    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2013

    Pretty high if you move from your local High School to a GPS School at the age of 15 or 16!

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2013

    Sounds great if they were still in Primary School,but they are not. This is an important development pathway for players hoping for a career. For people to take up these spots,who are already committed to another code,because they can, is wrong.

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2013

    He wasn't robbed.He had a few chances to impress and didn't. he didn't play badly,but did not excel. Maybe a little unlucky when you consider who was picked. But in fairness he is not as versatile. League the Stronger code? Of the 4 I know of that trialed.One had great footwork and a fend,the...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2013

    If he has a contract to play Rugby League for this year and has a bonus written in his contract,if he makes Mungo Schoolboys,and he has a contract for next year,WTF is he doing at a Rugby selection trial this year?

    Of course they were told to send it out to Jones' wing.He is electric isn't he?

    27 out of 46 in the squad (60%) 21 of 3o starters (70%) Actually the facts now outweigh the perception. Who would have thought 6 Schools would have supplied 70% of the starters in the NSW Squads?

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2013

    My impressions on last nights games were CAS Forwards were much improved.Perhaps injuries last week during the game flattered the CHS pack? I thought the GPS II's halves were significantly better performed than the I's boys. Surprising to see a GPS 1's 9 that is not comfortable passing both...

    2013 IRB Junior World Championship - France

    I don't think it's an issue whether Horwitz was selected or not. He has been in Schoolboy rep teams and ARU squads for a few years, He was on their radar,and would definitely have been considered. It's the fact that nearly all of those considered, required a similiar Schoolboy scrapbook,is why...

    Given that only GPS students have been selected in living memory,I would suggest that loophole does not exist. ...IMO

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2013

    Stokes,I don't think you are taking the opposition into account,when comparing performances. CCC was beaten comprehensively by CHS. It stands to reason that ISA 1's would also have beaten CCC by in excess of 50. So I think you need to temper your enthusiasm for some of the II's players to some...

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2013

    The ISA backs were superb, but your best players were a winger and 2 forwards? Those 2 forwards must have been feeding the winger all day then? I didn't think Walker played league?

    ISA Rugby 2013

    Was it 70? The scrum was dominated quite a few times,and lost their first feed, which is unusual with such a scoreline.

    6 of the elite School will supply 50% of NSW Schoolboys squad this year. maybe the facts support the perception?

    Julia's Reign

    That's a crock of shit. If the backpackers arrived and requested a visa for the time they actually intended to stay, they would be refused entry. It's OK to gain entry by lying,but not OK to risk your life and tell the truth?

    ISA Rugby 2013

    Lough,Walker & Cook are are in the NGS squad so Papa rates them. I think Halaifonua is probably the best forward on form. Cochrane has lost his mojo,I am sure he is disappointed with his form this year.He did not play at the trials and was picked on reputation.As was the other ISA winger Taylor...
