No real loss here.

On another note, it was great to see Cook have such a good game for the Dogs last night. An example of how some guys are not ready for the NRL once they turn 19 or 20. Some take longer to develope, however can still turn into very good NRL Player. A couple of years playing NSW Cup, (reserve grade), can be very good for a players development.

I think he's already gone. That team he's playing for is in the NRC, which starts soon.

I've noticed Ben Crooks in the team list over the last couple of weeks.

I thought I read a post some time back regarding him returning to England.

What's his contract situation for 2016?

 

[Delboy]

Crooks go to UK at end of our season, signed a 3 year deal in Superleague

He's playing for Canberra Vikings in NRC. They had a bye Rnd 1 and their first game is next week vs NSW Country @ Woollahra.

woollahra? - I can see why canberra (or nsw country) are calling that their home :?

It's so those leather patch latte drinking tossers from the eastern suburbs can see rugby at a local ground. ;-)

Actually it looks like they are moving games around the metro area so everyone has a chance to see a match. --> http://www.rugby.com.au/Portals/31/Images/2015draw/2015_NRC_Fixtures_General.jpg

NYC underperformer Tepai Tepu-Smith playing NSW Cup today. Is he being assessed on whether he is worth an NRL contract next year or is he just a better option than any of the available Wenty contracted players?

I could have sworn he played NSW Cup for Wenty a couple of years ago. Dunno why they're calling him a debutant.

I might get up them...

Mamary had big wraps on him a couple of years ago in the Roosters 20's team. Be interesting to see how he goes.
Yeah Parata has played NSW Cup for us before and the Panthers too.

Was Matterson injured? Or a stand by for Notman for tomorrow? Hope not
