State Champs U16 team lists for last year's finalists. They came with numbers, so I assume these are starting numbers (or at least the numbers the boys will be wearing). Parramatta 1. Jarrod Matairavula 2. Jack Ulu 3. Puipaa Maa 4. Matthew Matson 5. Paea Pua 6. George Taufa 7. Riley Jacobson...

Hooker is a postion I can't say that I've got a handle on at the moment CTPE, as one of the, obviously, more learned contributors to this forum. Look no further than George Donnelly, the Norths hooker (in the AICES side for schools). Class act and also one hard little bugger. Reminds me...

Robbie Wolfgramm would have to be up there. Don't think any player in any position has a record to match him from last year. NSW rugby union U15 and Australian Schools U15 merit rugby league team. Reaching the highest level available in both codes suggests that the lad might have a bit of talent...

Let's get this straight Tigger... New are not MY "crash hot team"... I don't watch too much school rugby, but what I have seen suggests a quality New side, with a bloody good back row. I am not seeing things through the same Navy and Gold tinted glasses as yourself... The 7 you are referring to...

I would have to agree with that. They play AICES first up right on Sunday ?

Good job you worked all that out during the last part of the game ! Don't take it personally sweet cheeks...

Time for bed kiddies, boarding master is calling...

What were you doing in the showers all that time after the end of 14 Cs ?

Hey mate, not sure what your point is ? Fully understand it was a trial, as per the 7th word of my comment. And what do you mean by mini field ??? Fully understand that Parra will be a different proposition at State, just commenting on what I saw...

Did you watch yourself ? Or are you reliant on info from Scots people ? Not a dig, just interested...

They don't seem that good because you don't know them ?!?! Good job we have your expert knowledge of the game to weed out the also-rans. For the benefit of Magpie, the only boys I know are Will Davies and James Parker. Will goes ok and James is a quality player (one of the stars of Manly's...

Said by who ? And no it wasn't Baldwin ? How do you define shocking ?

Anyone with anything bad to say about the whole New back row is living in cloud cuckoo land ! They are quality from what I have seen...

Selection in these squads is, of course, by it's nature selective. Because a player is in this program doesn't mean they ARE the best, and because they are out of it doesn't mean they aren't. Think that message is equally important for players on either side of the fence. At the end of the day...

Slight correction CTPE, he is in the ARU's NSW NGS, the next stage up, one of only a handful of 16s... which includes, topically for this thread, Joey Lussick.

Parra played Manly 16s in a trial on Sunday. Although they won by maybe 7 tries to nil, they didn't dominate our guys as much as I thought. Partly due to a number of Manly lads fronting up, but they looked a fair bit out of touch at times. They also looked to be missing a few regular players...

Yes, it is a bit North side biased, however that's probably a reflection on the games I have been able to get to ! Jarrod is missing because I believe he is now at TAFE so maybe wouldn't qualify for schools ? Otherwise he would probably be my 3. Malaki is not long term as far as I have been told...

Here is my list of U16s that should be there or there about for the schools side... Most of this is based on watching club, so if I've missed kids out that don't play club, forgive me... 1. Malaki Afele - Trinity - CAS - Parramatta 2. George Donnelly - Pittwater House - AICES - Norths 3. Troy...
