Or Michael Todd , who made a Darren Star inserted "Special Guest Star" appearance at UQ training last night. But let's rewind even further to understand what an unbridled clusterfuck this season has been at St Lucia at the top end of their Colts program. And before everyone carries on that...

Well Dee, an Ekka Show Bag is something we all got excited about and we'd get all giddy as we approached and saw all the flash and colorful packaging . We'd imagine what was inside how much we'd score. Then we'd invest and receive and look inside and find a useless plastic toy and a choo choo...

I think you are being modest RnM. Jeeps should be and deserve to be favourites. It is not just guys like Aubrey , Baker and Cooper Jones but guys like Ward and Barker are quality Colts , as is, and in particular , Ben Gergathy. Lucy and Valentine are hard working and Byrne goes all day. I...

I wouldn’t call a BBC 3 “a bunch” Bobby but irrespective of your BBC butt hurtedness , again , you were partially correct re : your assertion of players not being as good as they think they are. Although it’s more accurate to say they originate in an arc of Sunnybank - Logan to Ipswich...

You are partially correct Bobby. But tell me what stand outs from Nudgee and Brothers in the same Vintage besides Lasssssstusss have been showered with such honors ? To be fair, since they made some changes in the back row the forward pack has been OK and the 2 x young Props despite being...

I expect Norths to smoke UQ this weekend like a cheap and nasty Henri Winterman Cigar Norths were within a whisker of Easts late R1 , beat Souths (who incredibly tied with UQ last weekend) and Norths also went the distance with Jeeps in R1 and just didn't have the guns so it seems last...

Norths seem to be trending in the right direction. With a lot of these guys coming back and competing as 19 and 20 year olds they'll be an interesting watch next season. Souths have been disappointing , where to be frank , their "names" haven't gotten it done or really been in games. Not sure...

It's called being asleep at the wheel that a collective arrogance , from top to bottom , and/or , a lack of care engenders. They miss Michael Todd greatly who was the right guy. 4 x Grand Finals in Colts last year from 1 to 4 for zero wins. The writing was already on the wall and there was...

An 8 point turnaround in improvement between R1 to R2 for UQ v Brothers in Colts 1 , but noting , no Lastus Aukaki, Izzy ? or Athen Waia , whereas , UQ had all their preferred starters back in the backline in R2 with the exception of Finn Hearn at 9 and Pat Elekana. UQ missing Jake Tierney and...

Speaking of Pat Howard he too was at UQ training last night having a look at the Colts.

One hand slapping the back leaving the other one free for a reach around :)

Good news for Terrace. Guy is a dude.

I remember seeing him play for SCGC as a 12 year old down at the TAS carnival in Armidale - in the final against TSS. He stood out with his frame and shock of blond hair . But I remember thinking he had no business hitting as hard as he does. He got sent off in that final for a tip tackle too...

^Geez Luke Romano has had a fall from grace from an All Black to a Black and White Colts 1 player and getting towelled up to boot (apparently)

I agree with you R and M. Take Norths casually at your peril. I really like their Coaching personnel in particular and think that they have the right track record to be dealing (developmentally) with young players. Good luck to Norths this season.

Am hearing that Meli Dreu (IGS 18 ) is at Easts (was at Souths) and if correct this will help bolster the inside backs with Connor Claridge supposedly back with League. This gives Easts guys like James Durheim ( BBC 19) upfront with Sam Finnochiarro (Iona 18) Jacob Blyton (BBC 19) making his...

Howarth killed everyone at 17 too. But yes , shame on me for missing Ponga and I have him at 2 and Hamiso at 3 The reason I have Howarth above is purely for his size at a genuine 6’4 + and 100 plus kg . You have to take that kind of agility at that size and strength over someone like Ponga at...

No shame in getting run over by Howarth, Lukey - the best athletic back talent to possibly ever play GPS Rugby - or at least in the last 10 years. Hamiso Tabui -Fidow’s cameo at BGS ranks as No 2 as best pure athletic talent I ever saw. So I wouldn’t label Lastus as a bum slayer of also ran...

Souths figure to be pretty good and might have one of the best set pieces with Angus Sawtell at the centre of it at 2. Saipele (IGS 2019) will add some muscle upfront along with a kid from Rockhampton Grammar (name ?) The real exciting news I am hearing is Keegan Cobb at 7. I think if memory...

Careful Lukey , I posed the same questions and drew attention to the same issue on the previous page and was referred to as bitter .....goose and gander and all that stuff I guess. Anyway the Kyles rants take on additional meaning when you consider where the info comes from including their...
