Nudgee 10 can play, he played a few games last year whilst Nudgee's 10 was recovering from an injury at the beginning of the year. Has all the technique in defence, great kicking game, kid has it all. Wouldn't rule him out of a GPS 2 or 3 spot.

Gtjack they're actually a bit closer to home for you.
All scheduled for Tennyson.
3 games kicking off at 10.00.
But hard for selectors to discern form from one outing. As recently passed former Wallaby Keith Cross once advised for such occasions "Wear a big white headband".
Without any lead up form one would suspect that reputation will carry you a long way .......

Have to agree with that, he was outstanding all over

He is naturally a 15, mate. I've always argued that he will be the QLD I 15 as he doesn't quite have the size for fly-half. He will face stiff competition from Placid though.
Sabanator, can you give us a report from your perspective? Would be interested to see who performed as I was unable to make it.

light, a few players impressed me yesterday.
Dalgleish, as previously mentioned, was probably the best player of the day, and far and away the best of the 10's. Lochey Oppenheimer (ACGS) impressed me as usual, but the next best of the 8's, for me, was the year 10 boy Daniel Sitanilei from Terrace. Dylan Sikimeti (NC) had some excellent runs and he was the pick of the front rows, and I'd put Cody Blackhurst (BGS) on the other side of the scrum. None of the hooker's really stood out, but Dimitri Loukaras (BSHS) and Tom Mellor (GT) were probably least impressive. Jack Tuttle (NC) played well and will easily end up with the GPS 1 jumper. The wings for me would be Monty Ioane (ACGS) and a BBC winger that I haven't seen before, but he was quick. Dan Preen (IGS) was the pick of the second rows, and I'd consider lining Isaac French (GT) up next to him just for a nice even scrum, but Adam Korczyk (BSHS) performed slightly better on the day. Jack Heenan (GT) might have played himself into one of the lower team's jerseys with a long distance try, but I can't see him going too highly. A relatively weak showing by Tom Given might cost him a spot, didn't really live up to his full potential but I still thought he was one of the best 2 fullbacks on the day.
GPS 1 / GPS 2
1. Sikimeti / Pleash
2. Postale
3. Blackhurst / Sala (only because I think coaches will give him a favourable treatment)
4. Preen
5. Korcyzk
6. Gunn
7. Mulheron
8. Oppenheimer
9. James Tuttle
10. Dalgleish
11. Ioane
12. Jack Tuttle
13. Schafer
14. Unknown BBC winger
15. Banks / Given

I think that BBC winger may be Gareth Kallel, played GPS reps last year and BBC 1st XV for the last 2 years from memory. Do you know if any TGS boys made the trip down the range? Placid, Ivy, Bougoure in particular would be heavy favourites. I can also understand why they wouldn't, probably already made it through the club rep system.

There were a few from TGS, and their halfback would definitely make GPS 2, and I'd consider their lock a possibility for GPS 2 as well.

Cannot see how the gps team can be picked when selectors have only seen one game out of the players. As said by many reputation does count. The move by the bosses in the top to move rugby to term three to cater for afl which has had no support by players was simply stupid. Most schools will now have the burden of not having supplementary games with AIC schools cause their season would be over. The list predicted is the same as predicted before. Cannot wait till they verse AIC.
