    What is the driver of making that substantial investment? If it is important for the kids of BBC to win the rugby, why was there only about 30-50 BBC kids there (at home) to watch their 1st XV (and there was barely "peep" out of them)? Who drives the decision to have that much money invested in...

    Vale Digby Digby our old mate who has written some great posts on this thread has quit and won't be back on it . A shame . I will miss his wit. I saw him on Saturday and he said " too much bullshit on scholarships and not enough talk on rugby. Every school in qld GPS imports so why is a topic of...

    YesBBC 1st xv have a peculiar smell about them. I have smelt it before at Oaklands Pardade in 2012. Smells a bit like individualism and ego mixed in with injury after injury. Who does opposed training on a Thursday before a match. That's 3 out for the year.

    [quote="swillo5, post: 646074, member: 5866"]I've been reading a while mainly to get game reports and see how the GPS comp is shaping up. This thread is dominated by posts/discussion about BBC. About 50%. seems disproportionate given there are 9 schools in the comp and given that BBC aren't...

    Correct. How much did the cowboys pay to "buy out " a broncos contract for a ??current 1stxv fullback .

    I would not be too critical . I know GT did not win an under 16 or open match despite last years 16b to d being undefeated. But as has been said earlier on this thread what happens in under 16 does not always reflect on what happens the next year in opens- especially against TSS and NC. This...

    It is not about twinning : it's about planning and commitment. GT 13c team were warming up and told :"sorry - no game. Boarders are away"That's why NC , TSS , ACGS all had full teams with most boarders playing.At those schools - no trial,you get dropped next week . At BBC it's all fine to...

    Good old BBC - what a rabble. Who else would schedule a camp and a trial on the last 3 days of the holidays but NOT open up the boarding house( and not arranging billeting). It gets worse- when hardly any of the 120 odd boarders who play rugby turn up - and they can't field a C team in any age...

    What are the BBC 15a like. Any new players and I have heard BSHS have got a few players in and a good coach . Might be a surprise this year.. But don't know if it's true . NC 15'a don't look as strong as previous years although NC were average last year . Churchie look solid in trials and ippy...

    Ikitau is the only 15A from last year to be in the 1st's that I have heard at this stage. With importing to the BBC especially some great WA boys the rest of the 15 A'S will find it hard to make the 1st's. One thing needs to be made clear.BBC did not chase/recruit the WA boys(2 of whom will...

    Well said. BBCs only problem is they "started" identifying talent 10 years too late.
