    I think you misunderstood what I wrote, I was questioning why any young person would want to move to Canberra.

    Match Discussion: Round 20 vs Wests Tigers @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

    I’d argue the worst was Hethrington and it’s not particularly close. D Saf ran hard and bent the line but would it be a complete D Saf performance without a few careless errors? If we just miss the 8 I don’t think AOB will get the sack especially if there’s no obvious replacement.

    Cannot fault his effort at all and he always puts himself in position to receive the ball from an offload, little things like that. I think there’s two things that really hold him back, firstly physical ability, but more importantly he lacks instincts and craftiness. Runs at the wrong times...

    Match Discussion: Round 20 vs Wests Tigers @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

    Crossland is indestructible, I’ve seen him get smashed, get run over, get ragdolled and at times there’s part of me that was hoping it’d be enough for him to at least get taken off for a check up or for him to be winded or something minor but nope he manages to get up every single time. I think...

    100% on the stupidity part, just some real lack of attention to detail. Elliott is starting to show good signs, tonight he received the ball 24 times and hit the ball up 14 times and passed it 10 times which is about the right ratio you want from your middle forward.

    I’m not sure what the story is with Clydsdale but Strange was previously signed to the roosters where his old man is the NRLW coach, both he and his sister left the roosters at the end of last year (despite his dad still being at the roosters) and his sister signed with us and for some reason he...

    I try to get around the idea of Hethrington and he’s got some good attributes namely his foot speed and the way he runs onto the ball but none of that can outweigh his ill discipline and utter stupidity.

    Yep very raw, ex junior basketball player who I’m pretty sure only started playing rugby league when he was like 14 or 15. He’s the type of kid our junior scouts would have told to take a hike

    Just on the under 19s game, 2 of the NSW players in Ethan Strange and Jake Clydsdale play for the raiders but really should be in our junior ranks. Strange is a central coast kid whose sister Jasmine will be turning out for our NRL side this year. Clydsdale is from Scone, brother of ex knights...

    good to see both Klemmer and Toa have retained some of the things they picked up during their time with us

    How many breaks have we conceded this year where you see one of the Saifiti brothers just jogging in the background

    Dare I say we need Kurt Mann out there because Crossland is starting to get very sloppy

    That’s unfortunate, he looks decent and is young

    I think he’s a decent back up option but would need to put on some serious size to play centre/wing. The guy who’s a more realistic shot is Laitia Moceidreke who probably wears the same sized jersey Dom

    Yeah he’s starting to get abit too much confidence and forget that he’s still Phoenix Crossland at the end of the day

    For some reason I thought he dropped that just because it’s a Saifiti

    Nah, he’s tall, skinny and really quick, I’d probably compare him to someone Cody Ramsey. He could probably play on the wing but he’d give you nothing in terms of those early tackle hit ups and you’d negate his best attribute which imo is his support play.

    Rumoured Targets 3

    Yep 100%. I think his best bet would be to head back to Qld and get a q cup gig with one of the feeder clubs
