Frankly I don't know what the answer is. For mine, the darkest day in schoolboy sport was only a few years ago when Shore had a brain snap and thought they could win HoTR by poaching students from other schools and put together a dream 8, which was subsequently beaten by SGS and it turned into a...

Definitely shop around. They're all good, and it'll always be up to you to drive them. Oh, and tell them you're thinking about pumping a few more out in the very near future.

The thing is this, and you do not need to be a philosophy major to grasp it, but: What is good for the school/ the system/the game is not congruent with what is good for the players/students/sons. So, Your school is good because it gets great HSC results (in general) and they'll make sure you...

No. You need to decode what he is saying. It is wrong to conflate a team sport with music as the outcomes for the boys are worlds apart. Is it right that the boys look around the classroom in year 8 or 9 and know where they will play in year 12? Of course not. This is just the sort of helicopter...

Only as a back-up. The point is they are brands, each business having a turnover in excess of $50Mill most like. If one brand gets over confident and can't innovate its days are numbered. Its american car clunkers vs japanese innovation. Shore can enjoy their full lists while they can.

Seriously, this is just an advert for Shore which is competing for enrolments from all the other schools and should be decoded as such. Its intended audience is the parents of year 7 boys and has little to do with reality.

I think you're right. so long as it's open - listed on the web site - and you have to pass exams then it's a goer. Otherwise it's just all hidden from sight and open to abuse. For all I know the fullback is on a rap music scholarship, or a drama one the way he can pull those penalties.

I think it's called PDHPE

Well, if that's the best explanation, we may have a problem. Why should rugby be any less deserving than music? If I miss out on getting into the school string quartet, then I'd feel pretty bad. At least with rugby I can work on my game and get back up into the grade I want to play at. Each...

Proof will be if they do not make changes for next week. Shore 2's had a good game. If spots in 1's can't be fought then for Shore is dudding itself. Kid's maybe happy to play 2's but not the parents.

Shore's troubles is that selections always too political. We hear every year Shore 2's pump their 1's. They're 1's are not a bad team but had no answers to Kellaway and Kamp. Scots good fortune. But because sport shouldn't be political it's only right Shore went down big time.

Only half way through the season. Pretender or contender might be down to how smart the coaches are in their analysis for the rematches. Maybe even in how they might protect their key players. Strategies anyone?

Agreed. I think at Scots, thirds players will get colours as it's a GPS championship.

Nothing wrong with a Commodore, HJ, just the thing for touch parking in Bellevue Hill between the beemers. But Shore and Kings's coaches should be made to drive round in a Prius until they sort things out.

Nope but hope so. it should be a good game this week up against unbeaten TSC 3's who are coming off a bye and whose front row are working like a machine. TSC 3's taking their season as a premiership one with the new format.

Fair call HJ, but brilliant one off players like News 12 , 15 don't necessarily follow a game plan. Scots have a game plan. It's not to everyones liking because it stops one off brilliant players taking different options during the game. The Scots game plan gives a wonderful spectacle and flies...

Yep - everyone declined. Hopefully not too late to change your mind. Then we'd know they had an import, then we could bag them some.

Looking forward to the 3s. Only had trial matches so far. Hope SGS can put on some impressive wins on the trot. 3's from the big 6 will be made up of ex 1's and 2's from year 12 wanting to concentrate on HSC, and other young guns kept on the leash relishing having a crack at SGS, High and...

Since there is no scientific way of knowing how someone will slot into a team, it should be based on internet voting.

What a pity the relay teams can't run with a rugby ball. Sprinters all at sea when they have to carry, so if you're relying on guys returning from athletics you might have cause for concern.
