The standout in the villa forward pack is definitely their open side flanker. He has reserved for the first and ran on against Pats? Without him the 2ndXV forward pack would fall to bits. No other standouts in the team.

Any word from the Lauries camp as to what they have planned between now and next season? Any drastic measures being taken? It will be interesting to see how they plan on developing the u14's, I've heard them be compared to the Villa 2010 team and Iona 2013 team. Any word on the development...

Is there any word on why they were training once a week? Rep training? or lack of commitment? I believe that Lauries coaches did the right thing, however would these three specific player have really made the difference when lauries lacked the fundamentals?

I can confirm he is not the son of Bill Sankey. I believe his father went to Marist, not sure if it was Ashgrove though.

I agree. Whilst I do believe they did the right thing - excluding the players who lacked the commitment, setting an example for boys in younger grades - it definitely did set the Lauries XV back, particularly in the outside backs. Not sure if I'm correct in saying this, only an assumption, but...

Anyone else excited to see Byrne an Sankey link up in AIC 1? Two of the best ball playing forwards I have seen at a schoolboy level in recent years. Both players have a solid defensive game, and their jumping abilities are sensational. Hopefully they can help boost the AIC 1 pack and give the...

'RuncornXV' no need to get upset. You should be happy slc got one player in the team. No disrespect to Hansen-Luther but watching the game on Saturday he was no better than the young Villanova prop, Ethan Henderson?

Thanks for the clarification, also what's the go with 7 Eddies players? Not disagreeing with the decision but thought it was 6 player put forward?

Where is this rogue Pats player you speak of?

I think you'll find Lauries may make a late come back

Villa 45 def Lauries 19. On a side note Villa 3rd XV 19 def Lauries 3rd XV 12 - Game of the season in my opinion.

Is there any other potential from the Villa team?

Thoughts on Felu (12) from Villa? Haven't seen him play but heard there's some hype around him

Final scores for the weekend?

I disagree. I believe they still have Villa and Pats to play (Is this correct?). If both teams play at the high standard which was seen on the weekend they will be hard to beat. Particularly Villa at home (I believe they beat peters 38-24?)
