QLD AIC 2024

[Max Renault]

I really miss AIC Vs GPS Vs CSS end of season clashes. I really feel this year AIC would’ve had a great team. Imagine this running out for us:

1. Luka Smith (SLC)
2. Manaaki Bateman (SPC)
3. Hopo Leota (Iona)
4. Will Ross (Padua)
5. Tom Nadenic (SLC)
6. Jack Corby (Padua)
7. Adam Kelly (Iona)
8. Jasper Barry (Marist)
9. Lachlan McCall (Marist)
10. Finn McKay (SLC)
11. Matt Condon (SPC)
12.
13. Tom Howard (Marist)
14. Joel Drew (Marist)
15. Wallace Charlie (SPLC)
RESERVES
16. Huw Griffiths (SLC)
17. Callum Rooney (Padua)
18.
19. Ethan Ramsay (SPLC)
20. Ben Davis (SLC)
21. Ben Lawrence (Villanova)
22. Damon Humphrys (Padua)
23. Levi Hawea (Iona)
24. Xavier Santos (SLC)
25. Ned Dore (Iona)

I Believe that Ethan Ramsay from SPLC achieved a Scholarship to Toowoomba Grammar

A team like this is lethal but who would you put in the 12 and 18 role. I was at the Ashgrove vs Villanova game and I believe the Ashgrove 12 was quite good and the front row for Villanova was dominating scrums all day. Just to make things hard to make a decision

No Padua players in the starting 15 is strange considering their big win, winger scored an excellent try. Also, a few more SLC players could have made it too.

I agree the Front Row for St Laurence's College held their own against the like of Lehopo Leota. An Australian representative
