So why did they buy Smith from the Panthers ?

Can't have enough dummy halves Gronky.

We learnt our lesson in 2021 finals when poor old Ray Stone had to be thrown in the deep end with Mahoney, Roache & Lussick all injured.

We only had 4 injuries at the time and 3 of them were bloody dummy halves. Talk about bloody cursed.

My little birds tell me he ain’t much chop and was way down their pecking order.

You made that up, right ?

Mitch Kenny and Soni Luke might have the inside running to take over as hooker at Penrith Panthers, but Ryley Smith could be the name to remember for the long term at the foot of the mountains.

Yeah because articles talking up juniors at clubs never happen?? If he’s so good why was he shipped off to England and why is he at Parra now??

This bloke has been signed to play Flegg while Matty will get first crack at Reserve grade which is fair enough if he’s half as good as all wraps are saying.

Gronkles sure is feisty this morning!!

RLP says he in 21 is two weeks (Born 21st February, 2003 Current Age20 years and 350 days)

So he's not U21 when the comp starts. Can he play Flegg ?

.....says you had to be turning 20, born 2003 to play Flegg.

So we can all assume MA will be starting the year in Flegg I also think Sanders and a few other Flegg eligible players will start the year in Flegg.

Smith will play 14 in Cup with Hands at Hooker.

Asi will play half in Cup as well.

With AMS broken, remind me who will be our starting FB in reggies ? I have drawn a blank. Could be Asi. Tweedle ?

IF Asi, then Hands plays 6 and Smith starts.

Some suggestion it will be Blaize.

 

[JokerEel]

Some suggestion it will be Blaize.

Yeah TCT has been banging on about Blaize to be turned into a fullback.

So that would mean he is 1 for CUP and Twedle 1 for Flegg.

So our Reserve spine players are:

Fullback: Blaize / Twedle
Halves: Lynn/Sanders/Asi/Hands
Hooker: MA/Hands/Smith

Gee what would we do without you???

My point still stands if this bloke was much chop he wouldn’t have went to England and they wouldn’t have let him go. Let’s face it Kenny and Soni Luke are hardly superstars.


Matty has been training with the big boys and this bloke hasn’t, so who do they see as the better prospect??

I like how Twidle plays. I reckon he will make it.

Same it all depends though how he is developed.

With the talk of Blaize being made a fullback I can see him being forgotten about.

He's a big body (L), so players like that usually find their way onto the wing in FG anyway.
