NSW AAGPS Rugby 2011

[Spewn]

1st, 2nds, 3rds, 4ths, 9ths, 16As and 15As all moved to Joeys number 1 tomorrow
Robbie Deans was right, barely any water on the pitch
New prediction due to weather View over Scots by 5

There goes my prediction for the freak upset. SGS can only win at home with a gale-force wind behind them in both halves. Maybe that was possible given the current weather but not at Hunters Hill.

I would have loved to have seen the Joeys 12ths game on the No 1 field. Have been called the "hardest working team in show business."

No Sarge (SP). i remember you calling them "the hardest working team in the business"

 

[Nusadan]

Joeys 3rds beat Radley College (UK) and 4ths beat a Welsh team.

What...!!! One would have thought that with the weather and the wet grounds, these visiting teams would have felt at home then...

 

[Joe Mac]

Can anyone confirm Vaux out for View? That would almost give the game to TSC...

Not quite...View leading 24 (four tries) to 13 with few mins to go...14-13 at halftime.

 

[Joe Mac]

great news. Thanks Nusadan!

 

[Nusadan]

Mate had to leave early a bit, score updated to 29 to 21...

 

[random2]

View beat Scots 31 - 21
Joeys beat Grammar 49-19
Joeys best 3, 8, 11, 15 Grammars best 13

 

[Nusadan]

Was there a result in the 2nds game at Scots?

Am sure there was...just don't know the score

 

[Stickybeak]

Joeys won first half 33-0 and lost the second half 19-12. Grammar never gave in and took advantage of a switched off SJC team. Best for Joeys were 12, 13, 3 and 8. Joeys 2nds won in a canter.

Agree with your 3 and 8 but the Joeys half has got a sensational pass. I wouldn't be prepared to give the nod to any of the joeys outside backs because the grammar backline was dreadful defensively. As for the Joeys no. 11: if he stopped playing to the crowd he would be worth a look.

 

[The Blindside]

New beat Shore 19-18 in a really crap game. Shore lead for most of the game and missed a conversion late in the game which would have won them the game. New played like crap but ....... a win is a win.
Scots stuck to their regular script and despite promising so much delivered very little. Their defence around the ruck was very poor and View scored a lot of easy points.
So it looks as though View may be Champions for 2012 ....... unless Joeys can win the battle of the catholics ....... I can't see anyone else beating them.

 

[Kenmare]

Riverview won the seconds 9 - 6

Now I definitely know who you are.....who's your tip for 2011?

Joeys number 1 had 2 teams trained on it all week and games today from 9am and not one spot of mud all day. Spoke to a tour manager who said he was flabbergasted by the condition if the pitch.

They should have played the 14s and 13s there: it would have made no difference
My son wants to know why they don't sow the whole playing field with the same grass

Must be the 'holy water' they had on it all week...

 

[thecow]

I heard there was an all in brawl at the end of the Scots Riverview game. Plus a match report please?

 

[Man on the hill]

I've been told they have inground heating.

 

[Lindommer]

Mate had to leave early a bit...

Had to get home to Glasgow in time for dinner?

 

[Stickybeak]

I've been told they have inground heating.

I can understand how that stops it freezing but unless it boils the water off.......

If you went to High or Grammar you would also understand the elementary physics involved! Please don't worry. If you are wet, you will still dry out without boiling first.
