    AIC Rugby 2018

    Morning, I'm not really fussed either way. I simply passed on what I read. It did throw the AIC selction process out a bit, but personally I don't really mind. As I said earlier, I live in Toowoomba now and I know that selection in the Darling Downs team, no matter the sport, is held in very...

    AIC Rugby 2018

    Yeap I agree with that. QLD Rugby should also play a bigger part in the coordination of selections of all teams, i.e. methods. numbers etc. The best players should have the opportunity to play in the best teams against the best teams, no matter their conference, GPS/AIC etc. Which I think had...

    AIC Rugby 2018

    Hi, I'll go back an read my earlier comments however I do not think I ever attempted to justify the number that SPC got selected as being accurate, correct, fair or justified. I simply stated what I knew. You are correct, I am not a selector, nor do I have a son at SPC. I am an old boy...

    AIC Rugby 2018

    MMMMM, I'll try. Apparently, it was agreed that they would get a better assessment of the players they had if they, for e.g. had four teams named GREEN, GOLD, RED, WHITE of players selected from across the QLD schooling system playing against each other as it was proposed that the teams would...

    AIC Rugby 2018

    Please find list below. I have found the comments regarding the selection of particular players over others due to a particular coach rather disappointing. The AIC selection process involves the coaches of all 1st XV teams and the respective Rugby Director/sports master from each school and...

    I've got the names but I'll keep them to myself for the moment until the boys have been notified. They didn't pick a team rather a squad. They haven't named reserves/shadows etc. I think they'll take all 27 players.

    Big surprises coming out of the AIC selection meeting last night I hear. Especially in terms of the numbers being selected from one particular school. Good to see a little bit of respect being thrown that way for a change.

    That is not the AIC's doing. I believe all schools, GPS included, will be in the same boat. With the QLD school system moving away from the OP score to the new system (name escapes me at the moment), there will essentially be no year 12 students at school during term 4 outside of exam blocks...

    AIC Rugby 2017

    They have attempted on more then one occasion and have been knocked back and there is no apparent change to that stance anytime soon. Downlands in Toowoomba are in the same boat. Downlands even offered to travel away for every game for two years in an attempt to broker a deal which still...

    AIC Rugby 2017

    Sorry my mistake, I got my dates wrong. I'm not necessarily a SPC supporter, just a rugby supporter in general. My comments were based on looking at the various results from around the grounds and getting to the odd game, which ever is closest to where-ever I am on a weekend. From...

    AIC Rugby 2017

    Grant you are obviously biased towards SLC (As you say you have watched all of their games) but how do you honestly pick 7 SLC players in the AIC 1 side? SPC did a real number on them last week with a number of the forward pack going missing after the first 15 minutes. Given SPC are...

    And Villa still lost. SPC should be congratulated for starting their season off with a win away from home with virtually a new team.
