Looks like a good return on investment for Shore in 2024

Ignore if already raised but can’t help feeling GPS selection is being slightly diluted by 4 teams being selected from 6 schools. “Back in the day” there were three teams from 8 schools and that ratio seemed about right. It’s almost more embarrassing now if you’re a 1st XV player and don’t make...

Phoenix Graham would be very unlucky to miss out.

Others would be better placed to answer that. Just know that since Adam was a boy GPS teams, in fact most junior rugby rep sides, are picked on reputation. We live in hope that form is rewarded.

Wouldn’t it be great if the GPS teams this year were picked on form instead of reputation?? You’d have to think with sides and individuals surprising on the up and downside the rep teams should look different to what was expected before a ball was kicked.

Good summary. Still amazed the Joeys player who instinctively coat hangered the View No. 9 in the second half didn’t get a yellow card. Officials also missed a crucial knock on 20m out from Joeys line after View 15 chased his own kick and put a massive shot on Joeys player who caught it. Hard to...

A lot of commentary on here about players, but who is best coach in GPS?? Toby L’Estrange’s ability to squeeze the most out of the View boys over the last few seasons, particularly against much more highly rated opposition, would surely have him up there. Can’t help wondering what has methods...

Is it Scots year this year or next year??

Karma

I’d expect most of the current Super Rugby playmakers would look pretty dynamic against schoolboys

Same name but same family??

what team was Rex Bassingthwaighte in at Shore last year?

yes agree with that and the fact Bollocks has no idea. View didn’t over achieve in 2023, many simply incorrectly underestimated them

Riverview vs Shore results

Consolidated (Yr 7-12) GPS debating table after 3 rounds. Along way to go but an impressive start by the top 3. Can SJC claw their way back??

Great shot. Both boys featured are the epitome of what is good about schoolboy sport. They recognise they are role models for the younger boys and represent their families, team and school with respect to all. It’s never about them and that’s exactly why both will go far on and off the field.

Completely agree with your comment (getting in before Joker complains and it gets removed)

Great highlights - shows how dominant View were against a highly rated Joeys side after a slow start

There was no GPS 4 in 1988

surely you are joking. how many security would you have had to stop that incident??
