The award-winning concept that is The Season returns to where it all began.

Nudgee College is the yard-stick to which all schoolboy rugby in Australia is measured, and this year the series returns to Brisbane where the First XV faces adversity on and off the field as the GPS Premiership finally kicks into gear after a CoVid-disrupted 2020.
The documentary follows the coaching staff, players and supporters and they prepare for the daunting threat of defending champions Brisbane Boys College, competition underdogs Churchie and the giant-killing Ipswich Grammar School.
In its trademark ‘access-all-areas’ style, Onion TV – in association with Nudgee College and Cluch – brings you eight episodes of fast-paced, high-octane action in a cinematic experience that will dig deeper in the sport, the school and its personalities than ever before.
We trust you will enjoy The Season as much as we do.
The Season | Series 9 | Episode 1
Nudgee are within reach of an undefeated GPS season, but visiting Ipswich Grammar have other plans as the seconds tick away on the final game of a fractured season. The episode takes viewers back to the heat of pre-season, where the building blocks are implemented as part of the wider Rugby Program. As Round 1 approaches First XV trials pit mate against mate for the coveted Blue and White jersey.

The weather was dreadful but the playing surface was great so there is no real excuse for such another poor standard of play from both sides. Dragons just the better team. But, what a shocking decision by the TMO not to award the Fifita try. This pretty much sums up Welsh rugby with poor teams and poor officials. The WRU have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done quickly to avoid rugby being lost to our future generations.
Go to commentsNo chance of Borthwick selecting any young talent. He announced his selection policy from the outset with naming a poor OF as Captain, retaining an equally poor Youngs and Vunipola brothers when there were many better EQP in the Premiership. SB revival of Leicester was based on SA muscle and a terrific Welsh flanker he has generally ignored young English talent.
