Greetings All. Apologies for my absence - I've taken up a spot with a new hauling company doing long haul live loads out west, (Birdsville, Eromanga, Cooladdi, you get the jist). I'm really disappointed in what the forum has become. What was once a place of banter has now become a place of...

Rupert McGrath - The one to look out for 2025. I’ve heard rumours of the future school vice captain going under private training with the hammer at wests bulldogs. I can see him being a common team of the weaker after an injury filled 2024 season. Happy new year to the forum and hope everyone is...

Who's excited for 2025? Ladder predictions please.....

Robinson Seemed a Great Skip against both NZ sides... anyone know the details of his affiliation with the reds?

Haha love a bintang (or bintang lemon if I'm feeling a bit fruity) but there's no chance they don't contend next year. Mark my words. Early Call - Top 3 to be BSHS, BBC and GT.

Anyone know if ATC will be playing in the 2nds Comp again?

BSHS at 9 after this season is absolutely absurd. Especially with one or both of the Kefu brothers set to stick around at statey, as well as heaps of talent in the 16s and 2nds this year.

Jeez that fowler kid can play. You can tell team cohesion and communication needs to be worked on but buckets of talent on this team as said. Give them more training together and some more defensive intent and Sky is the limit for these boys.

Was Streamed on Youtube. Final Score Australia - 57 - 47 - NZ Barbarians Strong attack but weak defence from both teams. Aus will have to improve their defence ten-fold to have a shot against the All Black Unders.

Anyone else missing GPS footy?

Hey mate, This is due to a few things - Injuries - Games I got to watch (can’t watch every 2nd XV game and team lists aren’t readily Available) - Lack of replays - Info on the 2nds comp - it is hardly reported on. I tried my best with this team with the info I had and therefore I accept any...

Hey Forum, Throughout my viewings this season, the 2nd XV comp has captured me just as much as the 1st XV. The comp was extremely close and provided for great willed footy. IMO - there is something about the 2nds that just has a bit more GRIT. Alas, here is my 2nd XV TOTS - Please let me know...

Is this the wide known 'Wombat Rugby' on Instagram, he has changed jobs a lot but heard he had a lot of success in recent with the NSW Gen Blue academy before moving over to the UQ colts team, any news on why he has left if this is him? A 5th place finish with a talented roster is not amazing...

I believe he finished up his schooling this year. Rumours circulated that he was offered to repeat but he stated he had "too much respect for the GPS competition" to do that as it would be highly unfair if he did. I believe he is set to play colts 1 at Wests next year.

They certainly won't be there with the Kefu brothers set to stick around...
