You are being tiresome, anytime a boy's name is mentioned you claim they are full fee paying. Then you say they are on academic scholarships, then you accuse the poster of racism.
You obviously go to the School, go and ask ANY of the new recruits to the 15A's last year how they got there.
I know the School is actively asking people to nominate talented Rugby kids for next year, seems like some of last years recruits have proven to be disappointments.

At least I don't post rumour and innuendo. I post the FACTS which probably doesn't suit guys like you.

I hear that Newington have recruited from the NSW u16s with coincidental scholarships starting immediately.

It would be unfair to the child to name him. Its informed by the child's mother: she'd know wouldn't she? Let's see if this kid doesn't pop up in 4th term.......More to the point the arms race is making the competition more and more irrelevant - who cares if X school won the comp when there are only 3 other teams bolstering their ranks in the off season so as to be able to make a game of it in the next?

Not just one as I hear it. NSW schools had 5 CHS now it has just 3 as 2 are now GPS.

he was one of the CHS....obsessed as I am with the game they play in heaven I cannot see why this is the holy grail for the schools involved. In the USA there is TV coverage so presumably there is money paid to the schools (as there is in NCAA) which justifies the school's investment in the football program: the money is used for other sports. This is why the US colleges have such fantastic non-football facilities (as well as fantastic football facilities). I think they also have a rule that if you transfer schools (even from one side of the country to the other) you have to sit out a year.......food for thought

Ok....good luck to him. Must say a little suprised as Schools coach (also New coach ) "hooked" him after very noticeable attacking and defensive errors against SJ's a couple of weeks ago.

This would be the same 16As who as the 15s, 14s and 13s did nothing? Low and behold 4 boys turned up this year, entirely coincidentally, and the team was undefeated....remarkable.

Milne and Tepai Morea will make a more than useful centres combination.

That's what all the schools do - believe it or not, even the Newington 1stXV has a core of players who've come right through from their Year 7 or 8 teams.
... and can someone explain how Riverview manage to always come out looking so angellic in these recruitment discussions. Surely the Riverina kid who came to the Sharks at the beginning of the year and also lobs at Riverview (for 3 seasons in their Ones) is in the same catagory as a Tepai or Taane Milne at New' ????

So now it's the "core"of the team?
What is the definition of core?
Given that they are still recruiting for 2013, core could end up meaning the ballboy joined in year 7!
one kid lobbing at View does not come close to the cynical attitude of recruiting over 1/2 a team in years 9 & 10 for 2013.

Half a team in year 9. A whole team in Year 7 - six of one, half a dozen of the uvver ...
My only point with the Riverview fella is there's precious little scrutiny sent Lane Cove way.
So if you recruit two or three it seems to be ok, but double it and yer silvertailing the comp ???? Is that the gist of the bellyache ?
