HAHA!! darn tootin'!! hey man, that kids my age - only a couple of months apart, i'd be happy to make friends with him! (bad jess - has a boyfriend #-o )


BTW, while on the topic of redcliffe - i've been bumping into to daniel irvine a bit lately and last i heard he was making a move to redcliffe next year - he really liked the lifestyle and the game in the QRL and is gonna give it another year before he comes back to sydney. he also said that if i break barry berrigan's legs in the first half of the season he has a good shot at a broncos bench spot....

hear bazza bazza bazza................... :twisted:

Bad Jess....... :evil:

His gone back gto the Gold Coast. His always been a good solid player and thinks he wont get a shot with the talent going through. He only needed to bulk up. He said he may be back after finishing his degree. I hope so.

I wonder if he meant Flegg??...it would be interesting to see what our lower grade sqauds look like, we appear to be short of backs unless they've recruited a few more that we don't know about.

Iam really not sure. He mightve but he didnt seem to happy. But he has the view that there is life after footy hence why his leaving to finish his degree. I can see him coming back bulked up and better. Hope he still plays for Malta.

Marzella only problem was he was leight weight. These days u need to not only quick but big as well. Could u just imagine what would happen if Marzella ever came up against utai.

As we have said he needs to bulk up. A lot of players lose their speed once they do but I hopehe doesnt. He would never crack first grade IMO with the same weight he has now.

Well, Harold Matthews amd SG Ball are both only 9 week comps then the finals and they have a way of filling themselves each year from local school sides and competitions aswell as some players from the bush.

Flegg is the only possible problem at least for the start of the year before some of the SG Ball players get call ups.

However, Parramatta's 1st grade squad was 39 players (40 if Leuluai signs, 41 if Davis issue ever gets sorted)

17 players for 1st grade
17 players for reggies
thats 34 players still leaving at least 5 players

and you'll find similar to last year with Afamsaga if a player is still eligible for flegg and they don't get picked in 1sat grade they'll drop down to Flegg instead of reggies.

on top of that there are players not named in the 1st grade sqaud who can still play flegg guys like Daniel Backo, Kurt Sorsensen, Chris Thorrington, Ben and Zeb Taia etc

Some of these young blokes will move up into Flegg while a couple would still be eligible for SG Ball.
