WELL DONE LADS, PROUD TO BE INVOLVED,

Fantastic achievement. Well done to all concerned. Y7 is THE FINAL. The Y10's were unlucky to get a difficult draw v a top Yorkshire school and lost their semi final. Still when you look at it Standish had 2 semi finalist and Fisher only managed 1. The only ones to reach a final are Standish. Who would have thought it 10 even 5 years ago. Well done to Ged Staz and his team. The Sharks deserve some credit too as I can recall as a youngster that if you were from Standish you had no local team to play for.

Where is the Y9 final? Rose Bridge? Might nip down

1985 RC and we only played union at Standish. We daft gits even held a strike and refused to play Union unless we could play League. Of course it failed. Nowadays, there are umpteen mad RL fans in the Standish staff room.

Our of interest RC (one of my pet annoyances), how many of the Standish HS team made the Service Area for that age group?

3 from yr9 team

Right Cross and co. You may notice St Pats have a team picand news clip on the Wigan RLFC website. Me thinks those Y7 Standish lads are as deserving. Maybe have a word with Ged Staz?

Congrats Theo on the service area. Still cannot believe Trent's son did not make it.

Ged Staz, didnt do too well with our school rugby team. We didnt even get training practice. Positions where left up to myself and another to sort out etc.

Its the final today, y9s are against golborne. My high school.

Standish must have some quality if they beat them. Us y11s often play rugby with the 9s at dinner and they dont make it easy for us.
