Just received this picture taken by a year 10 scots boy with his drone. If you look closely you can see the poor groundskeepers struggling to keep their equipment afloat. Sporting activities this morning had to be cancelled after students were swept into the harbour. I don't know much but I do know this: naval tactics will be required to succeed tomorrow.

This is one of the leaked maneuvers I received from a SHORE boy this week. As you can see their battle strategy relies on a stagnant Scots forward pack, who I am told are yet to invest in floaties for their props. Through careful rigging of their jerseys, Shore believes they can achieve greater maneuverability throughout the battlefield akin to captain cook by erecting sails, using the lightweight nature of their backs as cannonballs.

Shore's bouyant lineout will definitely benefit from the surface area of Galligan when maneuvering amongst the rest of their fleet, and it will be crucial for them to stay vigilant about the wind behaviour across the course.

Gentlemen, expect to see your preconcievals of GPS footy challenged significantly this Saturday. You will be bewildered. You will be shocked. And most of all, your hearts will become aflutter as once more schoolboy rugby breaks new grounds, persevering through un

The close game in and around the ruck will be the decisive factor for the first edition at the Death Star this season. Stock, Clout, Frape and Galligan (E) will all look to be destructive around that area. The decision to move Lemoto (S) to the centres and thus further away from the ruck is a strange decision for me. You would imagine that TSC would want him as close to the ruck as possible as there most likely won't be much ball movement on Saturday. I'm predicting Shore's forwards to have a field day in the muddy pigsty at the Death Star.

 

[The President]

Most games at Kings officially cancelled. All on main oval still on. A’s for each age group and 4ths up in Opens.

I can imagine the Doyle Fields are looking very brown...

He certainly has his work cut out for him if he wants to realise those dreams. Sheridan and Cowdery are some absolute titans to overcome but where theres a will there is certainly a way.

Galligan and Frapes rowing skill may come in handy and give an edge over the competition at Scots if this rain continues.

Is kings the only school, which has cancelled games already

 

[dorrigoranger]

rumour in: 2 XV fowardman Latham will potentially get a Run for New 1st XV as Villamu and Shieck expected to continue to be out. Heard this boys had some deadly intercepts for a foward. Any thoughts?

Regards Scrummie

absolutely not Latham is undersized and unconditioned lathams chances at firsts selection are lower then his chances of getting below 50% body fat

Centennial will probably close, ruling out most Shore vs TSC games...

Edit: Can't see any games happening on any of these fields, council has it on lockdown...

Best of luck lads. Unlucky against the Joeboys last week who were a genuinely phenomenal team. Bring a bit of mongrel this week!

Any opinions of 3rd XV 2ndRower, J.A. Duddy? Reports say he's next up if the injury-stricken Newington College 2nd XV face anymore injuries

--> this report comes live from the hallowed Johnson as the probability of L. Richmond (N) into the 2's grows to 75%. Watch this space at 2:30pm AEST for K. Carter injury report.

Get back to school, this chat is serious, stop spreading this garbage

Can I congratulate a Shore Year 12 student by the name of Jack Riding on a phenomenal video that I was shown yesterday on the First XV.

The music, shot selection and overall atmosphere was incredible, and I felt it really summed up the nature of the team. If someone could post it here that would be phenomenal thanks.

Well done Jack, and a shoutout to the various schoolboy medias going around right now.

Chairman,
I have had the privelige of meeting Ethan Wu, the editor and director of the video. He told me last monday that that video can be considered a "teaser video for the teaser video". Big things are certainly coming. Shore will not only dominate on the pitch, but also in the media department. For anybody interested in viewing this spectacular video, it can be found on instagram. Fantastic work to Ethan for his editing and Jack for the beautiful imagery on a spectacular video, looking forward to what else these boys can pump out.

Definetly not! Latham is an absolute work horse. Puts his body on the line every week and captained the seconds forwards this week. Please refrain from making inappropriate comments about 17 year old boys!

Whole heartedly agreed! Latham has been at the pitfalls of robberys this year, quite unfortunate for the gentleman. First robbed of a spot in the 1st XV and then ransacked of his white blazer earlier in the year.

Hoping to see him out there working in the white jersey sometime this year.

Faithfully,
Phillip R. LeCouter - 10th Headmaster of Newington College

 

[Scrums'N'Bars]

Looks like Newington 1st XV will remain unchanged after a win against View. Asides from the exceptions of Heamasi Makasini IN for Kden Carter.

1. Viliami A
2. Annikian Richardson
3. Harry Davies
4. Dan Muir
5. Kupu M
6. Nathan Perkins
7. Ashton Thomas
8. Dylan Simmons
9. Harry Whitaker
10. Jarryd King
11. Heamasi Makasini
12. Keone A-T
13. Braith Sloane
14. Bailey R-L
15. Callum Grantham

Should be a good test against Joeys and will really determine who the powerhouses this season will be.

Isn't Kupu M suspended for the punch last week on Ashton Thomas and Henry Dempsy?

Yep I heard this was true as well, will be interesting to see if he plays.

Scrummy,

Can confirm reports of H.J. Lapham moving up into the 2nd XV after injuries to back rower M. Collins during St Ignatius, Riverview game. Unsure where he will slot into in the forward pack but never the less, a handy replacement as he played in the firsts trial match against Kings.

IN's and OUT's Table

Team	Player In	Player Out	Probability
2nd XV	H. Makasini	H. Keeping	Confirmed
2nd XV	Richmond	K. Carter	50/50
2nd XV	H.J. Lapham	M. Collins	Confirmed

Faithyfully,
Phillip R. LeCouter - 10th Headmaster of Newington College

Mr LeCouter,

Just a quick one.

From my understanding H. Keeping plays hooker for the New 2nd 15. If I am interpreting you're very helpful table correctly. You are suggesting Makasini will be playing hooker tomorrow in a straight swap for 'hot head' Keeping?

Whilst I understand new director of Rugby Mr Herring is passionate about maintaining a team first mentality and accountability amongst the players surely forcing Heamasi to play hooker is unjustified?

Cheers.
