Day 10 - Sydney

After finally reaching Cronulla we had a well deserved sleep with our new billets. Harry Ledger, Rob White, Will Page, Elliot Mack (Sanchez), Rory McCall and I woke up to a breakfast waiting for us on the kitchen table. As we waited for James O'Sulluvan to arrive because he felt lonely (!!) we all got in our hoasts car and headed for the Bondi Beach to look at the attractive scenery by this time it was already 20 degrees, after about half an hour, before heading off to the city centre towards Sydney opra house. Where we bumped into Stacy Wright and Dec McDougal. After spending the rest of the day touring around Sydney, and being amazed to the amount of people who actually turn up to a coffee festival. we all went back to the hosts house for a bbq complete with home made burger and 'apparently' an Aussie desert which was pretty much meringues with fruit. Packed our bags and looking forward to the match tomorrow.

Day 9 - Ulura/Sydney

The ice cold desert morning was not welcomed by the team after a short night of sleeping bags and 'swags'. The majority of the team remained warm apart from Aaron Bowers who happened to misplace his sleeping bag and so had to sleep in half his suitcase.

After a quick breakfast we head to Uluru to watch the sunrise, again like the night before the colour changes on the rock were incredible and the desert sun soon heated us up.

We began our base walk of Uluru at around 9am which took a couple of hours, our tour guide Clarky knew everything there was to know about Uluru and was happy to inform us, even Mr Webb learnt some new facts..

A squad photo in front of the famous rock was followed by a visit to the cultural centre where we learnt even more about the unique history of the area.

After a rapid lunch we headed to the airport for the 2 hour flight to Sydney for our first stay with the locals. Many of the boys appeared nervous about the few days alone with Aussie familys but I'm sure everyone will have an amazing experience. A couple days sightseeing will be followed by Match 2, a competitive game we all want to win.

Day 8 - Uluru/ Kata Tjuta

A 5:30am wake up wasn't exactly welcomed by the boys after the first night in Alice Springs. After breakfast we set off for Uluru (Ayers Rock) as the sun came up, other than the single straight road and the odd lorry there was nothing but desert for miles. Halfway through the journey we stopped for some casual camel riding in the outback. Only a few guys splashed out the $6 dollars for the ride, the best of all being Stacy and Johnny Mac riding the same camel, the camel didn't seem too pleased....

We made it to the campsite for lunch then we went off to the impressive Kata Tjuta rocks to attempt the 'Valley of the Winds walk'. After being nearly blown off my feet I managed to figure out how the walk got its name; after taking some stunning pictures at the Karu Lookout we headed back to watch the sunset at Uluru. The dramatic colour change as the sun went down was very impressive, however the rapid drop in temperature prevented most of the boys from staying out there too long.

A unique BBQ of camel sausages and roo stake back at the campsite was followed by the tours first Court session led by judge Nick Martino. A large number of the boys were punished for certain 'mishaps' that occured in Pier 21, such as eyebrow shaving, wetting the bed, just the usual. The worst crime of all was the false accusations made by a certain individual in an attempt to frame Sheldon Brown and even head of 6th form Adrian Norris. This was simply not tolerated and the individual involved has been punished.

The night finished by the fire under the stars, another 5am wake up and a freezing night lay ahead for us all, our tour guide Clarky had assured us none of the poisonous snakes or spiders would come close so it was simply a matter of believing him and surviving the night.

Nick Burnham

Day 7 - Alice Springs

Just arrived in Alice Springs, completely different environment. The day started with the guys getting up at 6:30 in the morning ready for a fitness session at 7. However this was in vain due to the hurricane force winds and torrential rain that was continuing from the night before. A text from Wilko confirmed training was cancelled, an extra hour is bed is always welcomed. The day continued as normal until after breakfast when everyone was packing in order to be ready to leave Pier 21 and Perth at 9:30. It was rushed and there was a lot of stuff left behind but luckily we had the coaches to pick this up for us.
On the coach we saw the stats from the game, there were a lot of positives but still stuff to work on. The video from the game was also realised, unfortunately some of the camera work wasn't great but we got what we wanted to see.
Check-in went smoothly and so did the flight, some of us got lucky enough to see The Red Centre. Landing though, we noticed the terrain was just the same on both sides. There was sand and a few trees, but mostly sand. We realised why it is called 'The Dead Centre'. The landscape didn't change from the airport to our lodging, 'The Outback Lodge'. As we got off the bus disaster struck, Skipper Harry Ledger realised he had left his passport at the airport and so he had to rush off to collect it, writing this now it's still uncertain whether he found it or not but we're hoping it's alright.
The place itself is nice, got a pool, in the shade, some local visitors (mountain wallabies) and some cliffs surrounding it. Tonight we're off to dinner and then tomorrow begins with an early start at a 5:45 leave to go to The Red Centre. Should be a good night.

Change of KO Time

Monday's game v Endeavour School is now kicking off at 12.30pm.

