Newtown Jets 2024

[Don Tweddle]

Jets win 26-10 after being behind at half-time.

Hunt and TPT turned the game, really rolled through the Dragons middles. A couple of very classy touches feom Rajab too, including one to set up a try. Strong game from Leiu.

Not sure, but looks like a good pickup based on today.

OK, next question

Is he a Shark or a Jet

I posted this last year when the Sharks were interested. In the rumour thread

I’m guessing a Jet. Surely there would be some mention of it in the media if an NRL side picked up a new player.

One would be inclined to think so. Might be an insurance policy

I saw one too. Maybe the same. The ponytail was gone and he asked about it

Interesting in the centres that Ve'alla is back in flegg with Gabrael.

Hiroti been moved to the centres and partnering Ferris.

As now round 10 I believe you can bring more options to first grade.

I could be wrong with Talakai going into forwards and body frame changing, is now Hiroti next man up if a centre goes down for a couple of weeks.
I would love Ferris to be injury free for a year

Jets get the win 22-16 over Blacktown after a last-minute Dykes try, his third of the day.
Thought Bradbury looked a lot more confident in this game, was hitting the line harder than he has before. Puru continues to struggle with end-of-set options but ultimately the Jets found a way to win today despite playing with a depleted forward pack.

Nice positive about Dykes and Bradbury.

Bradbury would be long term prop, he came here with big wraps but just a kid, 18 months in the system

How was Disco's defence though?

How was Disco's defence though?

He looked ok on defence though it was more of a case of him not being tested than a big tick for his physicality. Two of the three Blacktown tries were out wide and out of his control.

I notice Stonestreet topped 200 metres again 2 games in a row.

Hosking stats looked good, I think he will be that player in 2025 who gets 1-3 games in the NRL.

Bradbury as well looked ok.

I notice a guy off the bench Jordan Swan he was on a train and trial from start of season, came over from Roosters, I wonder if Fitz sees something in him long term
