Laurie’s winners of the Ballymore Cup yesterday.

Any schools touring over the holidays? I think I heard Padua had a UK tour, is that for the 1sts? Also, who’s in the Ballymore Cup? It’s at the end of the holidays this year so good lead in to AIC.

I hear Laurie’s put a score on Villa, anyone there?

They seem to be aiming for the bare minimum in delivering the Olympics.

Anyone know how SPLC went against Somerset yesterday? This weekends games are Iona v SPLC MCA v St John’s Nambour SEC v SPC SLC v Villa

Both Padua and Laurie’s have been very impressive this year. For this weekend I think Laurie’s will come out on top with an 8 point win. They play the most disciplined rugby out of all the teams. They will try and keep Padua pinned in their half and look for errors. It will be interesting to...

They used to run Qld schoolboy trials at the end of term 2, would have a weeks camp and then play the national schoolboys champs in the holidays. All schools were involved and Qld did pretty well. Now the unions want control it has taken away a lot from the schoolboy pathway in my view.

In the AIC comp rules if a team has a certain number of players missing for rep teams the game must be moved. You’d think that running the U18’s State Champs at the end of week 9 would make more sense.

I think you’ll find there will be a major shakeup of GPS sport from 2025. Talk is there will be 2 sport windows, term 1 and mid term 2-mid term 3. This moves all sport away from term 4 and external exams. GPS schools are offering rugby competition with AIC schools for trials too.

Why do you disagree?

SPC v SEC SPLC v PAD According the the QRRA these are the other games this weekend.

Trials this weekend? MCA v SLC

Any results from the holidays or trials played this weekend?

Interesting that Nudgee won the Ballymore Cup.
