Joe Walsh is in the Gen Blue 1sts team. That’s why he wasn’t selected

Except Turinui has played 6 of Waverley’s 8 games at 5/8. And they have won the last 5.
And the only reason he was at fullback was because of the huge injury list, an injury list the selectors were aware of.
And once Waverley were back to full strength they beat Augustines by a higher margin than Knox.
The selectors saw Waverley’s first two games when they were missing 9 or 10 genuine firsts starters and decided they weren’t going to pick them.

Big congrats to Old Cranbrookian Josh Kemeny who will be making his debut for the wallabies over the weekend off the bench.

In other news, Cranbrook play Oakhill tommorow should be a tough hit out against a very strong Oakhill side and a good test before facing the likes of Barker and Knox.
Is anyone aware of other trial games being played or been played in the holidays?

Great win for Cranbrook today, dominated the first half ending 25 -7 but a strong comeback in the second half saw Oakhill take the lead at 25-28 however Cranbrook decided to switch on ending the fixture 37 - 28 to Cranbrook.

The comp could still have a 3 or 4 way win. If Waves don’t knock over Knox, I really think barker could topple Knox.

Will be interesting to see how things pan out over the next 3 rounds, although Knox are clearly looking the strongest.

Wouldn't say clearly
Knox are stronger in some areas and Waverley in others
Hard to say who tips the scales
Looking forward to next Saturday and the build up

Knox better across the park by far. Hence more selections in rep teams.
Expecting a massive Knox scrum to take out the Waverley pack led by two of the best props in Australia. Followed by the wingers scoring at ease with their pace down the edges.
Knox to win by 20+

I reckon Cranbrook will beat this team by 10-15 points. A particularly weak Barker team going up against a Cranbrook team with nothing to lose.

i Think Knox by a Gallup. Cranbrook will be close, but I don’t think Barker are anywhere near good enough this year.

My tips.
Waverly by 6
Trinity by 18
Cranbrook by 2.
Hopefully my tips put the mocka on Brook. Barker is a young side. Brook only lost by 2 points to Waverly . Brook should be favourites for this game given Waverly beat Barker by 12.

Cranbrook also lost to Trinity though... it seems as though the hype was not lived up to as people on this forum believed they would win CAS, they have a few promising players but they just couldn't gel together to get past Waverley and Trinity. Disappointing.
Knox by 7
Trinity by 10

Agreed.
Those prolific Cranbrook posters have died away after two big losses. I still feel they are in with a good chance against an under strength Barker.
