B_A , It appears if you earned selection in the 2017 Aust schoolboys team, you wont be considered for 2018 tour if they are no longer at school. They will instead play the cross-tasman tests against New Zealand and Fiji. I believe with a 'trial game' against the Aust Schoolboys Barbarian...

Heres a link to the QRFSU calendar for upcoming trial dates and locations for Qld schoolboys trials if you are keen to go along : http://www.redsrugby.com.au/Portals/10/2017/CommunityRugby/Documents/2017-QRFSU-CALENDAR.pdf

Assuming that many of the boys who were the incumbent returning from last year would be bitterly disappointed with Aust Schools rugby tour of Europe 2017 been cancelled due to ARU pulling the pin on their support of schoollboys rugby tour. UK TOURS–UPDATE ON POSTPONEMENT AND THE FUTURE by...

This is an amusing discussion topic(GPS,AIC yada yada) debate on many G&GR schoolboys rugby forums especially NSW & QLD. The 'flippant and justification' rant RR, reflects many frustrated rugby followers/lovers with the lack of real attention given to this matter. Some (may have already been...

How many of these boys were in Qld 1 & 2 last year King? I know Jordan Petaia(Combined State centre/winger) & Tristan Stanghorn(Qld 1 centre) both made Aust Barbarians last yr but had different paths getting there.

Touchwood injuries wont have too much of an impact with selection...and speedy recoveries to those boys with injuries. . . and for those boys picked in the gps squads...grab the opportunity with both hands. . .you have earned it..

Melbourne Rebels (14) James Hanson, GT 2005 Jake Schatz, ACGS 2007 Dom Shipperley, NC 2008 Sam Jeffries, NC 2009 Tom Moloney, NC 2011 Ben Meehan, BSHS 2011 Sean McMahon, NC 2011 Jonah Placid, TGS 2012 Harley Fox, ACGS 2014 Jack Farrell, BBC 2015 Emmanuel Meafou-Latu, IGS 2015 Tim Sippel, BSHS...

Concur : IGS will be top 4. Drew with NC in 1st gps trial at TSS and last 3 wks of getting some match fitness would have benefited the big boys from Ippy. Very Happy to make money on the $21 odds.

Thank you KING, You may have opened a"can of worms" my friend,depending on your perspective(player,parent ,schoolboys admin, and other stakeholders who think they are entitled). I mostly agree with your theory. However, (hypothetically speaking) its rather narrow minded if a potential wallaby is...

Is Hosea not in the calculations because of his Rebel contract, and is therefore a professional? Angus Blyth(TSS lock) signed with the REDS whilst still at school and was only prevented from making schoolboys(selected) due to injury and I believe Hosea was as well.

Not a bad list king. BUT tbh, I have not seen: 10 Campbell Parata(didnt play at TSShe may have since played?) 13 Tristan Stanghorn 14 Jordan Petaia Season ending injuries: 14 Jared Chambers ( ACL injury ) ANyone shed some light on these mystery players non appearance so far?

uuum which one of you fullas upset Lona? The ad has been removed already fro SEEK...

The REDS and the BLUES share a similar history in terms of breeding rugby talent, and both have suffered the ill fate of losing significant talent to every other franchise in their respective country. The point is, we have a very successful U/20s (winning 2 yrs in a row) program that has been a...

GO, U15's: I agree with you too early to call season proper form and outcome. BSH had at least 6 regulars from last year missing IGS is definitely in the mix as potential winners. IGS wil be in top 4 1st XV: BGS is also my pick (from 1st gps trials at TSS) as most improved(MI) Friday night...

Please see below for the 2nd GPS trials between BBC, BSHS & BGS : Location : WESTS RUGBY Grounds The games schedule will be: 2nd XV (2 x 20 min) 6.30 – 7.15 (BGS vs BSHS) 1st XV – GPS Trials (3 x 30 min, 5 min breaks): 7.20 – 7.50 (BSHS Vs BBC) 7.55 – 8. 25 (BSHS vs BGS) 8.30 – 9.00...

B& W, I agree with your views of BBC vs BSHS: 15A's. The 10, 13 & 15 look absolutely brilliant in attack. BSHS look a distant memory from the last years dominant pack and backline. BBC definitely my pick for this age group and 2017-2018 looks very bright for BBC. 16 A's BSHS look the goods. Did...

Good summary But the goose stepper you are talking about was the fullback - Jack Bowyer- Bowen( Grade10!) brother of BBC superstar 2013 ( Josh) and nephew of Cowboys/Qld - Mango Matt Bowen. The winger with the blistering speed did not get much of a go. Gungenia, I agree, JB was electric from...

I have never seen so many horrific injuries to one team in a single game of footy. Jarrod Chambers & Alex Schmidt (possible ACL) & still another one with a knew injury. Anesta severe concussion and possible season ending should injury Jordan P still out. word is,Barbarians winger/centre still 3...

Trevor Hosea, Ethan Bullemor, Hoani Ford-Stevens, Reno Gerrard, Tom Gilbert and Max Dowd are all professional athletes, as are Bailey Tautau (NC) and Daejarn Asi (BGS). I wouldn't count on them sticking their hands up for Queensland Schoolboys jerseys - what they gain from selection is...

Well done G D. Only surprise is: #13 Tristan Stanghon Aust Barbarians Anglican Church Grammar QLD he will l be in gps 1 & Qld 1.
