Yeah well I board with Tarrent and Cody Sibosado and they are not on sporting scholarships. Cody is on a Indigenous type of scholarship, and if u try to call it a sporting type scholarship then i like to inform u and tell u that he has a younger brother, who played in the 10B's and he is on the same type of scholarship. Tarrent is no scholarship wats so eva.
Cheers
yeah exactly it is extremely rare for Xavier to go out and give someone a sporting scholarship. Good article written in the Xavier news magazine that goes out once a month on scholarships.dee_123 said:

Exactly right - you try getting an awesome Footy team in an entirely academic school. We don't have sports scholarships like some. We have brains.unirossa26 said:
We almost always have a good solid team - this year we have a better than solid team - and to compete with the Private Schools is a good effort where I am concerned.

Wesley, actually. And obviously they're not in the same predicament, so it doesn't faze me.
And I 'don't have brains'?
Absolutely fantastic retort - remind me again of how you got accepted into Melbourne High? Or are you the janitor or the curator or something?
Being underdone equates to 10 goal losses does it?

The following was printed in Xavier News in regards to sprt scholarships:
-The Heads of the APS have agreed that the following guidlines will apply in the allocation of scholarships where sporting talent is an element of the selction criteria:
- No student will be awarded a scholarship unless the Head believes the student will gain a broad range of outcomes during his or her schooling.
- Reciptents of such scholarships will be held to the same standards of behaviour and expecatation as other students and should actively contribute to the life of the school beyond their sporting experise.
- It is neither fair nor approiate for schools to offer scholarships at senior levels for the purpose of winning priemerships or gaining dominance in particular sports. - Neither schools nor the representatives or associates of those schools will approach students or their parents with the purpose of offering scholarships or promoting scholarships applications based on sporting prowess.
(Someone show this to Haileybury and Caulfield)

exaclty what i said here.
Just back from the Scotch Melb vs Scotch Perth match. Scoreline read: Melb- 21.10.136 to Perth 4.2.26.
Absolute carnage. Melb's full-forward, Jacobs, kicks 12 in three quarters. Sherwin across half-back was a standout. Yeo's also off half back did well. The Aboriginal boys, Rioli and Djukurra, have sublime skills and will be an evasive duo come round 1. Melb's had 6 regular starters out so it was an impressive effort albeit against a lacklusture opposition.

rubbish xavier dont give out sports scholarships, they just hide it well.
i know 1 guy who is on a football scholarship and hes not overly smart, cant play music and doesnt really play any other sport than football. Another guy was offered a football scholarship for this year but didnt take it.
