Another penalty another line out another Pius try in the corner. 22-5

17-5 at half time. I need to leave before the end of this but I can’t see Trinity getting out of it. The error rate is gruesome.

Trinity again takes a scrum from a penalty. Winger Prideaux knocks on trying to ground the ball.

Trinity gets a penalty and opts for a scrum. Can the backs hold the ball? They don’t get the chance - Trinity keep it in tight and it’s a prop who knocks on

Trinity gives away another penalty because of course they do, and it’s 17-5

The Pius hooker kicks goals from the sideline. 14-5 and Trinity cough up the ball again.

Another Prius attacking line out and the winger’s in for 12-5

Lots of breakdown penalties here

I know it’s wet, but Trinity’s backs are spilling a lot of ball under no particular pressure

Soatini, No8 running out wide, hits back for Trinity. 7-5 to Pius.

I’m at the Summer Hill swamp. The cricket pitch is a bog. Plus 34 Trinity 12 in seconds. Pius has the first attacking line ou and rumbles over. 5-0

29-24 to Cranbrook over St Pats in Friday Night Lights. St Pats scored inside the first two minutes, after which the teams traded tries and it was 19-17 to St Pats at half time. St Pats scored first in the second half to lead 24-17 but Cranbrook stormed home with two tries in quick succession...

Any team news? I mean, Knox 16s is interesting and all, but any 1st XVs?

It's a safety issue, made necessary by the kind of mismatch you'll see when Barker next plays St Aloysius.

Thoughts on that Trinity side (I don't know them all). Great front row. Having Meagher back is a huge plus, and Mastro was really strong last year. Soatini can be a handful, too. There's a bit of experience in the backs: Fraser impressed last year, when he played centre, and Edmed and Nasr...

with apologies for providing information instead of abject drivel, I gather that this was the Trinity starting XV against St Patrick's: 1 Marcus Mastro 2 Max Meagher (c) 3 Cameron Van der Goot 4 Sione Lua 5 Noah Herden 6 Hugo Van Hal 7 Ben Keogh 8 Amosia Soatini 9 William Trostel 10...

This is always a slightly odd time of year - you get a week or two before the holidays, and no one ever quite knows how to make best use of that time.

According to Trinity's website, Trinity beat St Pats 29-5, with tries from Marcus Mastro, Amosia Soatini, Sione Lua, Brock Prideaux, and Max Meagher. The big news there isn't just the margin (Trinity had a loss and a draw to St Pats last year), but the return of Meagher. He missed almost all...

No reports? According to the ISA thread, Oakhill beat Barker 42-41. Which suggests the players thought it was still basketball season. Apparently, Trinity beat St Patrick's in the 1sts and 2nds. Which doesn't mean much, except this - Trinity's seconds never win. It's kind of a tradition...

That's good for Barker. Beating Joeys is never bad. But bear in mind that Joeys treat trials as trials - they experiment a lot to sift through all their players. So the Joeys you beat in a trial in March may be nothing like the Joeys team that takes the field at crunch time in May.
