Also concerning are the results not only for the 1st XV but the 2nd XV, 16A, 15A, 14A and 13A’s.

Hopefully the boys from Stanmore can turn things around this weekend against the boys from HH.
Beating Joeys at home? Yes I was wondering about the As, the 14s and 15s were both very strong last year

There was the home trial that View won in a close contest. It was the abandoned Covid season and View like to think of themselves as premiers for that year.
One year late, 2020 was a closed trial ( at View, finished 12-7 Joeys scoring a miraculous end to end try in the last play of the game (in classic Riverview Joeys fashion). 2021 had an open to spectators Riverview Home trial, where View went up 31-0 in the first 25 minutes, Henry O’Donnell, the 12 and Views best player (previously mentioned in Junior Wallabies) went off with an injury. To which Joeys replied with there 31 points to make it 31-31. Only for Riverview to score on the bell (and a made conversion) to make the final score 31-38 View. Making it Riverview’s first win against Joeys since the pitch invasion debacle of 2016, after years of heartbreak, agony, choking and not able to capitalise on leads.

This was a week before the school went on break and COVID reformed during the holidays.

And yes, in my heart Riverview were champions that year, defeating all GPS schools in trials except Newington (who they didn’t play).
 
I think these young lads are the quintessential schoolboy year 12 team- absolute limited talent, threatened with expulsion from the year of rugby for bringing back the biff (none of them can actually throw a punch mind you) but going out and having a great team. Well done serpents and all the other social rugby teams just playing for fun!
Can’t help but agree with almost everything you’ve said except two things.

Firstly, talent wise, one look at their Instagram or Youtube will show you that they aren’t playing around, like mentioned earlier, some of their players have a great kick on them, nice passes and great all round rugby skill, they aren’t just here for fun, they are running through every team in the GPS and CAS.

Secondly, they have not only successfully brought back the biff, they know how to throw them aswell, rumour has it there’s a few up and coming MMA fighters in the side, not only helping them in the biff, but ultimately boosting their grappling skills.

Very entertaining footy regardless, sometimes better than the questionable games we see from higher grades. I’m on the bandwagon, Up The Serps!!!

The 15’s weren’t very strong last year, Joeys put about 40 points on them. Might be different this week though with the Joeys 16’s down at least 9 of the players that ran on last year.

What about that 9 from Kings, Jacob Camilleri, great game IQ and links up great with Marcus Molnar at 10... They would tear up teams such as View and Scots, who really come up short in the middle third.

Also Joker,
My Tips for this round:
Joeys by 7
Kings by 42
Scots by 3

Cheers.

I said GPS game. Trials don't have the same atmosphere.

But yes, that year is a premiership in almost all View supporters' eyes and rightfully so I believe.
