Speaking of Colts, it’s bloody good to see Souths colts doing well early doors. Hoping they can continue.
Anyone been watching Souths first grade play? I was hoping Joe Barakat would turn things around as he’s a good coach. Do they just not have the cattle?
Great recognition for the boys who played well in the recent u18 interstate series, but don’t read too much into it.
Last year Joeys had a backrower who was a late bloomer and not on the rep radar, then got injured and missed the first half of the GPS season and therefore the rep season. He...
Bowen will be in the 10 jersey soon enough. Only just out of 20’s and is a terrific director of traffic and strong basics.
Besides, looking forward to the early-mid 1990’s revisited with Lynagh wearing 10 for the Reds and Bowen in 10 for the Tahs!
Never play the same position as your famous...
Yesterday’s result:
Brumby Runners 15
Waratahs ‘A’ 14
Brumbies led 12-0 and their scrum and lineout were functioning very well compared to the Tahs. Waratahs made some changes and got parity or better back at scrum and line out and with some possession got ahead 14-12. Brums got a late penalty...
I’m more worried about the risk of our u18-u20 talent going to France. In the French system if an overseas player enters a club academy system before he turns 20 he is not considered an import. Makes it a worthwhile investment for them. Hence losing the likes of Meafou and Miles years earlier...
Awful post. Have you actually seen him play? Played very, very well for Newington 1st XV in Year 11. The kid made the GenBlue U18 last year as well and played exceptionally well vs Queensland and got a call up for Australia U18 vs NZ in the second game. And, I'm Joeys aligned but know a decent...
I think you might find that given its a 2-game series everyone will get one start. Pretty sure the 11 on the bench start game 2 when the best XV will start. (Here's hoping there is an agreement with NZ who are doing the same!)
Ahh pathways ... Met a bloke from the 'Gong and got a good take on why pathways are broken, and why the GPS is not the problem. He said a few years back there was a massive Illawarra junior team that made the semi-finals at state juniors and won consecutive Country junior titles. Only a few...
Daily Telegraph article about Tuesday's NSW vs QLD U18 games is behind a paywall. Here it is for those interested:

There was fancy footwork, masses of tries, big bits and explosive speed. Stars...

Great read Joker! What a terrific game we have on the cards today. Joeys on a huge roll and on an ambitious target to go 5-0 for the second round. With Jorgensen and Doyle adding the missing power ingredients they now look more than capable.
As for View, that team doesn’t know how to stay out...
