Junior Sharks in Finals

[Snoop Shark]

No doubt you are happy you were wrong Snoop.

Likewise if you talked to some Parra and Penrith people a while back we were no chance.

Absolutely! Like I said these boys didn't really rate the quality of sg ball when I spoke to them but I wonder what they will say when I see them next!

And bluey 13 is the one and only Billy Magoulis. He has had an absolute killer season.

 

[Card Shark]

I think he took the hit-up prior to the match winning try - sucked a few in & allowed us space in the corner.

 

[Southern Shark]

Great day for the club. All sides won except Newtown who just lost by 2 at Belmore Oval. Nrl and Toyota Cup won on the Gold Coast no doubt buoyed by the juniors. HISTORICAL DAY.

 

[Frank Discussion]

The whole junior coaching crew were in the locker room tonight celebrating their season. Good in them. It shouldn't be forgotten we operate on a budget a fraction of the big clubs.

 

[Card Shark]

Well deserved - time to let their hair down - would've been hard to hold back after last week's memorable triumphs.

 

[THE MESSIAH !!!]

So proud of the junior Sharks great to see the boys take out the title, glad we have bye next weekend, it will give some of the SG Ball a rest as i would anticipate some getting call up to u 20's to give them a test

FYI - The junior GF's are back to back on fox sports from 2:30 today.

& yesterday's National Champs are on next Friday arvo.

 

[THE MESSIAH !!!]

Just watched the stream of yesterdays game, I seen enough in Curtis Scott, to see him have a crack in the u20's this year, he looked good in running the ball and offload was great.

Some of the backs look good, hoping couple of them come through

 

[Snoop Shark]

Hearing a few boys got the call up to NYC which was expected. Magoulias, Savage and Curtis Scott are the names I'm hearing. Obviously there are more just not sure who.

A few which I'm shocked about being left out are Tuilagi and Timu. I seriously can't see these boys hanging around. I've heard they have told them to play in the local A Grade comp which I don't think will happen

Snoop doesnt the NYC cup have salary cap as well, could that be the issue in with the others not being called up to NYC

Not sure exactly how it works but id assume there would be something in place. I'm definatley not saying those that got picked are not worthy but I really feel for Tuilagi. Speaking to him when he first arrived he had one goal and that was to make NYC. Now there is a difference to having a goal and working toward that goal but if anyone seen the kid's work ethic in sg ball for a winger he really did everything in his power to make that squad.

I just hope he doesn't come back to bite us. PLENTY of potential

Lets hope he does get run before end of season, maybe they are going to move them up gradually

Kids would get a shitload more playing against men in a-grade than the touch Como that is NYC.

 

[Dragon Slayer]

I'm a real big fan of Curtis Scott.

So glad it looks like he is getting a call up.

They don't see it that way although I agree.

For them it's more about the bright lights and getting seen.

These QLD fellas were pretty much homesick as it was so for them to get told they had to play for Gymea or another A grade team it was a bit of a kick in the guts particularly when they had their sights on progressing on. If they hung around Id be very shocked

Snoop i can see where they are coming from, they can go home and be with family and play in reserves for QLD cup, we need to ensure that there is a pathway and it is explained to them

 

[RUBIKS]

The boys I thought were good and deserve a call up or at least consideration were:

Kennedy
Yorston
Savage
Magoulias


I actually thought Flanagan played really well in both grand finals. I think he's playing up an age too? Can anyone confirm?

Also in the 16's Salmon was a weapon. I hope we have him locked up.

Someone needs to set them straight then and also explain the plans to scrap the NYC cause it's shite.

The problem we have is someone promised these guys a promotion into 20's before a ball was even kicked.

It only leads to disappointment which is what the current situation is. At the end of the day they are still kids and they don't see the bigger picture unfortunately

 

[Card Shark]

We can only off so many a start. We obviously already have a squad.
