Maybe that's because they weren't running two age groups up, smashing the record. I have no problem with the celebration, because as previously mentioned, Riverview was the only school to applaud the winner of each individual points tally. Furthermore, Joeys wouldn't applaud because school...

If we wanted to have a go at schools being bad sports, it's not only victory celebrations we have to look at. Ignoring that thread not to be named, one only has to look at the antics of a certain Kings boy running in the Open 100m several years ago. After two breaks, the Riverview competitor was...

Apologies for believing that I could abbreviate the plural without any grammar Nazi's coming to the rescue. I assure Monsieurs Jarse and Grant that I meant no disrespect, and hope that their 'missus'(es) feel no disrespect also. Regardless, I must apologise to my Rhetoric French Teacher, Mme...

While I agree with Mrs Grant and Jarse, I also believe that they have the relevant skills to simply ignore boys dealing with the stress of puberty and the HSC. Not everyone on this thread has a negative intent, nor have we such a well paying job as to be able to focus our times and attentions on...

It is only too obvious to see the difference between school boys with a free period and those actually seeking some discussion and clarification on the coming season. With Riverview trialling against Waverly on the weekend with a large squad in 1sts and 2nds, I was keen to know which other GPS...

Yes, it seems quite the place to be. Unfortunately for all us would be assistants, at Riverview at least, their is a practice of Senior Students acting as managers. This year it seems that Daniel Kilpatrick (of 2nd XV fame, sitting out this year as mentioned earlier) and Thomas Morgan (Coxswain...

Any chance of the aforementioned Faul coming up to the 1st XV? I had seen him at the U-16 National Champs playing in the Indigenous side, and he had a great running game for a young man his size, though fitness and the breakdown are certainly areas of improvement. Possibly his lack of experience...

I believe that it is a season non-attendance. I have been told that he is in fact managing the side, which some might say could be just as strenuous as playing, what with the obvious pressure on a Riverview team shaping up as firm favourites. This may pose problems to the View team, but possible...

Also, aka_the_think has just started some really great discussion on another Page, well worth the look for all those rugby intellectuals out there: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/threads/nsw-schools-debating-2014.13800/ I am not often keen on debating, preferring the keen arts of...

It seems that aka_the_think has a great understanding of the Riverview Game, so I was just wondering what he could tell is about the rumours surrounding Kilpatrick (Prop for 1sts in 2014, 2nds in 2013) not playing. Rumours about him not risking further injury as he had several shoulder/knee...