Day 6 - Perth

Today we woke up early for breakfast and training feeling tired from yesterdays game. After training we made our way to Perth on the train, which was interesting. we only had a few hours so we hit the shops and had a nice lunch, delightful!!! as it was Izzy's birthday we were in a rush to get back for her birthday meal. However due to the biggest storm ever and poor management from Mr Webb we all ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Luckily we managed to regroup and ended up having a delicious meal at the restaurant, we then swiftly returned to the hotel to catch some Zs for early training tomorrow.
Rob White

Day 5 - Perth

After an enjoyable time in Fremantle the day before, we started the day with a delicious breakfast at the hotel followed by light run throughs to prepare for our first game against Hale School. We then left for the school, and arrived surprised by the sheer size and beauty of the school and its grounds. After looking around the school, and enjoying the brilliant lunch and hospitality of Hale, we walked down the street to a lake and enjoyed the serenity. Hale School provided us with a great atmosphere to prepare for our match. Jonathan McMillan

Match Report v Hale School

The first match of tour was versus Hale, played under a perfect Perth sky. We started off at break neck speed with 11 consecutive phases resulting in our captain, Harry Ledger, going over for a try following a precise throw from Max Valler. Will Page narrowly missing the conversion. Played seemed to continue in the same way, until a dubious decision from the referee resulted in Hale closing the gap to two points. The momentum we seemed to have built up faded after this disappointing decision. The rest of the first half was spent on the back foot as Hale's kicker seemed unable to miss due to our poor discipline. The start of the second half, after letting in a soft try, was the start of Whitgift's comeback. It wasn't long until James Donohue crossed the whitewash after a number of phases and strong carriers from Rob White were strung together, utilising both forwards and backs. We stepped up the pressure however we weren't clinical enough and didn't score again until James O'Sullivan bulldozed his way over following threatening breaks from George Smith. We couldn't capitalise on field position towards the end of the second half and we were disappointed not to win, after an extremely strong second half performance. Pleasingly we came out of the game unshaved and everyone is available for selection.

Day 4 - Perth

We started the day with a delightful breakfast offering us a range of pancakes full English and cereal, although it was a shame to see Wilko's breakfast going cold after a slow start. We then had to prepare for our final session in preparation of tomorrows game. at the beginning of the session the team was announced for the game against Hale. The session consisted of mainly organisation and basic skills finishing with a captains run through where we actually looked quite sharp. After training we done some individual skills practising what we think our weak area are example tackling technique. We then had a further hour to get ready ready to head into town. We meet at 12:45 to walk into Freemantle which was more than a walk than expected taking over a hour, and to make matters worse it started raining. We then got given $25 to buy some lunch and food for the night, the majority of us went to the supermarket to buy some food which eventually we would attempt to cook hoping it was actually edible. When we got back we had the rest of the night to skill out , which involved Harry Ledger losing to Steve Smith in a tennis match. We then had some dinner which was actually ok. Now going to get an early night in preparation of the Hale game tomorrow hoping for the best.

Supporters Perspective

Australia is an amazing Place!

When we got of the plane, our first destination was Perth in Fremantle. The first flight path was 13 hours long to Singapore, we did not have any time to sit down and shop we just had to go on to the next plane to Perth for 4 and a half hours long. When we got to Perth airport we went on to a coach and drove to Pier 21 our Hotel for 4 days . On our first day in Perth we arrived at about half past 3. We unpacked and the Boys and Coaches went and played touch rugby and then we went out to a lovely bar/ restaurant and had a lovely dinner there. Then our second day the boys and Coaches played a bit of Rugby and then went into Fremantle and had a look around and at the Beach. We then had a lovely lunch and then looked at the Australian Football Stadium and Pitch. Then we are going out for dinner. It has rained today a bit, and got cold when the sun went down. It got dark at about half past five. AUSTRALIA IS GREAT!

Day 3 - Comment of the Day

The training was tough after a long flight. To be honest some struggled but most pushed themselves through the tiredness barrier. Infact Sheldon Brown did comment that the " altitude was causing his breathing and chest to be tight" until it was pointed out to him that infact we were training next to the Swan river and we were on the coast.

Elliot Mack won DOD prize and had to dress in the local attire, a striped prison suit, to match in with the locals.

After a great feed last night and what could only described as a phenomenal breakfast( memo to oneself, get up early so Margetson doesn't eat all the pancakes), body clock is returning to normal and we are off to see the sights of Freemantle.

Day 3 - Perth

After a long plane journey from Heathrow, everyone was relieved when we landed in Perth. The weather in Perth was pretty good however it was very humid so the first touch training session was quite tough for some. We went out for dinner at the nearby Left Bank restaurant and tucked into some good Australian style burgers. After dinner everyone headed bank to the hotel and chilled out in their rooms for the rest of the night. Due to the long flight everyone was quite tired so an early night was called and everyone retired at around 10 o'clcok. A quiet first night.

