Villa close out round one 53-12 victory versus Eddies .

Trial at Villa Park - Villa 1st defeated Padua 29-26 after coming back from 26-14 down. Villa also had 2 yellow cards

Villa had front line props not available .. one was not playing and the other was substituted 10 mins in first half due to head injury

Villa V SLC - wet weather footy - both sides look rusty. I know it’s Villa’s first run but not sure if Laurie’s have had a game before this. Score was SLC 12 - Villa 10 - 2 tries each Not a bad hit out for a trial. SLC gave away some stupid penalties by verballing the ref.

Jaden Shelton goes real good , glad to hear he started at 2. I thought there was another lad in front of him though as first choice hooker ? Maybe I got that wrong ... Shelton is a good player though so glad to hear. Agree Iona should be strong but my concern would be their depth across the park...

Prediction re Villa ... at least 5 or 6 year 11s will play regular 1stXV , these are the core of Villa’s strong age group with 2 or 3 returning players from last year with the balance being last year’s 2nd XV who ran 2nd to MCA. They know how to win and will trouble some sides. I can’t see them...

Just heard on the wire Villa had 3 reps for AIC #3 Tyreece Felu #8 James Livingstone #11 Joshua Jacobson (scored 5 tries against Padua) Seems reasonable that these boys made it but don’t know whether they are preferred starters or part of the wider squad

Yes On paper Ash should win - but Villa just keep getting better this year - the backs have looked great all year - agree Ash pack probably better - the difference this year for Villa has actually been their defence - not in all games mind you - but in most... Iona they were leading for a lot...

Yep I hear that - and look pragmatically speaking Ash should beat Villa - however Villa is hot at the moment and they believe - I said a week ago - mindset is a funny thing - bring that game on it will be great , at least I hope it is - everyone get to ash next Saturday !!!

Jesus H. Christ...: poor old Eddies - they have work to do don’t they ? Villa 2nds destroyed Peters 51-0 - that’s sets up the 2nds battle at Ashgrove next week as well - a battle Royale for the 2nd XV premiership as a curtain raiser to a premiership decider in the 1sts ?? Wow - get to Ashgrove...

Any other results ????

Wow!!! Well done Pats - I thought this might happen ... so Pats will beat Padua fairly well, Iona will smash Laurie’s and what will happen at Ashgrove ?? Boy oh boy.. Ashgrove should win that but the form Villa is in .... strap yourselves in for that one!!!!

Full time at Villa Park Villa 86 Peters 14 - massacre. Is the word I’m looking for

Villa 43 Peters 7 Halftime.

Yep I hear ya ... . but let’s see what happens - and my understanding is that it’s 7 front line players out not 5 and in 2020 look at Villa’s current year 9s for your answer - all 3 teams are travelling well and as the 2020 year 11s will provide the depth required for the 2020 seniors. That’s...

Garry - is my understanding that Teams will be announced probably the week after last round after the coaches have their usual haggling session- hope it’s not like the classic “Life of Brian” clip :)

Does anyone know if they are staying with the open age group next year ? Or are we going back to U16s?? I have heard that the reason the comp went to Opens was because this was the first year of the “preps” coming though as was discussed earlier in this thread - however I have heard that it may...

Yep sure is - Year 11 lad - he returns next year after he injured his shoulder (pretty sure it was shoulder) he would have been a genuine AIC contender and was the first choice winger I believe - his pace and footwork through contact is excellent. Pity for him but at least he gets another crack...

With regards to AIC selection - from Villa there wouldn’t be many if any.. they are a good team when they click but not a lot of real stand outs - the exceptions to that is maybe the 11 I mentioned above (Josh Jacobson ) and maybe the 8 James Livingston. The captain Lachlan littleton is a hard...

Villa’s 11 Josh Jacobson scored 5 tries against Padua and must be in contention if he keeps that form up.
