APS/AGS Football 2024

[SMP]

His son plays for Caulfield.

Another poached player, junior Yze was @ De La Salle, then hey presto ‘appears’ at CGS in year 10…

 

[Tivva29]

Which boys do you see as their potential draft picks this season?

Levi Ashcroft and Luke Trainor are certainties.

The other boys - Harrison Oliver, Charlie Richardson, Bailey McKenzie, Josh Dolan, Lenny Hoffman are all fairly strong prospects and are all playing consistent good footy.

I think they’re all chances. Bound to have interest.

Anyone got any info on how Carey grammar are going? More specifically Boston Everett?
I can’t find any info but that probably mean he isn’t setting the world on fire

Yet to register a win, while they’ve been “lucky” enough to cop both Caulfield & Haileybury to date.
Check out the APS Sport website for results.
Everett Junior has been playing am told, year 11, not featured in depatches. Which usually tells the story….

Watched Brighton v Geelong College. Many were expecting a good contest as GC had been quite good so far this season. But it was a total demolition by Brighton even without Levi and their main ruckman.
Caulfield v Brighton should be a ripper next Saturday

Brighton will win. They’re en route to a premiership.

Have to get past Caulfield and Hailebury first. Bit still to go.

How many PSA schools do have in Victoria? We have 7 in WA, 3 of which are in the Claremont zone and one 2km away. Is it similar in Vic? I noticed two schools in Geelong....that's odd.

 

[year of the cat]

Apparently Datoli had 4 goals to half time for Carey. His draft stocks are only going up.

Fair amount

Brighton Grammar
Carey Gammar
Caulfield Grammar
Haileybury
Melbourne Grammar
St Kevins
Scotch college
Wesley
Xavier.


Then you have in the AGS comp

Assumption
Ivanhoe grammar
Mentone Grammar
Penleigh and Essendon Grammar
Peninsula Grammar
Yarra Valley Grammar

And the two Geelong schools.

Private boys schools or co-educational schools?

There are 13 private boys schools in Brisbane, 2 in Ipswich (which is slightly smaller than Geelong, but there would be a lot of students from the surrounding agricultural areas), 1 in Toowoomba, and 1 on the Gold Coast.

Obviously being QLD, they play Rugby Union and not AFL. Though AFL is now a term 1 sport for some of the private schools.

Tier 1....boarding (boys only) schools with the finest chefs...yes, there are heaps of tier 2 private schools...some co-ed

He will be top ten now. Season for the Knights has been strong, too.

Not sure about top 10 but he’s rising. Putting together a very good season so far.

 

[Half Back Pocket]

Not sure about top 10 but he’s rising. Putting together a very good season so far.

He's extended out to solid midfield minutes as well. Not just a small forward anymore. Definitely the barometer for Carey

I know they are minnows, but Camberwell and Trinity also exist.

Add Marcellin as well

Of course.
I had a feeling I was forgetting a couple of them.

Think you’ll find the convention of those considered Tier 1, relates their history & established reputation. Not recent footy status….Which always covers those with boarders, whether boys only or co-ed. Definitely the 2 Geelong schools fit the mould.
Generally being the original APS schools (pre the expansion of the early 60’s) who all date back to the 1880’s or earlier.
That said the scholarship issueing frenzy of the last decade, by some has seen efforts made for greater time in the spotlight…

Indeed this is so.
However with Hailebury knocking over CGS with some ease in round 2 does suggest it “may” now be a 2 horse race….aside from any surprises which are always a chance in this comp.

Insane finish to Scotch v Grammar.

Scotch were leading all day, looked to have wrapped the game up when the lead was 20 in the final term. However, Grammar came back from the canvas and booted a goal with a minute to spare that was never played. That kid will be a hero!

Did the clock not stop after the last goal?

The goal was kicked, clock kept ticking and then the siren went.
