NRL Rookies 2010

[skeepe]

Fensom has buckley's chance of winning rookie of the year.
Rookie of the year has to play for a Sydney club and has to be a flashy player.
Infact they should rename the award to "Rookie with the most media exposure in the year award"

Yep, it'll go to a back, there's no doubt about that.

 

[Big Pete]

When was the last time a forward won the award? 1999 Michael Vella?

 

[One Warrior]

For Round 4 add:

Bill Tupou - Warriors

 

[Big Pete]

Will do after the Round is completed.

He looks like a good prospect, one of many from what I saw on the weekend (Likiliki is a beast).

 

[Raider_69]

I think given Fensom has got 3 Dally M points already (or is it 4?) he's the run away leader in this category so far, if he plays out the year as a starter he might be tough to beat, but like Skeepe, naturally ive focused more on him

Plenty of talent yet to debut this year, im sure it will be another cracking field, hopefully this year it goes to a deserving winner, rather than a big guy with hair and awful defense

 

[isaiah]

For Round 4 add:

Bill Tupou - Warriors

it's bizarre that both will and bill tupou will debut on the same weekend

 

[Big Pete]

You can add...

Mitch Rivett - Brisbane Broncos
Ben Hunt - Brisbane Broncos
Will Tupou - North Queensland Cowboys
Ray Thompson - North Queensland Cowboys
Leeson Ah Mau - North Queensland Cowboys
Bill Tupou - Warriors
Dunamis Lui - Brisbane Broncos
Tim Browne - Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs
Martin Taupau - Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs
Daniel Fepuleai - Sydney Roosters

Blake Lazarus will join them this week,Fensom and Gillette are the front runners at present,but watch Andrew Fafita,he gets better every week,and Lazzo will star too if Sheens doesn't jerk him around.
Flanagan would qualify too as he only played half a dozen ESL games and no NRL.

 

[skeepe]

I don't mind Fifita, but he's got to get rid of the Hodges syndrome where he tries to pick a fight with anyone who dares to tackle him.

 

[Didgi]

It's been asked before: what's the position with Sam Burgess? IMO Fifita has looked destructive so far, Gillette solid, haven't seen much of Fensom. I'm sure Hokko Hodgkinson will mount a charge, good player. Ray Thompson from the Cowboys will be a good player, don't know if he can do it this year though.

 

[petetheileet]

How many games can you have played last year to qualify....

also if your are named for you debut on the bench but never actually take the field, is that classed as your debut??

 

[Big Pete]

4.

No.

Blake Lazarus - West Tigers
Sam Brunton - Sydney Roosters

Played on the weekend and can be added to the list.

 

[zombie jesus]

Trent Hodkinson a massive chance.

 

[Big Pete]

By 4, I should say, less than 4.

So no more than 3.

 

[Noa]

Word is Matt Duffie will debut this Sunday.

6"4", quick and has a huge vertical-leap. Will be a big part of the Storms climb back to the top in the next few years.

 

[MSIH]

Wonder how you signed that talented junior up?

 

[Noa]

Same way you guys signed up half of wests probably.

With a pen.

 

[MSIH]

Touche.

Always like watching young blokes with big wraps debut. Be good to see him have a run.

 

[Noa]

, matt duffie confirmed

Gareth Widdop will make his debut tommorow, in for dane nielsen.

 

[Non Terminator]

Both great talents.
Hope they have massive careers.
