Juniors - Pathways General Discussion

Isaac Perkins is in my top batch of potentials coming through our pathways. Today's DT has him ranked in the top 50 teenage rugby players in the country.

Hopefully we can hold onto him like we've done with Makasini & Glassie.

No. 35 ISAAC PERKINS (NSW): Another Riverview student and No. 8 at the recent Australian schools rugby championships. Has spent time with Waratahs Academy and stood out as a leader. Also plays rugby league and SG Ball. Showed great leadership as captain of the winning NSW I team at Australians schools championships.

I read he is also playing a year up in age group.
 
Holy Cross will take on rivals Illawarra Sports High in the first of two elimination finals as part of a four-game finals extravaganza at Campbelltown Stadium on Wednesday, August 12.

Christian Azzi is one of the most experienced halves in the Peter Mulholland Cup, having earned special dispensation to make his debut for the school three years ago as a 15-year-old.

The Balmain Tigers SG Ball Cup halfback has developed massively both on and off the field in that span, becoming one of the most influential game-breakers in the competition.

“He’s been awesome,” White said of the halfback. “His body’s filled out. He can kick long, he can kick goals. He’s pivotal to what we do.

“He’ll have to play his absolute best for us to beat Illawarra because, without trying to take the underdog tag, they have a pretty impressive forward pack.

“We’ll just have to rely on Christian kicking us down there and see how we go from there.”

Holy Cross was dealt a cruel injury blow on the eve of finals with strike centre Jarrod Kanaan ruled out with a suspected anterior cruciate ligament tear.
