Well said.I agree

PS--Christian Laefano has been there since day 1 grade 8!His dad coaches 16 B team. Number 11 will be Sam Edwards who started day 1 grade 7.

Only 10?is that all.they have a long way to go(in years and numbers) before they catch a number of other shools.who cares-it's about the game not the scholarship.That issue is a separate thread on this forum all together my friend.

oh shit it's 2012 groundhogg day all over.BBC have 7 out injured this weekend against TSS including Saunders,wilkins,Quick,Jerumi.Laefano,Karem Tauga-and Bowen suspended for 1 week. They need to look at their S&C program.Cricket score predicted. Junior/lolo comeback all is forgiven. !

That is a pretty safe bet!

Rumour-7 new players in BBC number 1 team-all in grade 10 or 11.Next year is real aim.

You are correct about BBC.Losing Junior/Lolo scared the shit out of them.They based their whole team around him.Phillpots is apparently like Rod McQueen-you will know where to be 6 months away to the minute.They have also dragged in Phil White (souths A grade coach)to coach the forwards.But do...

10 from BBC-Nathan Russell, Josh Bowen, Bronson Tauakipulu, Max Dempsey, Benroy Sala, Brad Saunders, Luke Peterson, Tiaan Wilkins, Darcy Swain, Dylan Leyland.(5 are new) Wilkins is the new kid from NZ on traing bursary with the M/Storm in Grade 10!. Conrad Quick would be there(made it last...

1stxv trial for Saturday between BBC v GT has been cancelled because they both have a lot of players in 2nd stage of GPS trials.u 13 to 2nds will go ahead.looks like Bowen, McLean and quick all got through to stage 2 even though they did not play play last Saturday ( they all got in last year)...

Interesting and thought provoking summary.One thing is clear (as it has been for at leat 10 years)-if BSHS, IGS or BBC get a few injuries they will probably not have sufficient depth and will slip to tier 3.But if they keep their number 1 teams on the field(and other schools get injuries)-then...

Bowen did not play.He, like Uncle Matt, was on League duty. Flyhalf on Saturday was the boy who played flyhalf last year.-who will move to I/centre when Bowen is back.Quick (injured again!!) and Pearson(GPS 100 champ) (league) also did not play.Add in Wilkins at 15 and new half -back from Gold...

Agree with Digby. No personal or school attacks welcome from Monday Expert or anyone. Keep it to rugby . Have to agree with GSP that Monday Expert knows his stuff.

Saw one of the Qld selectors this arvo and he said "BBC (without Quick,Bowen orMclean ) beat BGS in a sramble . But TSS touched up everyone - they look ominous". He muttered words to effect that league boys like Bowen , McLean need to decide club or school .

A lot of good judges saying TSS and Churchie Are favourites - but as last year showed- luck with injuries and depth are 2 huge factors.that is why tgs,Igs and BBC always struggle at back end of the season.

You mean at the trials on Saturday ? What about the new fullback also with the Storm ?

Barring injury - Lolo must be a certainty. His 2 turnovers at the death won the test in NZ last year & Philpotts and Rapp have huge wraps on him.

Junior and Wilkins are certainties because Philpotts wants them for Aussie schools.Bowen is playing flyhalf for BBC but will be in the squad to cover 3 backline positions. But is he eligible if Storm /Cowboys have him on their books?

A little bird told me that Philpotts (Aussie schoolboys coach) is a big fan of Lolo and Wilkins

Impressive team. Might be spot on. Have you been talking to selectors? 1- Benroy Sala (Bbc) 2- Alex Mafi (NC) 3- Evander Guttenbiel (Tss) 4- 5- 6- Digger M (Churchie) 7- Brad Wilkin (Iona) 8- Junior Fakaosilea (SPC) 9- Tuttle (NC) 10- Mitch Third (TSS) 11- Noel McLean (Bbc) 12- Conrad Quick...

Yes- and can someone confirm that you are not eligible if you are on contract to an NRL club? I know that since Polla Mounter went to Bulldogs straight after British Isles tour that you must sign with ARU to tour with Aussie Schoolboys. But does that apply Qld schoolboys as well. . If so a...
