I was wondering if anyone has any info on the players Assumption College might have brought in this year/ will bring in next year. We (Trinity) have beaten them in the year level competitions but we assume they will get better for first XVIII competition as they always do.

Thanks

On the field. Lost by 8 goals in a practice match but then beat them by 2 goals during the season. :D

Nah seriously, they usually have a very strong team and have produced many stars.

Mate obviously you know jack s..t! Consumption has never given scholarships unlike the city schools that offer scholarships for anything to be able increase their profile. The only perks at Consumption are a drive of the coach's car if your a New South Welshman who has his licence.

You will notice that Consumption is the only boarding school within cooee of any country towns in southern NSW & most of Regional Vic except for the Ballarat side of course.

Jealous city folk don't understand that money doesn't buy you premierships - just ask Eddie!

Nearly every APS/AGSV school does that...

Most of the AGS schools I used to compete against gave scholarships for swimming, tennis and acadamia but I can't remember too many football scholarships given out in those days.

I went to Camberwell Grammar - hardly a factory for footballing talent - and we still had one or two scholarships a year for football.

Assumption, Marcellin and Trinity still give out scholarships. Because of their area i'd assume PEGS would too. Not sure about Ivanhoe, Penninsula or Yarra Valley.
 
Ivanhoe was definitely a swimming scholarship school along with Mentone. Each had their forte' but I distinctly remember Camberwell having fantastic sports facilities including a wonderful indoor swimming pool!

Nah, we had an awesome outdoor synth hockey ground (the only sport we regularly win) and a pretty good oval.

Our swimming pool was a **********heap, although they did renovate whilst i was doing my VCE. I still have painful memories of eyes burning after five minutes in that water... :eek:

You may be right about Assumption not giving out footy scholarships - but i still have vivid recollections of getting pounded by 15+ goals every time we played your mob. :p
 
assumption do giv out footy schoolarshipz belive it or not. trinity and ivanhoe definately do as well. not sure bout other schools but i think PEGS do as well. the only school i know doesnt give out any shoolarships at all weather it being sporting or academic is marcellin. only side in the comp that can win without cheating.

Again, no idea.
 
trinity dont give sport scholarships, and thats a fact... we give general excellence scholarships to academics who just so happen to be able to play sport :)
 
Not sure if they do it any more but my father was given a football scholarship by assumption in the early sixties.
