A big reason our reserve grade is undefeated.So he's good?
A good 14 needs to be able to defend in the middle. Both Cole and Laurie aren't fit for the roleBit older. 24yo 5/8. Came from the storm juniors as a youngster after winning their best player.
Played for st marys then our nsw cup since.
Hes really impressed when ive seen him in cup last 18 months.
Hes tough. Good running game and nice short kicking game and hes a genuine 6 unlike cole who is more stuck in the peachy sort of mould..
Hes probably behind laurie, cole and schnieder for next year but i genuinely think hes a real chance. And the club obviously do to given hes been upgraded.
Moving to the ft squad i think he will go from strength to strength.
And yes schnieder has been ok but i also have seen a fair bit from him that has been quite unconvincing too.
Anyway competition for that 6 spot next year is really healthy and it will bring out the best in the 4 of them.
Cole for me is probably the perfect 14 guy.
I do like laurie as a 6, but id need to see a bit more of him in the top grade to see how his defence holds up. If his defence is solid then he probs gets first crack i think. Hes a genuine livewire and he has a bit of moylan about him in terms of ball playing.
So he's good?
I reckon we should give toleau a dev contract. He’s small but a very dangerous attacking player, a bit of Cody walker about him imo.

Not to be that guy but august last year I said
I'd be going for one gun forward. Either middle or edge and then work around itHavent been convinced on Mav for the last 2 years.
Like ive said a few times the only game ive seen him grab by the scruff off the neck was the flegg gf they won years back when he took it upon himself to get the boys home.
Hes just a avg nsw cup player tbh.
Soro has been great... soo bloody good for us.. i think hes got another 18momths in him.
Not like hes played a lot of nrl. Hes not a 300 gamer. And he treats his body like a temple.
But if theres two spots we need to recruit its prop and 2nd row.
Hassett isn't really what we need i dont think. Mav isnt quite it.
We have to go to market for at least a prop and a 2md rower.
If we cant get a big name star, then get 3 or 4 gun juniors in those spots. Blokes that are in the 18-20yo bracket that are knocking the door down at their club and waiting for a chance.
Find the next kikau, get the next haas out there.
I love that we are a development club but some of our best players have been guys weve got at that age. Kiks was soo good for us and we got him just at that right age were we could really mould him.
We developed him. Yes it wasnt as a junior but he learned how to be an nrl player here.
Do we try get 1 star like a fifita or stefano... or do we go hard for 4 gun juniors...
1 prop
2 2nd rowers
1 hooker
Give em all good wages for 3 years and see where it takes us..
Hahahah I just wrote the same thing. I'd offer him 700k a yearAngus Crichton is not signed for 2025. We should go after him with the Fish money. Really standing up in this Broncos game
Haha every time someone has a good game ppl on here wana throw money at them.
Angus has said he wants to play rugby.
Hes had 2 or 3 good games.
Hed need to put together another 7 or 8 consistently, and be prepared to commit to league before i even thought about it.
What lol??Nah he has been the roosters best forward all year by along way.
