JM4+ of new, shore and kings had a bad row, unfortunately not making it through. Hopefully these men can do great things with their new club in the coming season.

Is anyone here watching the Kings/Newington Downer cup race?

Shore Fours, whole Newington shed, SBHS, maybe Joeys fours

Newington 1st VIII pulled a 6:20 today For reference, the SRC VIII with two Rio olympians and two world uni games medalists on board went 6:09 5 minutes later - So I'm assuming a bit of a headwind. Anyone out there want to say what it was like?

Camps starting soon?

Former Augustines rower Sean Murphy and former Joeys rower Matt Curtin paired up well today in the Trans-Tasman

I thought it was for everywhere. I would have assumed Iggies would due to their large numbers across their Rugby program. A quick google found it to be compulsory at Newington and King's (and I think scots?), whilst Sydney Grammar boys can leave sport after their term 1 commitments in year 11...

Are you referring to Shore in particular? or the GPS as whole?

I've heard similar tales, with a first and second eight rower leaving...

Ah well, so good to get eight GPS rowers on display at the Juniors, and another three in the U23 team. Now back to the GPS, how are all the schools going at the start of their testing/training?

GOLD for GPS Old Boy Rob Black in the bow seat of the BM4X

JM4+ through to A-Final with what sounds like a pretty relaxed effort, cruising through to 2nd in the repecharge.

The heavy eight is the only coxed boat class at the senior level. As for women, there is no coxed four or pair. Hence, why she took up para rowing, where there is the LTAMix4+ (a class which Australia has a real opportunity at winning at the upcoming paralympics)

Shore erg testing today. 2km @26.

30? I think this rounds it out to a nice 70 haha It is disappointing, on top of this Jürgen Grobler was also a successful coach in Australia in the 90's and is not the head of GB Rowing

They're old too, I think theres a lot of talk of them disbanding after Rio, although nothing out of the Kiwi camp. However, if they kept going untill Tokyo, I don't think they'll be beaten.

disappointing result for the M4x last night (Cam Girdlestone King's 06), silver after winning all season. As well for the SRC combo of Turrin/Lloyd (Joeys/Shore), finishing 6th in the A final. However valiantly rowed by both crews, proud to be an Aussie today with the way they handled themselves.

I think when we have one of the strongest rowing competitions around, bagging out all the schools (which post fairly fast times in the grand scheme of things) because Shore are good, is extremely misguided, and pretty harsh on the guys who worked pretty hard

Getting burned week in week out is not something Kings did, achieving a consistent 3rd place apart from 2-3 races. I believe it's something scots did actually. When they raced.

I think this year might be a year for some new fours, Joeys and Shore have both had their Kirs for a while (except Shore's first four, wintech for 3 years?) King's had a new four last year, christening it at SIRC at their regatta in February. Scots also had a Fillipi four, a big expense for a...