Day 1/2 - Flights and Arrival

We arrived at school at around 7 o'clock some were earlier than others. We all arrived in Whitgift kit as ordered to by Chris Wilkins as we do on many occasions. But as we all arrived in Whitgift kit James Margetson seemed to think he could arrive in whatever he wanted. So a quick change around in his bag and getting changed we were on to Heathrow.

As we were eagerly awaiting to check in, all we had to do was wait for Mr Webb to arrive but we had to wait around for around 15 minutes while he prepared himself at home overly anticipated. After getting through customs we were then told to wait around for an hour which was a pleasant wait due to the amount of shops we had to see.

The flight was a smooth but long one, and once arriving in Singapore we were told that we would have to rush because the plane was around 45 minutes late, once arriving and rushing off the plane the gate to Perth at Singapore airport was actually right outside the gate we needed so we ended up being early.

Even though the journey from Singapore to Perth was a rough one with plenty of turbulence it was exciting none the less. 4 1/2 hours later and we finally set foot on Australian soil.

Here we are......................

Players thoughts - Sam Cooke

As we enter the final week of preparation for our tour of Australia, it has become clear to those of us in the team last year, lucky enough to be part of the 2010/2011 Daily Mail winning team, what a huge amount of hard work and preparation there has been by all those that may not have been involved last season.

Hard work, alongside determination is a key part of any rugby player and I think this is embodied in any Whitgift rugby side, especially in the 1stXV. As everyone going on this tour knows, skills and talent are alone, not enough to make us reach our potential. Our head coach, Chris Wilkins has said from day 1, if you’re honest and work hard, you will get the results you deserve. I have learnt from experience that these are very wise words. Last season I was sat on the bench for the duration of the season, missing out on a lot of important matches on the way. However through hard work, learning and improving I managed to nudge my way into the starting line up for the final and won the ‘most improved player’ award at the end of season dinner. The boys should all understand that Wilko doesn’t say these things because he likes the sound of his own voice, it really does work!

National championships and big matches aren’t won in front of the crowd, or with 70m individual efforts. They are won at 7am in the ‘shed’ when no one is watching, doing circuits with our committed and excellent head of strength and conditioning, Ross Munro. Good things don’t come to those who wait in rugby, you must go out and grab them, and I think this tour party has made huge steps forward to building a solid foundation for not only the matches down under, but for the season in England. I think every boy on this tour understands that if they miss a session, they are not only letting themselves down, but the rest of the team and this was shown during our fitness forfeit for the missing players at the remaining sessions.

It has been a long pre-season for all the boys, beginning just after Easter with three sessions a week and everyone has seen visual and mental results and improvements during this time. However we must realise that the word work does not stop when we get off the plane in Australia, it’s only the start. We must continue to develop and improve as a side if we want to reach our full potential. If we aren’t improving as players and as a team, we are going backwards and everyone wants to be the best they can be, so keep up the hard work. It will all be worth it in the end!

Captain's Blog

Having played in the Whitgift 1st XV for the previous two years, I have come to realise not only what a huge privilege it is to represent the school at the highest level but the responsibilities that also come in doing so. In amongst the responsibility, the enjoyment that I personally along with many others have gained from both the rugby and the general culture of rugby at Whitgift has been fantastic. If the last two years are anything to go by then this tour and year ahead will be enjoyable throughout.

I think I speak on behalf of all those involved in saying that we are all incredibly fortunate to being going on tour this summer, let alone to Australia. This tour will provide us all with an experience of a lifetime and one that hopefully we will never forget. It is very unlikely that many of us will ever get to visit Australia again, and almost certain that we wont be given the chance to play against some of the top Australian schools. This will give us the chance to test our rugby skills against some of the best young rugby players in Australia which I’m sure I’m not alone in saying is very exciting in itself. We are also fortunate enough to be hosted by a few of the schools which will give us the opportunity to experience the culture first hand and potentially develop lasting friendships with the opposition.

In terms of tour aims, the five specified aims are obviously the priorities, but rugby aside; I feel that developing the right team culture on tour is crucial. This culture will play a huge part throughout the season and there is no better place to start connecting as a team than on tour. The tour will bring out the characters within the group as well as giving those who potentially have taken a slight backseat up until now a chance to be themselves. It will also allow current friendships amongst the team to strengthen and more importantly new friendships to develop. Forming these new friendships are more important when two new year groups come together for the first time; and we couldn’t ask for better surroundings in which to do this. This is imperative as within a successful team; no one individual is more important than any other and, along with hard work, is one of Wilko’s main focuses within a team.

The tour should aim to get us a step ahead of those teams we are due to play at the beginning of the season. The five games, regardless of the score lines, will test us both mentally and physically as a squad, especially the middle week where we have 3 games within 5 days as well as providing us that match practice that cannot be replicated within training sessions. It doesn’t just give the boys an opportunity to develop as individuals and as a team but also gives the coaches a chance to form friendships with the boys and progress as coaches.

I’m sure I’m not alone in saying that I really am very excited and wish all the best to all those going on tour.
