Yeah saw the High head coach looked to have a NSW Rugby jacket on - wonder if NSWRU were involved.

Predictions for Newington vs Cranbrook?
I have to back Newington, their team is looking quite strong this year

Going off the scores from v View I think Newington should handle business fairly comfortably. Doesn't seem Cranbrook have the depth bring guys up from 2nds either. No points scored in 1sts or 2nds...

Never thought I'd say this again, but Glazer's here
Well, well, well, we are back and are in full throttle. Great games from View, Joeys, Newington, and Knox to see a thrilling day of rugby for the schoolboys. There were a few hiccups on the Joeys number one in the morning due to poor discipline, as well as at Knox, but that is to be expected at the beginning of a fierce season. Nevertheless, the sheer passion on every number one field was outstanding. Got around to the View and Joey's games, and wow were they great. The wonderkid Finn Leary does it again, with Xavier Ryan complimenting his ball-running ability. The effort I saw from both WC and J was outstanding; great to see as an old boy. 6, 7, 9, 15 caught my eye on the weekend as they put in the extras.
Caught the view game, and oh my word. They kept the Cranbrook boys to nil. It was a cracking attack with the key players from last years first team stepping up to dominate the Cranbrook side. Expectations this week are for Newington to win with Cranbrook coming off a tough loss. I'm going to catch the Joeys Knox game this week and the Shore game the following week, but I will make it to Scots and Riverview before the season ends.
Must say game of the day was the Joeys 2nd and 3rd XV (couldn't decide) with Patrick Thompson leading it out for Trinity with Brock Prideoux, and Aston Lebler (c) with Finn Hannon leading out the 2nd XV, it was a tight game. As well as Julian Ryan and Harry Beckett leading the 3rd XV out to have a big win against WC, well played boys.
Gotta love the footy these boys bring to the table,
Until next week, Glazer out.

Mr. K,
Key Takeaways from the Kings vs Newington Game (K38–N33)

Key Takeaways from the Kings vs Newington Game (K38–N33)
Kings:
- Risati (#12) – A standout in the Kings' backline, delivering moments of brilliance that shifted the game's momentum. He looks very comfortable in the #12 jersey and will be exciting to watch this season.
- The team’s overall endurance was a major highlight and contributed significantly to their win. While Kings appear to be lacking in size, the return of key players Founa and Smith should help relieve some pressure on the forward pack.
Newington:
- Already acknowledged, but worth repeating: Heamasi (#11) needs to be utilised more. In the few opportunities he had with the ball, he consistently gained metres or scored tries. He might be more effectively used in the centres or in crash ball plays.
- #14 showed great speed and agility, looking dangerous every time he touched the ball. It’s been said he won the GPS 100m – can someone please confirm this?
