Does anyone know what happened to the newington ball boy for the 2ndXV. He got taken out from a sliding joeys player and was stretchered off after at least a 10 minute break. Hope hes ok

Anyone know what High have numbers wise in the lower age groups?
Probably unpopular but there is a point where it’s untenable and Newington offer a better option for all.
Unless there is a complete policy change within NSW Education (which there won’t) they will never be competitive in Rugby. I feel bad saying this because the boys playing don’t deserve it but the system they are administered by has done this to them.

Yeah it is sad and unfair to watch highs 1s get beat 60~0 to an average 3s team, I believe their opens program goes to the 3rds.

Looked like a leg injury but I'm hearing it was a broken arm/wrist. Not entirely sure though looked pretty bad. Fingers crossed the young lad is alright.

comment will be lucky to last 5 minutes
so just Because a boy isn’t white means they are imports ? Love the casual racism.

Yeah, what a stupid thing to say.
Not going to win every rugby match which will show when the results get published for all of Saturdays fixtures between the schools. Was hearing quite a few 50+ wins from parents.

Shore are too dependent on certain players too, I think New start as 15+ pt favourites still
High beat the Newington 3rd XV this year.

Fair point. Didn’t know that.
They look a better side than last year but I still think it’s a wasted exercise at this point.

MONDAY TIPPING
Why not get in early and make your bold predictions. This weekend will see three evenly matched teams.
Shore at Stirling bridge fell in final moments last week to the storm troopers. They will want to make amends to thier passionate supporters against a Newington team that sputtered against the relentless cattle dog attack. Scots may have found a way to win ugly and at the Death Star they may have an edge. The Cows from Parramatta will be indeed the favourites but Scots is coached by a bloke who has an excellent record against them and way well reach into the old cerise and blue bag for a trick or three.
Finally the battle of Catholics. I will be once again shrugging some of the old writers rust and making my preview this Friday. If you are easily triggered by banter and humour then please, eat a cement pill and harden up. My previews are designed to promote the giggles and not the niggles. I am expecting an avalanche of commentary this week coming from the swamp. You may have the numbers but I have a cyclopath!

Hey Joker, here's an interesting question. Who is the oldest living GPS 1st XV Rugby Player at Joeys?

Damn good question. This will take a serious deep dive. Leave this with me and I shall put the Joeys archives crew on it.
Huge day out at View on Saturday. Firstly the best team on the day unfortunately won the second half and Kings have taken home the trophy.
The first half clearly dominated by View and think they were unfortunate not to capitalise with most of the first half camped on the Kings try line. Great defense by the Kings boys but was surprised that the yellow card didn't come out earlier. View 10 was brilliant as he has been all year as were the other backs. View forward pack also dominated the first half and kept Kings to a first half deficit at half time.
Again I stand by my comments though that the Kings team still heavily relies on a number of key players. Number 7 (who from what I was told was nursing a bad ankle) dominated in defense and at the breakdown. Was also very impressed with Kings 2, 4 and 8 who were work horses although the large Kings 1 and 3 didnt seem to dominate as they have in the past.
Would be very interested to see a game between the Kings 1 and 2 team as their seconds seem very impressive as well and think there are def two or three players could easily be in the 1 team. Think the Joeys/Kings game to end the season will be a great contest
View, heads high boys. Thought you were going to get there but unfortunately they were just too good
