[Iluvmyfooty]

Auggies and Oakhill are definitely on this saturday at pittwater. game is a double header both ISA and waratah Shield

I think you will find that the Rats colts are at home to the Beasts next Saturday.

St Augustines have entered into a agreement with Pittwater council that gives them use of Rat park over Colts.
not sure where colts will play

NSWRU website says the Rats are playing at home. I for one think it's ridiculous that they dont have priority. I guess this means that they will be pushed to either the front or back oval. Surely St Augustines should either play it as a curtain raiser or after at 5.00pm

Hills are scheduled to play them on this date according to their school newsletter.

They played June 30, I saw the game, Westfields didn't have a great day, however Hills played quite well

Lily, you have forgotten the golden rule......he who has the gold makes the rules.
The School is obviously paying good coin for the right to play/train there.
They have clashed before with grade & 1st grade played after the School 1's.
So i would be guessing the lights will be on for the Colts 1's this week.

How stupid of me to forget the Golden rule. Oakhill will be very hard to beat but Papa is grabbing all possible resources for this game such as Vescio and young Hoppa. Will be close but ST Augustines for mine in a hard fought game. Also I have been led to believe that Newington are using mostly 3rd 15 standard players in this competition. If so then NBSC will probably beat them.

On Saturday at Rat park 1.45 Sydney 1st Grade colts game - Warringah v Easts; 3.15 ISA/ waratah Shield St Augustines v Oakhill. These games are on the main field

Prairiewood vs Endeavour Sports this weekend according to the Fairfield Advance. Winner into the Quarters.

Augustines prevailed in a quality contest although 2 late tries blew the score out to 36-15. With 10 mins to go Oakhill missed a penalty to stay at 17-15 and Augustines with a glut of possesion finished off the stronger. Congratulations to Augies and good luck in the shield. Looking forward to next years game already.

Looking at the program either Vescio or Hopoate played.

Maybe Manly stepped in. On Wednesday they were playing if the game was close.

Hopoate didn't play due to the number of school suspensions he has received this year and will not be playing again for the rest of the year. Vescio was at the game but at no time did he strip down for teh game and remained in full school uniform all day. Due to his league committments with the Oz Schools team he has chosen to not play Firsty XV again this year

 

[Iluvmyfooty]

Other QF's are St Augustines v Endeavour Sport High; Newington V NBCS; Knox v Mudgee High.

All games have top be played by 5 August

 

[MrBump]

Endeavour v Augustines August 10th @ Endeavour.

Kick Off 1.30

 

[Lee Grant]

Bradley and MrBump

Thanks for providing exact details of where and when the games are.

 

[bushpig]

Knox beat Mudgee High at Mudgee High yesterday. My sources say the score was about 35-14.

 

[Bradley]

Hills Sports have smashed Kings this afternoon by around 7 trys to 3. I was not there so I am relying on my source.

 

[Iluvmyfooty]

This would mean Knox will play Hills in one semi-final

 

[Iluvmyfooty]

Given that we are close to the semi's in this competition I have noticed that there may be a problem for some of the schools left.

The Semi's are to be played on 17 August (at Camden I believe). On 23 August Australia Schools "A" plays England and on 28 August Australian Schools plays England. The problem I see is that some of the schools that will be playing in the semi's may not have all their team available as they have players involved in both games.

Newington would appear to be the one affected most with Ala'alatoa (AUS), Baldwin(AUS), Roods(AUS) and Roye (AUS "A") involved. Knox have Lawley (AUS) and Scarano(AUS"A"), Endeavour have Wessels(AUS) and Caterson (AUS"A") and Auggies has Dombkins(AUS). Hills do not have any players involved in Australian Schoolboys this year.

In the past Aus Schools players were not released to play in these type of games. i wonder if this is the same this year.
