Luke Towers didn't actually sign.

I hear that he ageed to terms then turned around and signed with the Roosters.

Perhaps Tristan Nisbet will get a run in the side...We recently signed him from Milton Ulludulla Bulldogs.

A quick google search from a kenneler gives us this...

Playing a mighty character role for the Dogs under huge pressure, custodian Tristan Nisbet did everything humanly possible to get the Dogs their third straight premiership. His gutsy converted try at the 25th minute, after cleverly regathering his own kick ahead, to bridge the score 14-6 in the Sharks' favour, was wonderfully inspirational. His two breathtaking sideline conversations via both the brilliant 32nd try by scrum half back and skipper Matt Simpson and the thundering try by pivot Ashley Hatch out wide at the 34th chime not only gave the Dogs a half time 18-14 lead at the break, but equally gave the Dogs a platform to win the game.

another one that I found...

Look out for a kid called Tristan Nisbet, played with him this year, he scored 39 trys for the season and kicked 93 goals. He scored more points by himself than the bottom 4 teams of our comp did. He's signed to Canterbury for next season, Will turn 19 in April next year. The dogs were looking to sign 3 other guys from our side, not sure if any of them got contracts.

I reckon you can throw Alex Butschies in the 2nd row there too, Maybe Jarryd Hogan at half if he's young enough. Or has Sticky got other plans for Hogan..?

 

[j0rd0_ShArKs]

Hogan will probably be starting half

if there is onw position in lower grades we lack it is probably halfback

13.Jamie Theoharous

14.Sam McKendry
15.Brad Goodwin

All of the above played Flegg this year. The team will be mainly made up of our SG Ball(Below) premiership winning side from last year, and a few from our Harold Matthews premiership winning side last year.

1.Zoram Watene 2.Josh Drollet 3.Michael Jennings 4.Willie Isa 5.Junior Tia Kilifi 6.Joseph Paulo 7.Dean Springfield 8.Tim Grant (c) 9.Lancen Joudo 10.Mitchell Cahalane 11.Jamie Theoharous 12.Brad Goodwin 13.Michael Leeds 14.Ross Tusa 15.David Dickinson 16.Shane Blackett 17.Chevvy Penehoe 18.Luke Vella 19.Velu Nuumaalii 20.Guy Hodgins 21.Masada Iosefa 22.Jarod Canon 23.Eroni Tara 24.Siosia Vave 25.Ollie Tia Tia 26.Matt Wade

 

[MIGHTY PANTHER MAN]

Thats a great line up daz escpecially that forward pack!
Joel Romeleo from cronulla will be our half back though!

 

[NikkiShark]

don't think he wll play halfback...
hooker possibly could be a 5/8 or lock

 

[Panther_Daz]

Romelo will have to work hard to get into the Penrith team. Alot of these guys have played together for awhile now and have established good combinations.

Masada Iosefa has shown he can play the full game at hooker now also. However, i do see Iosefa playing alot of First Grade next year. If thats the case, Penrith are abit thin on hookers under the age of 20, with Lancen Joudo gone, Romelo will be the next choice.

yeah, I thought that Iosefa was pretty impressive in the grand final..
Romelo will probably start on the bench in U20's at first.

no matter what the team is, I'm sure it'll be a very strong one

 

[Mitchsu Danger]

he was the one that kicked a parra player in the head when the parra guy was on the ground yeah?

Jowett will play up IMO

Jamie Buhrer,Jared Waeara-Hargreaves and Kenny Edwards will probably start in this comp as well

 

[NIGHTMARE-HITTER]

The New Zealand Warriors should literally field the equal of a junior kiwis line-up. Having said that Ivan Cleary has stated he would prefer and would pick his best juniors for the Auckland Lions Premier League before under NRL under 20's. Still this would still be one hell of a team to beat. But the likes of Sonny Fai/Russel Packer etc may not be there - But ill name them just in case. And check out the pack weight its up there with anything in the NRL.

1) Kevin Locke (Potentialy the fastest player in the comp)
2) Nafe Seluini
3) Jarom Wihongi-Henare
4) Siuatonga Likiliki
5) Howie Matthews
6) Elijah Taylor
7) Jordan Tuarae
8) Russel Packer ( 112kg)
9) Jody Henry
10) Lesson Ah Mau (110 kg)
11) Sonny Fai (107kg)
12) Ben Matulino (110kg)
13) Scott Jones

14) Constantine Mika
15) Upo Poaching
16) Eddie Purcell
17) Rusty Bristow
18) Ben Henry (Only 15 years old but a machine)
19) Toleafoa Leaupepe
20) Lance Sua-Poe
21) Nopoto Tuimaualuga
22) Daniel Palavi
23) Bill Tupou
24) Steve Rapira
25) Piripi Neho-Popata

I think your assessment will be pretty close to the mark.

 

[Panther_Daz]

I think your assessment will be pretty close to the mark.

I think Coote,Waddell and Graham will start in SG Ball now.

I would go as the replacements for the 3:

1.Zoram Watene
4.Jesse Sene-Lafoa
6.Matt Minto

Apparently Zoram hasnt left the club afterall and will play with Penrith next year, which is great news as the Knights,Eels and Warriors were all after him.

 

[caylo]

Timmy's a great player, no doubt but is struggling to find a place in the starting lineup at the moment and that's without the luxery of our talented Ball side.

Baiteri is the one to watch!!

I played a bit with Chads younger brother Tim. He is a big boy, and used to play prop at club level, and amazingly in under 15-opens he could kick a drop goal 50+ meteres. I don't know how far he kicks them now but he is very talented i'll give you that.

 

[Fibroman]

I think your assessment will be pretty close to the mark.

You never know, with the addition of Civonoceva and Woolnough to our front row, and young Sam McKendry looking the goods, with the possibility of T. Puletua being pushed up to the front row with his brother Frank...........Timmy Grant might find himself in the U/20's.????
