    QLD GPS Rugby 2017

    Interesting views from GD and trw of TCE & Churchie: The consensus that the games (trials) were not a rugby spectacle from a spectators perspective is accurate and it WAS NOT for that PURPOSE!! However, from the coaches perspective, lots of interesting match ups and combinations that will be...

    QLD GPS Rugby 2017

    Thanks Realist. When I left to watch BGS vs IGS, TGS were ahead. BSHS looked quite small compared to TSS & TGS. BBC, TERRACE, & Churchie dont have any standout advantage NC & IGS have massive packs but BGS look quite a balanced side.

    QLD GPS Rugby 2017

    A beautiful day on the gold coast for the gps schoolboys 1st XV trials. As expected, the 30 minute games did not give too much away as These are in keeping with 'trialling combinations'. However very noticeable the number of new faces appearing in the BGS team. They were the surprise team...

    U/15 A's. Early stages yet with trials continuing for at least 3 more games?, but perhaps BBC are firming as an early favourite for the top spot. BUT a huge unknown is coaches may still be "trialling" combinations. My top 3 still looks intact: BBC BSHS IGS

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2017

    The ARU has come under much scrutineer from the rugby community as of late. The obvious trigger appears to be the failure of our Super rugby franchises to compete with our kiwi neighbours and now the rumblings an Ozzie franchise will be dropped.. Now the ARU allegedly are withdrawing their...

    QLD GPS Rugby 2017

    Based on the 2016 RESULTS: BSHS IGS BBC GT TGS NC TSS BGS I dont think much will change with the results this year either. A few changes(imports) does not always translate into instant winning. The old saying is "A champion team will always beat a team of champions" The real outcomes will...

    Rebels v Reds, Sat 13 May @ 7:45pm

    If the hammer does fall on the REBELS and all is done and dusted, there are some attractive prospects in this lineup the REDS could do with. Sef F has had a fair share of game time and his 'audition' time is up. I would love to see young Lomax playing for the REDS. Raw but can be in the mould of...

    King, yes Xavier is Latrells brother. Was big as a 12 yr old then never grew like Latrell. Very skillful so he could make the transition as a 10.

    Thank you for the surnames KING. my source suggests: Sef is a tall lanky yr 11 lock. Akiai is a yr 12 boy who has lots of speed but not sure how he will transition into 1st XV standard. Tai Watkins is a league guy. Apparently very fast but is susceptible to the high ball. I do like your...

    I believe Esei has only just turned 18, so most likely the reason. Also, hes change of attitude to embrace the professional pathway has transformed his overweight glumness frame to a slick and streamlined athlete who will make an immediate impact and transition into super rugby much faster as...
