I believe Makoto commenced at Kings Term 4 last year.

Fantastic to get this off the ground and get 'buy in' from every Head of Sport and more importantly, every Principal ( I did hear there was 1 or 2 principals that were hard to crack). To the group that got this done, congrats, you've gone above and beyond your job description and school boy...

Yeah nah. I'd like to think King's have a couple of other options in y11 or y12....and the 16A's are a stronger side with him. King's also have a couple of new boys joining the u16s this year.

I think you're referring to y10 boys playing up then I'm not sure that's entirely accurate. I believe there were plenty of year 10 & 11 boys playing first XV last year, blooding them for a good 2025/26 season. I'm not sure that any of the current year 10 Kings boys will be playing first XV.

I believe Oakhill have 2 trial games, Canberra Grammar on the 29th March and Barker on the 5th April. Not sure if Canberra Grammar is just the 1st and 2nd XV or other age groups as well.

I've got a different draw to the above but regarding the AW Shield, Oakhill play a trial against Barker on the 5th April so I'd say that will be the shield game.

Does a Wallabies Coach count? If so, watch this space ;). If Joe ends up leaving at the end of the Lions tour, Scott Wisemantel has to be close to the top of the list to replace him. That would be Oakhill's first Wallaby ;)

Has anyone seen a draft ISA draw yet?

I agree with your comments, the team would definitely be stronger with Polley in the forwards and Bloomfield in the centres. Lets hope the coaches (and players) see it that way too. The front row is the big conundrum with no one other than Kenna being an easy pick. I cant recall the 16As front...

I believe so, Nathan & Aaron.

Yes, I agree Evan could easily fill the #6 spot, big strapping lad he is and Bowie could also jump in there, he doesn't hesitate to stick his head into rucks where many others fear to go. Still need to sort out the front row and we've then saved the college the need for selections ;)

OK then.... I can start on the Oakhill First XV prediction. 1. 2. James Kenna 3. 4. Gary Roberts 5. Tobias Comito 6. Evan Stanley 7. Ben Visagie 8. Lukas Butler 9. Flynn Farrell 10. Calum Spooner 11. Darcy Feltham 12. Sam Polley 13. Joe Wesser 14. Cyrus Bloomfield 15. Max Giollo Nate Barone...

Good Points. So if Bloomfield stays at #3 then maybe:- 1. Hayden Lavercombe 2. Oliver Smith 3. Hasani Bloomfield 4. Rhys Perrett 5. 6. 7. Connor Durbridge 8. Isaac Fonua 9. 10. Talen Risatti (or #15) 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. Hamish Matthews. I think he may find a way into the starting squad

Me too, we can make a start on a line up and hope others will fill in the blanks, or argue about selections ;) 1. Hamish Matthews 2. Hasani Bloomfield ( I believe he's been training at #2 with that Tahs) 3. Hayden Lavercombe 4. Rhys Perrett 5. 6. 7. Connor Durbridge 8. 9. 10. Talen Risatti (or...

I heard it was the Waratahs Academy players. They weren't allowed to train at Daceyville.

I somewhat agree with you on the backrowers, it's all well and good to have a couple of ball runners but there needs to be workhorses in the pack 'doing their shitters' which was lacking, and in my opinion is lacking all the way up to the Wallabies. I blame league ;). They did have a 7 who was...

I thought this years 15s did much better than they have over the past few years.

They had a lot of their best players on the bench for most of the game and one who didn't play at all.

I hear ya..I wonder the same. What happens if Stannies and Kinross end up in the same division at the end of the ISA season. Does that mean the likes of Trinity, Aloys or Cranbrook will travel to Bathurst & Orange at the back end of the year? How long until parents and teachers get sick of...

I believe it has. I was talking with one of the Heads of Sport who was part of a small group behind the changes. He said they've now got agreement from all Heads of Sport and all school Principals.
