Knights have finally put most of their squad up

Josh Ailaomai - giant prop
Shaun Boss - second row
Ethan Cook - Aus schoolboy lock
Dane Cordner - small prop but plays well above his weight
Issac Dargan - big centre from the country
Nicholas Dwan - fullback - terrible the few times i've seen him
Jared Edwards - big winger who had a firstgrade trial last year
Kieran English - big Kiwi winger
Jonathon Ford - 2 metre tall fullback who offloads like a prop
Byron Fruen - a hooker who is doing a firstgrade trial as a winger this week?
Mitch Garbutt - giant prop who did 12 offloads in a game off the bench last year
Trent Hilton - second row
Harmony Hunt - kiwi centre - cousin of Kharmichal
Ryan Lamb - NSW under 17s winger
Chris Marlborough - hooker or second row
Peter Mata'utia - the next Timana Tahu, and he has three younger brothers just as good
Angus McHattan - prop from the country
Alex McMillian - second rower
Kevin Naiqama - back
Manny Osborne - Kiwi Hooker
Jeremy Papamau - winger coming back from cancer
Theeran Pearson - Halfback
Ryan Stig - 5/8
Zane Tetevano - massive second rower
Ben Tupou - Anthony's brother - the biggest and best of the four Tupou's
Simon Williams - beast of a centre
Ben Wyborn - was a 5/8 or lock, but has apparently been training at hooker

1 - Ford
2 - Mata'utia
3 - Williams
4 - English
5 - Papamau
6 - Stig
7 - Pearson
8 - Garbutt
9 - Osbourne
10 - Tupou
11 - Tetevano
12 - Cordner
13 - Cook

14 - Fruean
15 - Wyborn
16 - Ailoamai
17 - McHattan

The Knights should do much better this year, although they look a few second rowers short, and most of the forwards are pretty young, with 3 still being young enough for Ball.

The Knights have some quality backs and maybe one or two forwards short of a very good pack, but they look very short of halves.
Stig is a big 5/8 - not tall, but solid as a brick outhouse - he has a great passing game but not much vision and not much of a kicking game - and Pearson is a nippy little bloke who can run through a gap, but again he has little vision, average passing game and average kicking game. The only other two are Mika and Wyborn who are 100kg plus guys more at hame at lock.

Why did he leave the knights?
Haven't heard anything specific other than the Knights let him go, but it wasn't because of lack of ability.
Either way he is just 18, so he has plenty of chance to turn things around in 2 years of NYC. He was one of our best backs after coming up from Ball last year.

I heard he didn't do the right thing at school. Didn't think he had to do his work, etc.
Apparently the Knights let him go to show that they are serious about the NYC players doing the right thing.
