    2018 NSWRL Senior Comps - ISP, Flegg, RMC, Shield

    RLF, how are these lads traveling so far? the Dogs' ISP team (and their NRL team for that matter) is not performing very well at present and these lads might earn a call-up if they are performing well. So far they have only been named on Dogs' extended benches but they may push for a spot if...

    2018 NSWRL Senior Comps - ISP, Flegg, RMC, Shield

    Has anyone seen Addision Demetriou play recently? In all honesty this lad should be in the NRL, or at least playing in the Jets ISP team. He has all the talent in the world but a reputation for not being the best trainer in the world. Judging from the photos I have seen he is looking very lean...

    NSW U20's 2015

    Pangai is a great player but Adidison Demitrou will more than compensate for his loss. As I stated earlier (and provided he controls his aggression) this kid will shine. It's been a long wait in the wilderness for AD - and he is primed to shine!

    NSW U20's 2015

    I too am somewhat bewildered about Funaki and Pangai. Injured? I wouldn't think so given both were named in their club's respective VB Cup teams. Maybe it's a case of, "well I already got one of those jerseys up on my wall; it's right next to my Junior Kangaroos one!" I thought Dufty was...

    NSW U20's 2015

    So true! IMO the power should be taken from the clubs when it comes to selection! If the coach chooses them then they are obligated to play - and if they refuse sanctions with respect to future rep selection should be imposed! Something similar used to occur in rugby union with respect to the...

    No Brenko Lee? Injured? Ineligible?

    NSW U20's 2015

    LOL@D&G. I couldn't agree with you more! Perhaps they will ring everyone on Sunday night with the question; "hey mate, you're not planning anything special for Wednesday night are you? How would you like a couple of free days in 'BrizVegas - Lozza's shout! The fact that all the clubs have...

    NSW U20's 2015

    Here is my prediction - Addison Demetriou to be selected, and to absolutely star in u/20 Origin!

    NSW U20's 2015

    D&E, It should be named tomorrow! The junior Origin teams always seemed to be named no less than 10 days before the date. I said last Monday, however I forgot Origin III wasn't until the 8th of July. For whatever reason I had it in my head that Origin III was being played this coming...

    NSW U20's 2015

    Firstly, you're assuming that I am questioning Dufty's ability as a player - when and where did I say (even suggest) that his defensive abilities were lacking? As a RedV member I get to see a lot of Dufty's games my friend. I am merely expressing my 'personal' opinion that Latrell Mitchell is...

    NSW U20's 2015

    What you say is true to a degree, however don't forget that QLD will be in the same boat (e.g., Valentine Holmes etc.). With respect to finding room for Dufty, where you put him? He would be wasted on the wing as he is best in 'loose play' with tiring forwards in the middle. That is where he...

    NSW U20's 2015

    I couldn't agree more! Dufty is a gun fullback, and in terms of attack I consider him to better than Mitchell. Nevertheless, NSWRL Selectors always seem to lean toward more 'defensive' players and that is where Mitchell has it on Dufty - IMO anyway. There will be a few selections based on...

    NSW U20's 2015

    Well sports fans, with the U/20’s selection due very shortly (probably this coming Monday, 22 June), what will the likely squad be? In my view this year’s team will look nothing like the U/18’s of 2013 as most will be unavailable because of NRL commitments. This is a shame...

    National junior championship

    As a Dragons supporter I can now finally breathe easy knowing that what I have been saying for all of my life (i.e. That it's all Cronulla's fault) has been acknowledged by one of their own! Now that's what I call manning up and taking one for the team! LOL@Miller IS a legend PS: @Juniors...

    NSW U20's 2015

    Thanks for that SoM. I'll take a stab and suggest SOO III which is being played at Suncorp.To date none of the previous U20 Origin games have been played in QLD - which is unlike the 16's and 18's which rotate each year. Am i wrong here? It is my understanding that all U20's games (since its...

    NSW U20's 2015

    Just out of curiosity does anyone know the confirmed date when the U/20's SOO will be held? Given that the 'Representative' weekend (which goes from 1-3 May 2015) will feature the Junior Kangaroos v Junior Kiwis (on 2 May 2015), you would have to assume that no SOO will be played during this...

    Dragons rookie Euan Aitken as the next big thing

    I could not agree more! While others were talking up Bird and Harris in the juniors for last several years (and justifiably so) Aitken was quietly going about his business in being the best he could be; and he doesn't have a bad track record either; 2010: U/15 Australian Schoolboys Merit...

    Addin Fonua-Blake stood down by Dragons

    I would have to agree with you on this point. First he was discarded from the Bunnies and then the Eels and now the Dragons. The kid has an evil streak in him a mile wide and you only had to watch him play in his junior years to know this. I remember watching one of his brutal incidents...

    NSW U20's 2015

    Has anyone heard iany news about the NSWRL U20's and U/18's 'Origin Pathways' squads? There is usually an announcement in or around this time of the year! Maybe Lozza is having an extended skiing trip in Canada ... lol!
