It's great to be back for another GPS rugby season and I look forward to more exciting commentary on Green & Gold. I will continue to report on the 3rd XV competition in 2024 as I have done in recent years. Its the same format for 2024 with the three 1st XV teams from Grammar, High and TAS...

At Joeys, I often sit at the Southern (non scoreboard end) of the grandstand on the 22 line. That stand is normally full of visiting parents and visiting supporters (as it should be). They have a good view close to the canteen and only a downside if it rains. It's only the visiting boys and...
