Good luck Aussie schoolboys and welcome Tongan Thor
Lol at your awards .
U13 correct
U14 tau tau NO . Xavier soli and tom ford, Joe small are the best players
U15 did Bshs win this comp their forwards dominated and. 12 was outstanding at times GT LUCAS yes . Best player is TGS 13 in the comp
Rest of your choices are fair, we all have opinions. . Lol
Third, I hear Harley Fox has been named as Australian Schoolboys Captain for this year. An interesting choice, because lots had assumed Angus Crichton would be the starting number 8. Congratulations to him!
[/quote]Reece Hewat called up Sunday night, flew out yesterday - maybe taking Angus' position leaving Fox as the next in line for Captain?
Thought he was already signed with the Storm when he was at BBC.For those of you who know of Tiaan Wilkins from BBC last year he has just signed with the Warriors
Thought he was already signed with the Storm when he was at BBC.
What happened with that?
Good luck to him a very talented player pity he couldn't settle in oz away from his girlfriend for 2 years.
But young men and their girlfriends can be a help or not.
Plus I believe he missed his mum even after his dad had moved to Brisbane to give him support.
He will do well in the NRL in NZ.
Just weighing in on the age debate.
Reece Hewat, who is entering in to yr12 next year turning 17 years old and is completing a 3 year senior. This means that in his final year he will be turning 19 in what could be his 3rd year as captain.
Is the rule that you must not be 19 to play opens rugby?
I suppose it depends on his birthday

Don't forget Curtis Browning made the BSHS First XV at age 15.
and was in the Australian schoolboys team for three years (2009 - 2011).
No one questioned his eligibility. 4 years in Firsts (2008 - 2011)
Awesome rugby player and school captain.
Reece Hewat will be completing a two year senior; just like Alex Mafi did this year(2014).
Hewat will be 18 (U/19) when he finishes year 12 (2016).
4 years in the First XV (2013 - 2016)
I remember a few years ago, a certain Papuan New Guinean lad who had already turned 19 in his final year at Nudgee and therefore not eligible for First XV.
He ended up playing Second XV.
No rules were broken.
I hope.Reece finishes in 2015 as he was in the NSW U15 team in 2012 which would make him U19 in 2016And that is why NC and TSS will always be at the top . They will always have more 18 years because so many more boys at those schools do senior over 2 years -.its not unusual at those schools - many boys at those schools see rugby as a future profession.
It is unusual at the other GPS schools for this to happen.
Good luck to them . I don't want to weigh into the balance between sport and OP scores ;but there is a direct correlation.
Each school must find there own balance- and there is no point criticising what that balance is.
And that is why NC and TSS will always be at the top . They will always have more 18 years .
