CAS Rugby 2023

in fairness, this was when Barker were an average rugby school, before they started importing their 1stXV
They'd just come off winning 3 CAS premierships in the prior 5 years.
A lot of talent finished in 2013/14 and the next round of very good players were about 1-2 years behind.

The depth of players is reducing each year as the demographics of Sydney change. Rugby was compulsory in year 5 and I think year 6 up until about 2015. These days there seems like almost more sport choices than kids at school.

Barker Aloys lower grades:
13s competitive (Aloys best age group performance wise) but both to Barker
14Bs big Barker win, competitive game in the As but W to Barker.
16As massive win to Barker 45-0.
But in the 15s, a battling age group for Aloys, SAC won 46-0, against was said to be Barker Bs (or possible a mixed team, with a few As, lot of Bs and a few Cs). So that match up issue remains tricky.
Aloys 12-0 in the 3rds.
Over to Rod for updates from Willoughby (or Northbridge, if Barker haven't fixed their fixtures sheet).

Strnge circumstance. Barker scores then lineman brings game back up field for a Aloys penalty. Terrible game. HT 24/7

Afternoon skellet, from my perspective it looks like one of the bigger boys I think one of the second rows thought it was a good idea to let out some of his frustration on one of the alos boys. He must have thought it was a good idea considering the main referee wasn’t watching, poor bloke obviously forgot the linesmen was five metres away. Barker looking good but I think it would be better if they started playing with their heads rather than their emotions, as evident from this incident.
