Day one was quite a lop sided affair with teams in pools. Day 2 saw some, not all, closer games. The game of the day was Sydney West V Sydney East which was won 29-26 by Sydney east with a penalty in blustery conditions after the bell. Sydney West were down about 26 nil at one point. Good Game...

Good young hooker came through two blues as a junior and now playing colts for them. Sydney West hooker - Brad Korac.

Jarrod will also be in the Sydney West team having another shot this year. I also find it interesting that players like Lachlann Taylor and Nate George were not looked at. There is not one boy from Hills Sports High who beat both Endeavour and Westfields last year. I assume there is someone from...

HJ Said "Is there any club that has more than 15 reserves for their 3rd grade Colts team? Hint - I know of at least one club that would go very close". from what I have seen, I think Eastwood would be in this group!

The CHS Rugby comp is somewhat of a joke. As far as I can tell the only thing they compete in is the Waratah Shield. The sports high schools were due to have a gala day tomorrow, but even that has been cancelled. They have zone selections, NSW selections and waratah shield for those schools...

Cameron is still at school and plays for Hills. Big young man who has some ball security issues and is working hard on his fitness. Carrying around that size would be hard work for anyone! I am told he has a younger brother who is even bigger than Cameron and is only in year 7.

I was surprised to see top 2 grades and colts for Drummoyne go down to Mosman yesterday. Mosman were quick around the park and made some of the bigger Drummoyne boys look slow. Mosman were much better in the forwards than last year.

Well Eastwood played Gordon today. While Eastwood have had quite a few injuries during the trails, there was still about 60 turned up today to play just 2 grades of Gordon, and some of them look like they doubled up. Could just be the holidays but I wasn't hearing good things about Gordon numbers.

From what I can make out, Eastwood V's Manly colts was a close run thing. I think 3rd's drew, Eastwood won 2nd's by a try and Manly won 1st's by a try. 2 good colts clubs.

I saw that Willie was playing in the pre season trials for the Waratahs. In fact he was the one that smashed James O'Connor in the Rebels trial. Incidentally, Willie and Steve Cummins are currently coaching the next group at Hills Sports High.

Some more results from trials today. Eastwood V's Easts at TG Milner. Easts got up in 3rd grade and Eastwood convincingly won 2nd and 1st Grade. Warm Day!!

He made Sydney West today, which is the first step, and he is playing colts for Eastwood this year. Playing with the big boys!!

The Hills sports team was dominant at the trials with Nathan George 7, Lachlann Taylor 4/6 the stand out forwards, also their 8 went well. The whole forward pack laid a solid foundation for ball out to the backs who were all big and fast, except the 16 who looked like he might snap, but went...

Sydney West trials were happening today at Penrith to decide the squad to go to Coffs Harbour in May. Is there anyone running around in the public school system that we should be watching for further honours later in the year?

Manly just got up over Canterbury. Was a great final. Sydney Uni won the womens and I think Parramatta won the bowl. Biggest field ever apparently, 30 mens teams and 11 womens teams.
