams winning by 40-50 shouldn’t happen. At least 1 week of the CAS comp had the knox As not getting a game and the Cs containing about 45 boys. Some weeks only the As and Bs got...

    CAS Rugby 2022

    A lot has changed since the ‘90s in Sydney private school rugby-there are a lot more islander and league players running around. Probably a bigger issue in qld but similiar issue here. I gotta say though that there are also some massive white kids. I watched 2 14 year old schoolboy games last...

    CAS Rugby 2022

    It wouldn’t surprise me if GPS want this and it has nothing to do with CAS. I hope the CAS schools are able to find games for everyone which are competitive (and safe) for all players each week in a H&A format.

    CAS Rugby 2022

    The CAS needs to do more to support rugby. The depth is concerning. Aloys and Trinity are struggling to get B and C teams. Even the school that wins the 1sts, Barker, the performance of lower grades (if they have them) is weak. The competition is only as strong as the weaker schools and these...

    I think 2 Knox boys were in the wallabies forward pack last night.

    CAS Rugby 2022

    Played on Knox 1 which was a great experience for the boys. Barker has some strong players - I’m not a B parent. I have to say though, this CAS age group is far weaker than their GPS counterparts.

    NSW AAGPS 2022

    Confirming that you said only 22 players in opens rugby? Sad if true. It feels like the GPS and CAS might be asleep at the wheel or at least more should be done to create a good rugby experience for High. Big winning and losing margins doesn’t help anyone. It kills the sport.

    Thanks for the 3rds reports. Kings have big forwards and bully sides physically. Shore may say they were dirty but I didn’t see it that way.

    NSW AAGPS 2022

    a trophy for the winner of a ‘school championship’ as well as recognising the winner of the 1sts and 2nds, would be a good idea. Points awarded for winners across grades and age groups. It would reduce the desire by schools to do the thing that can’t can’t be mentioned here, and highlight the...
