Around the Grounds

[perverse]

If Best starts the year strong again next year they'd be mad not to pick him again. He's got a real opportunity to cement himself in that team. Hopefully adequate motivation for him to have another huge preseason.

 

[Woody90]

Next year is going to be all about the Souths combination-
1. Mitchell
6. Walker
9. Cook
13. Murray

Latrell would literally die playing fullback at Origin level.

Latrell would literally die playing fullback at Origin level.

You’d have to balance the team to take in account that Latrell won’t take 27 hit ups like Teddy but him sweeping out the back behind Cody would be hard to handle.
Reece Walsh showed that quality touches in the right spots far outweighs lot of runs and tackle breaks

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Latrell and Best would make a lethal centre combo

 

[Old dog]

Think Teddy is done, been great, Turbo gone too many injuries so Mitchell f/b leaving centre positions vacant with Bests performance tonight making it hard to see him missing out, up to him now to perform accordingly

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

This player speaking ban is a joke

Teddy was good tonight but my god his defence and positioning leave a lot to be desired.
I’ve been critical of Crichton previously but I thought he was really good tonight, you also have guys like Staggs, Tago, Penisini, and Burton.

 

[Apey]

Teddy still got in the way a bit, but not as much as the previous two games.

 

[Old dog]

Thought Crichton had his best game, meaning he and Best are likely centres SOO 2024, up to them to perform leading up to selection

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Still think Dylan Edwards would have to be in contention for the fullback spot next year

 

[Yosh]

I have always been super critical of Crighton at Origin level but he stood up hard tonight. Defense was legendary.

 

[Zoidberg]

Booo NSW!
Happy Best had a good debut.

 

[aqua_duck]

Still think Dylan Edwards would have to be in contention for the fullback spot next year

He’d be right in contention for sure

 

[Knight Tales]

Haas is going to market. I hope we can at least have a conversation.

 

[slotmachine]

No chance, don't have a spare million laying around.

 

[ryan.a87]

Both safs are probably on a combined 1.2-1.4mil

ship them off to tigers so we can sign Haas

Ethan Ferguson looking good in NSW under 19s… and we don’t have him any more.

Not even sure we have any representatives in this game. How shit.

Myles Martin and a couple on the extended bench for NSW. Pretty sure that's it

 

[aqua_duck]

Ethan Ferguson could really be someone we regret losing big time. He looks like Brian To’o/Greg Marzhew out there running over everyone

 

[aqua_duck]

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 and raiders hooker Adam and brother in law of knights NRLW player Yasmine.
