NSWRL Junior Reps 2010

I think they'd need to play a certain number of SG Ball games to qualify for the finals.

Not sure what the rules actually are but I know Cheyse Blair was playing SG Ball for Easts today rather than NYC for that very reason

 

[MountainMan]

Hahaa your kidding right, no disrepect but he's neaqrly been the steelers worst player. 2 to look out for are Jack Bird and Deejay Harris

I watched a schoolboy game late 2009 ,Shannon Crook, looked years ahead of his age.playing half back,directed his campbelltown school team around beautifully,knew when to run,pass,etc.Very mature player,even made the Australian Merit 15s last year.

Havnt had a chance to watch him play this year....He isnt going good in Matts??

From what I know, Cheyse Blair was dropped to SG Ball due to poor form and another player coming back into the NYC team.

Yeah mate he;s been pretty ordinary most of the season. The odd good play followed by 4 bad decisions/plays :?

 

[isaiah]

is the final 8 just about settled leading into the final round, or will there be some upsets?

 

[stormy77]

so are there any dark horses in the matts, looks like parra could do with a loss before the finals bit to confident... would be nothing worse then going through without a loss then loosing when it counts... what is going to be the top 8, who could be a threat to them..... penrith, dont know about souths they rely to heavily on one player... knights not to sure,,,, anyone else you think could challenge them.....

I only really follow the SG Ball so can only comment on that, but the top 8 teams are settled going into the final week, it's just their order which could change (some dramatically) depending on results.

At the moment the table is something like this;

CRONULLA 14
WESTS 14
MELBOURNE 14
PARRAMATTA 12
CANTERBURY 12
PENRITH 12
SYDNEY CITY 12
NEWCASTLE 12
Souths 8

Cronulla play Souths, Penrith play Wests, the Dogs go to Melbourne (Cranbourne actually, poor things!).

Parra, Chooks and Newcastle SHOULD all win easy.

Check out nswrl.com.au for more info.

Looks like Week 1 finals matches will go like this;

SG Ball

(1) Cronulla V (4) Canterbury
(2) Wests V (3) Parramatta
(5) Newcastle V (8) Sydney Roosters
(6) Melbourne V (7) Penrith


Harold Matt's

(1) Parramatta V (4) Penrith
(2) Newcastle V (3) Souths
(5) Illawarra V (8) Canterbury
(6) Manly V (7) Wests


Winners of the Top 4 matches get a week off, with loser to play winner from Bottom 4 matches (Loser 1v4 plays winner 5v8 - Loser 2v3 plays winner of 6v7) . Loser of Bottom 4 matches eliminated.

So are we confident on any tips this weekend. here are mine at least for both SG Ball and Harold Matts..
SG Ball
I do feel that Canterbury will be fired up and get the points against the Sharks tip
Dogs
Wests too big and too strong in the forwards tip Wests
Roosters will be to classy for knight if they switch on although will need to improve on last week. Tip Roosters
Melbourne will find it hard to travel, could find themselves a bit flat tight one, tip penrith

Harold Matts
Parra are so dominant although need to play quality sides should dominate in forwards although if pressure is early from souths could panick.... Tip Parra
Penrith should be to strong for the knights, long trip for knights penrith will be to aggresive..... Tip Penrith
Illawarra will be tough down there, i feel that the dogs have had a good run lately with bottom sides close one.... Tip Illawarra
Wests have shown they are competative this year as well as manly,although feel that manly could get this one.... Tip Manly...
Be interesting to see what other people think.......

 

[scruffy]

Roosters played their bench last week. Gave Fine, Atkinson, Blair, Brent etc the week off to freshen up for finals. Agree the performance was poor against WSAC. The Knights and then the Sharks could have some trouble with this very inconsistent team.

Agree with most of those.

Over the last two weeks i have watched Wests SG Ball play Melbourne followed by Penrith. I am hoping for a Penrith win because it will make our life easier but I think Melbourne will beat them. Melbourne are a well organised team.

Obviously also hoping for Wests to beat Parra in SG Ball.

In the Harold Mats Manly won by a big margin last time against Wests...so I can't really see Wests getting up there.......but they might........Ohh that's right forgot about the great master coach...we got no chance.

 

[stormy77]

Caught parra yesterday, just didn't get the money in the ball, although their matts looked dominant, they are going to be hard to beat,,,,,Maybe penrith could but have to wait and see....

Watched the steelers harold matts yesterday and boy what a great game. Dogs up 16-6 at half time, steelers come back and lead 22-16 then go tit for tat until with 3 mins to go dogs up 32-28 and steelers score right in corner. Dee Jay Harris coverts 1 metre in from touch to win the steelers the game. great way to finish a good game

Rooster v Sharks

There are some very good side and tradional clubs running around here, it should be a great display of talent out there this weekend what do you think, and who do you think will win........... One thing is it will be hot out west... no breeze for the beach boys..
