I'm with you there Burgs.
I'm sure Hale is prob the best PSA rugby school at the moment. Not every school will win the Redmond Cup, but every school has the potential to produce good players.
And its really up to the players whether how badly they want to improve. You may have someone like Kurtley Beale in your team, but you still might not win the cup or be the best team. Likewise, you can have a really good player in your team, but if he doesn't want to improve, then you can't help it.
I'm sure every school produces good players. Even Guildford has produced Cruz Ah Nau, prob the best forward in the PSA at the moment. But as Burgs said and as i mentioned earlier, there are much larger factors to choosing a school for your kid than rugby. And i would definately send any kids of mine to Scotch for its balance.
I don't know about it now. But back when i was in school, and that's only 3 years ago, PSA schools did offer scholarships to rugby players. They gave out 'Music Scholarships' to good rugby players who could prob only play a single tune on the guitar. I've got a friend who got one.Originally Posted by Mtbeaver

And if you really want to drop names for coaches, as Mtbeaver mentioned, Scotch has 2 development officers, 1 current School boys coach, the Headmaster's a former rep player( his son's a current rep player i think), an U19 current international player, 2 schoolboys players as coaches. And just for the kicks of it, its a multiracial mix of coaches, with south africans, irish, NZ, English, Singaporean and of course, Australian. So in a way, the players get a good mix of rugby from everywhere.
