Congratulations Bronson!

[Snide the Tiger]

Nice to see another Tiger coming away with a try last night in NSW u19s big win over the maroons!!

 

[brook]

He scored when he played NSW u/17's too

I guess the next step up for him is the real thing ;-)

 

[Snide the Tiger]

Just as long as it's not for the Waratahs (get your fingers out management)!!!!

Will Bronson play NZ or Australia given the choice do you think?

 

[Snide the Tiger]

I'd hazard a guess at NZ - but Origin always beckons.....

 

[brook]

Got no idea - does anyone know if he was BORN here or over there? I know his family are from over there but dunno about him

could just depend on who picks him first

 

[Snide the Tiger]

Born in NZ!

 

[Tigerpete]

Congrats to Bronson on last night too! I was very surprised he was only on the bench though?

 

[Snide the Tiger]

May have been on the bench - but played for 60 straight minutes and from all reports was a dominant force in that time!

 

[brook]

Well if he was born a Kiwi I'd say he'll be most likely to stick with them

Mind you if NSW pick him before the kiwi's do that could change his mind

 

[oro]

He's a fine player and the type of running backrow forward (or centre) the WTs need. Hurry up and resign him!

I did email Steve Noyce about the Tigers Flegg side and the depth of talent in the team, especially Caldwell, Wara, Pangai and Albert. He advised that the "pleasing thing is that most of the younger players are contracted for next season". It can be read two ways I guess but hopefully the club has moved quickly to sign up the talent.

 

[Tigerpete]

Yeah, to say i've been impressed with Pangai and Alberts would be a massive understatement, geez those guys are good for their age! These 2 in particular are very talented, once can only wonder what their future holds?

 

[brook]

I've been saying for a while that Pangai is capable of going as far as he wants. Up until this year he's only lacked consistancy but now that he appears to have learnt that there really isn't much that can hold him back - he has as much natural talent as anyone in the club.

As for Alberts - like Thomo last year I think he's been Balmains best signing by far.

 

[oro]

Is Alberts related to Ashley Alberts who was from Nth Queensland?

 

[brook]

His brother I think

 

[Tigerpete]

yeah pretty sure he is the brother. looking like the better prospect of the 2 as well.

 

[Mighty Tiger]

Is Alberts related to Ashley Alberts who was from Nth Queensland?

Spot on!

 

[Vicious]

Definately is his brother and it wouldn`t be a bad move to try and lure Ashley to the Tigers as well.Seen him play for Qld u/19s last year where he carved the Blues up every time he touched the ball.I think he`s having a bad run with injuries at the moment,but is a tremendous talent,believe me!By the way,I remember reading that Jermaine had played a handfull of Qld Cup games for the NQ Young Guns.Gee he must have been young!

Isn't Ashley signed up for another 2yrs with the Cowboys ???

And your right about Jermaine its funny because I always call him by his brothers name at the games lol but he did infact play for the young guns last year - he really is a talent and I actually think he could be playing PL very very soon if Sheens gets what he wants ;-)

 

[Vicious]

Ashley Alberts is at the Broncos this year.Although he`s injured at the moment,he didn`t get much of a go early in the year and i`m nearly sure seeing that he only signed for 1 year.A Tiger next year I hope!
