Jayden Sullivan

Was it Jayden Sullivan playing in the Koori cup?

If it was he is going to be a star.

I just hope we also sign that young Brayden Gilbert from the Cowboys who also plays in the halves..

How awesome would a halves pairing of Gilbert & Sullivan be?

You can just imagine the Dragon Army standing there on the hill, all belting out:

“We are the mighty Dragons of St George and Illawarra
We’ve defeated Canterbury, Manly and Canberra
We have different home grounds, playing in many localities
From Wollongong to Kogarah we’ve got players in many categories”

Or the Gilbert O Sillivan song referring to the Dragons
Mary extended again....naturally!

It was Carlton

So his a young man with a lot of potential and you guys believe our great mentor coach Mcnothing will bring him along....
I can really see him going backwards ...

 

[Carlton]

It was Carlton

He was playing against some very experienced old heads in those games, first graders and some of the brightest prospects coming through the ranks and looked like a seasoned professional. He was only 17? I think and yet was physically holding his own, directing the team around and putting together some really creative plays.

He is the real deal.

Carlton agree lets hope it works out that way.
And we get the best out of him

I know, big expectations but he is still young and the question is can he develop. Based on what I have seen though he is already almost there.

Bud was already signed to us, he has now been added to the Flegg squad along with a few others.
Aaron Schoupp made his debut last week and Blake Dowel will this week.

Bud and the Feagai twins have been in the NSW camp. Expect them to be given a chance soon.

I am very happy that we have secured young Jayden Sullivan. The reports on him are fantastic. I have only seen highlights of him, but he looks to have a complete game for a halfback. He has a good short and long passing game, good running game and good short kicking game. I know it is a massive step to first grade and many don't make it, but at least we have him in our system. Good halves are very hard to come by. His is slightly built right now. He has even already been compared to Thurston.

Ty Wishart is looking good as a 5/8
He has been out injured this year and has bulked up.
Looks as strong as his old man and more skillful.

I’m short a couple of wingers.. Any suggestions to help fill the forum “future superstar” 13?

But too early for Sullivan to take the #7 jersey from Shannon Crook.

Isaac Thompson on one wing?

Thompson is a must

I’ll bite: Kurt Landers and Shane Laloate.

I’d love to include Cameron Wade but he probably played too many first grade games.

Andrew Frew should also get a gernsey acknowledging his fine one game contribution for SGI circa. 2004

If we struggle to fill them, Tony Trim would pay his way onto one wing.

For charity of course...

Take your word for it Frank as I've yet to see the kid in action- however, at 17, he will take time to physically develop and this may take a long time or maybe never happen. One of the problems with Dufty is that his body is not a friend to him and his obsession to play full-back. . He's 24 and still struggling to put on weight. At 83 kgs he is the lightest full-back I'm aware of in the NRL. In fact, if Mary and the SGI HIgh Performance Unit staff had any sense, they would take him aside and tell him that the stats don't lie and he just doesn't have the skill set and body type to play full-back- ever!.

However, he does have a great passing and running game and he and Field may provide the halves combo to follow Hunt and Norman before, hopefully, Jayden is ready to step up to the plate in about 5 years time.

all sounds good until the roosters decide they may need him.

They've just signed Sam Walker from Ipswich, turns 17 this week.

He's the son of Ben Walker & was half for Qld in last week's U18 team that easily defeated NSW.

 

[Frank Facer]

superstar! Id love to see him paired up with NORMAN ohh yeahh!

I agree that pairing him with Norman to start his career off would be good. Norman would be able to take control of the game and let Sullivan find his feet in first grade.

I am well aware of Sullivan's slight build. I am also well aware that many young prospects, especially halves don't make it.

I agree Dufty's lack of size is a massive impediment.

 

[Frank Facer]

Was it a very difficult signing?

It shouldn't have been a difficult signing, but if he was being chased by several clubs, as reports suggest, then we did well to secure his signature.

I am also keen to see young Schiller (I am not sure if that is the correct spelling of his name) from Young join our ranks. He has some raps on him too. He is playing against grown men for the Young Cherrypickers.

Young Cherrypickers, what a classic name for a footy team. lol

I enjoy reading your reports on young talent.

 

[possm]

A good young prospect with loads of potential. I will look forward to seeing his progress over the next few years.
