Just read the barker v aloys reports, a good read!. however, i can't see how you wouldn't have the aloys 12 (Lawson) down as one of the best on field, seemed to break the line every time he got possession. Thought the Barker prop Tim Anstey had a strong game, the scrums were fairly even and he...

Snort is on the money here. I think on the whole the selections made are the right ones considering this is the first look we are going to get - best play it safe with proven combinations and if it doesn't work out fix it before the GPS clash. My only quarry is the reluctance to pick on...

A sound analysis but I think you have underplayed the dominance of Knox forwards and oversold the importance of rentons boot. Knox by 10 (would love to be wrong) Aloys vs Waverley should see aloys get up and I agree it will be through exposing waverleys back line defence. the aloysius centres...

Does anyone have the standings for the 2nd XV competition, or know where to find it?

CAS selections this year are shaping up to be more unpredictable then in previous years. The back-row will be a strength, but almost the entirety of the back line is up for grabs, especially with Renton's (C) strong form in the opening rounds challenging Smerdon. The centres are a big question...

Any thoughts on front row selections in particular ? I have seen 4 of the 6 schools play, and I'm yet to identify a stand out ball running threat - although i here satiu is coming back from injury. In fact the only Prop that I've seen making serious metres is the Aloys front rower Booth -...

You could flip a coin between Smerdon and O'donnell, both will do well.

Thought id throw my 2 cents worth in with regard to the CAS selections: CAS 1st XV 1 McLean (T) / Booth (A) 2 Koutsoukis (W) 3 Satiu (T) 4 Williams (A) 5 Heeney (W) 6 Burkett (B) 7 Summerhayes (C) 8 Powter (W) 9 Kirkby (B) 10 O'Donnell (W) 11 Paek (K) 12 Stoltz (B) (c) 13 Goodearl (A) 14...

As good as steak sambo's are, any injury news from around the grounds? I understand Cranbrook have been hit pretty hard already, any word from the Barker Waverley fixture in terms of injury? As much as i hate to say it, the school with the best depth (Barker) will be the hardest to stop... it...

Aloys vs Knox 34-19 Got out to my first game in a long while. The Aloysius home ground (college oval?) was absolutely heaving, couldn't believe the size of the tunnel. At the end of the day Aloys just wanted it more. The forward pack delivered quick ball and the back line delivered...

clark (t) williams (A) mee (c) malaki (t) Davis [2's] Barker theres a heap of them

Ill throw my 2 cents worth in. Vevers played very very well, so well in fact that i think on form alone he deserves a crack at gps 1's. HOWEVER, the team will not be picked on form alone. Were in a situation where jamieson clark, who played CAS 1's in year 10 is being outplayed by a player who...

A few big name 16 reps missing ? Goodearl (A) has been consistent all season, surprised he didn't get a bench spot at least

From what I've seen Davis has a lot to offer, and he's a ball player as well. It would be an exciting prospect to have a back 3 in which all have big passing and kicking games, not saying that it will happen, it probably won't, but many people saw a big contest over clunies-ross and patterson...

T.Davis (B) for one wing spot ? showed a lot of speed and vision in the games i've seen, a back 3 of clunies-ross, davis and patterson would make for some real attacking footy. Just a thought

I'm not sold on either, Wilson (B) and Kitchen(K) are both technically sound, but Morsello (T) and Booth (A) have flair and are a real threat with ball in hand. Will be interesting to see which way the selectors go this year.

Did he play CAS u/16's last year? He's come from nowhere

Kitchen lacked on the weekend, will be lucky to make either CAS squad

hooker seems to be a tight race, does anyone know the name of the aloysius hooker? has impressed me so far, needs a bit of work on the line out throw but his ball running has been second to none. I think the centre pair will be Flaherty (B) and creeley (K) for the 1's, Goodearl (A) and Farley...

thoughts on CAS selection after this round? Main interest is in hooker, open side flanker and 5/8 and the centres?
