Merritt and tries

[innsaneink]

Ive heard Nathan Merritt holds try scoring records for the SSDJRL, now I know junior league games can be decieving at times, have heard situations of average/good players scoring 6 or 7 tries in a game against substandard opposition, some kids my sons played with & against would be up around the 100 & 200 try mark already after 5 seasons.

Ive heard it mentioned in media several times Merritt holds records for Souths juniors, anyone know just what they are, and also you chance to brag, tell us about your own try scoring feats, or those of your mates or oppositions....persoanlly I only played for about 5 seasons, both codes for about a dozen pies- if that...very ordinary footy player was ink, glad the boy dont take after me.

In the years that i played, i bagged myself about 4 tries. .

I remember Damon Alley-Tovio scored 6 tries in a Flegg game for Souths a few years back.

South Sydney Development Junior Rugby League?

44 tries in one season in the under 8s, 45 the next year in the 9s.

Then I discovered cinnamon doughnuts and got too fat to run around everybody.

I'm happy with my choice.

Ahhh ...district??

Who for, nook?

 

[S.S.T.I.D]

Ahhh ...district??

LMAO!

 

[Nook]

My local team in the Bs and Cs respectively (in fairness I was being kept in the lower grades because my best mate's dad was the coach and sucked balls when they moved me to the As from the 10s onwards)

I can't say which team because as you can imagine I hogged the ball a bit those years and I reckon there are still a few disgrunteld ex-team mates trying to track me down and beat me. My grandma was giving me $2 per try, what's a kid to do.

Give a dollar for every mate that gives you a try?

 

[Nook]

I spent it on doughnuts. C'est the vie.

Or could it be...you're lying?

12 tries in a season Is my top...

89/104 for goalkicking was my best.

 

[Stranger]

You actually wrote them down :?

 

[Dutchy]

My coach had a fetish for stats...would give us all a folder with singular and team stats at the end of the year

I think Merritt scored 40 odd points in a single game in PL only 2 or 3 years ago.

 

[Danish]

Only played a couple seasons of league...

My first ever try-scoring opportunity was a pearler. Second ever game, pouring rain.

I was on the wing defending, cut out pass went astray and I swooped on it with a beautiful one handed pick up on my bootlaces and streaked away. Fullback right on my heels I managed to avoid him and run 90m to dive over the try line....

and dropped it.

Horrible, horrible stuff.

That would be God punishing you for supporting the Roosters.

 

[skeepe]

I managed 1 try in 6 seasons. Awesome.

 

[macavity]

played front row from under9s to under17s

scored one try in my first season, thats it.

and it was in a game we won 82-0

I wasn't great but wasn't THAT terrible, just never seemed to get it up our end.
