Thanks for posting BillWilliamsqa. What schools are the boys from? Anyone able to share the same for Queensland or Combined States?

Come on Joker or Vintage Red. You guys are well informed and write well. Have a crack.

I think its an incredible shame that at a school like Knox with those amazing facilities that they don't make watching a home Rugby game compulsory for year 7 (at least) then they would get an understanding of school spirit and the culture and values of the school. Put some "fire in the belly"...

A big Saturday at Hunters Hill with Marist College Canberra heading up the Hume to play Joeys. A big year for MCC celebrating their 50th anniversary. In the Marist tradition, Joeys and MCC have an annual trial hosted by Joeys. MCC took the honours last year. MCC will be keen to make...

The GPS #10 spot will be hotly contested; Charlie Savala (Scots) NSW I, Vincent Creagh (Joeys) NSW Shadow?, Matt Minogue (Kings) GPS Blue + called in to higher honours I think, John Connelly (Kings) GPS 1 and GnG 2017 Rising star and Dominic Easy (Riverview) GPS I?. Suspect a few boys may...

All the best B & W and look I look forward to your postings from afar. Any Newingtonian you care to nominate/offload to?

Now that is funny!

Sounds like a perfect resume to write the match reports for GPS matches each week B & W!.

Black & White said: ↑ With 21 players in year 11, for either 1st or 2nd XV they are investment for 2018. There was always a feeling that 2017 would be a lean year for our 1st XV despite some promising results against SIC W29-20 and KGS 29-17. Hence, I believe Newington will have the potential...

B&W any early form guide or update on Newington for 2018? Please have a go at naming a starting side.

Head coach has been appointed https://www.schoolsrugby.com.au/2018/news/australian-schools-team-head-coach-appointed/ Has caused much consternation and Alan Jones has weighed in (refer post #6) AJ makes a few good points (never thought I would ever say that) but I suspect it wont lead to any...

in 2017 10 boys were returning from Aust School Boys (ASB) and Barbarians (BARB) Selections in 2016. In 2018 by my count 7 are returning from 2017. Can anyone verify or fill in any blanks? 1 Angus Bell ASB (NSW) 2 Jack Winchester (BARB) (edit) 7 Luca Moretti BARB (NSW) 10 Campbell Parata...

Could be a very close competition. Make one mistake and your premiership year could be gone! Joeys beat Scots well in the trials last year but were well beaten in the main event. Joeys also were leading against Kings to then lose by 4. On form and based on who is returning from all schools, no...

With 2 rounds of summer sport and Head of the River to go, Lindomner and One eyed pirate are counting the sleeps to the start of the trial season! Thus far the key board warriors of G and G have drafted possible starting First XV line ups for Shore, Scots and Joeys for the 2018 season. Would...

Here's a possible Joeys 1st XV (2017 year/team/rep in brackets) Have bracketed a few but no doubt others would be well in contention! 1 Jack Dolan Yr 11/3rds 2 Julian Heaven Yr 11/1sts/GPS Blue 3 Nick Jones Yr 10/2nds/Aust U16 Merit 4 Jet Williams Yr 11/2nds 5 Hugh Bokenham Yr 10/2nds/Pres A 6...

Hi Rugby Bloke Yep this one was a bolter! (if its the same kid) Brett Wellington was in year 11 at Scots College this year. In 2016 represented NSW U16. In 2017 selected in NSW AAGPS 2nds. Was not selected for NSW Schools (may have been injured?) A strong hard running centre/loose forward...

The U17 7s NSW State Championships are on this weekend 14th and 15th of October at Narrabeen Academy of Sports. From these Championships a squad will be selected to represent NSW at the Nationals in Brisbane Dec 8-10. Does anyone have a draw for the event this weekend? Do we know who is...

I thought the stand outs for Australian Schoolboys over the two matches were: Lachlan Lonergan. Played a classic Hookers game and will be one to watch Will Harrison, Led well and covered a lot of territory in defence. Tom Kibble, Made an impact when he came on and worked well with Rorke Charlie...
