Knock-on Effect NSW Cup - Eels Team

[hindy111]

What's others thoughts on the juniors playing for Wenty?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Today's team inclluded five players eligible for Flegg. That's pretty good.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

If Stefano can develop his leg speed he'll be a beast. If not he'll need to change his style or not play NRL.

Salmon,Kafusi,Stefano,Parry,Dunster.
Which ones do you rate?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

All except Dunster are potential first graders. Actually Salmon is a near certainty to have a long NRL career.

I kind of like Dunster. I saw him early in year and I didn't think much of him but has developed a lot physically.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah he's put on some weight. But still not powerful enough for a winger. Can he play anywhere else?

Pretty sure he's spent a good amount of time at fullback...

He's got the talent but likely not the size tbh.

True. He may bulk up in off season. I thought he was only just turned 19. Already 20 and so maybe your right.

Who was Wenty 20 today?

 

[Tooooks]

If NRL was like NFL we could have Lelesiuou (sp?) on for attack and off for defence.

Who was Wenty 20 today?

Some kid. But he went alright.

All aboard the Wenty Wagon!!

All aboard the Wenty Wagon!!

Toot toot with the Timmynator!!!

Although he is young I think Dunster is too small to make it in the NRL as a centre. 187 cm and 90 kg. 20 y o.

Guth is 190 cm and 96 kg and he is borderline size wise but makes up for it in ability and work rate.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Dunster is about the same size as Curtis Scott though.

Wasn't it Shufenhausen on the wing ?

What's his story? Looked very good...Never seen or heard of him before....Danny Alvaro should be eligible for selection in the GF....is that right?
Andrew Davey is a goer at this level....

You’d think Alvaro, Tep, Stone and possibly even Niukore will drop back to Wenty for the remaining game/s. Its a pretty damn strong reserve grade side.

What's his story?

Schaafhausen was in the Wests SG Ball team back in 2014, along with Ray Stone and Taniela Paseka: https://www.weststigers.com.au/news/2014/03/04/r4-western-suburbs-junior-rep-squads/

Looks like he was told he wouldn't be offered an NYC contract because by October he was up to no good: https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...es-armed-robbery-charges-20141025-11bpzn.html

He reappeared in 2017 playing Sydney Shield for Wests. Last year he played reserve grade for Newtown and now he's at Wenty.
