SMH
The
success of the Independent Schools Association and Combined High
Schools rugby teams this winter is reflected in the choice of
players in New South Wales’ 22-member squad for the national
carnival starting in Perth next Monday.
ISA’s historic first defeat of CHS, 37-17, had much bearing
on the choice of the NSW Schools’ two squads with CHS in
turn inflicting defeats on Combined Associated Schools, 38-24 and
Greater Public Schools, 31-25. Unfortunately, clever five eighth
Tim Donnelly (Marist Brothers, Eastwood), so important in
ISA’s defeat of CHS, sustained a broken collar bone and
could not be considered for Perth.
ISA players chosen include tenacious St Patrick’s
(Strathfield) No 8 Matt Tooher, Chevalier’s explosive winger
Marty Schliebs and prop Casey Dunning (Northolm Grammar).
Phil Abbott (Newington), Hercus and prop Will Ashton (Cranbrook)
and fullback Andrew Hindmarsh (Kings), all of whom played against
England Schools, missed NSW Schools Firsts selection.
