Penrith Panthers Harold Matthews premiers for 2010!
What a weird SG Ball competition...
The Dogs and Maggies were the best sides all season....Then some side who couldnt beat a Western Sydney Academy side in Rd.9 comes from 8th to win the comp....Go figure!...lol.
Congrats to them though.
Canterbury and Wests played the SG Ball season in the spirit it is intended as did the other top teams Cronulla and Parramatta.
The Roosters on the other hand have no interest in the good of the game.
In 2009 they didn't even field a team.
This year they finished 8th in the regular season.... but wait then decided to bring down a couple of players from their under 20's team for the SG Ball semis...there's nothing like teaching kids to win at all costs...good work Steve Noyce.
Exactly correct, all these players played and trained with the 18's ALL SG Ball season. Cheyse started in 20's and was moved down to 18's mid season, when he wasn't playing 18's he didn't play 20's either, can't see a problem with this at all??Jacob Miller, Nick Dorante, Jared Allen, Asipeli Fine, Adam Brent, Paul Rokolati and Dane Atkinson all trained with the NYC squad in the off-season but once the SG Ball season started, they trained and played with the SG Ball side. Cheyse Blair was dropped from NYC due to another player returning from injury so these players were not exclusively dropped down with the sole purpose of winning the SG Ball premiership.

What a bitter and twisted post! Not only do you insult the Roosters lads who played the whole SG Ball season and won fairly, but by inference you also insult your own Wests players by implying that one player beat them. You have set yourself up as some self righteous bastion of fair play and have slaped the faces of twenty five u/18 players, many rejected by other clubs who travelled and trained together three times a week for 5 months. I realise this post won't change your opinion but maybe you'll have a look at your last post and realise how unsporting and insulting it really is.Can't see a problem ? :crazy:
Cheyse Blair played the 1st 6 rounds of Toyota Cup .... Blair was dropped down at semi final time so the Rorters could cheat their way to an SG Ball win..his back in 20's now..what a surprise !!!
Congratulations to Cronulla, Wests, Canterbury and Parramatta management and players for playing the competition in the spirit it was intended.
Roosters go and raid some more Penrith juniors for next year or is it Newtown's turn to play next year.
I dont see anything wrong with the post, actually, I tend to agree with it.
Wests V Canterbury would have been a ripper GF, instead we had a team that couldnt beat a Western Sydney Academy side in the final round of the season, play a team that played the bottom 7 teams in the competition.
Something needs to be done about the scheduling of the junior reps. Either start a little earlier or reduce the teams so that everyone plays each other once with the home side alternating each year. Parra's draw this season with ridiculous.
The loss to Western Sydney Academy was because we rested some of our best players including Jacob Miller, Asipeli Fine, Cheyse Blair etc. I agree, it would have been a great GF if Wests played Canterbury, but our young guys stepped it up a notch and beat Wests, IMO the best team in the competition this year by far. Cheyse Blair is back up in NYC because the player that returned from injury forcing Blair to SG Ball has been injured, hence why Blair is back in NYC. We have another kid named Boyd Cordner who would have played SG Ball this year as well if he wasn't injured. IMO just because they train with the NYC squad doesn't mean they can't play SG Ball, which is their rightful age group. Chris Taripo from Canterbury played more than a few NYC games last season yet played SG Ball this season.
Fair enough the Roosters may have rested players which would explain the loss, however I dont believe Wests were they best side in the competition...One of the best, but not the best. I thought they played a very boring type of game..Scoot, scoot, scoot, hit up, hit up...Give it to their 5/8 who would bomb. I guess if it works, stick to it though and good luck to them.

I dont believe for a second that Boyd Cordner would have played much SG Ball either. This is a kid that got a first grade trial. Surely they wouldnt put him in an 18's comp when he could play Toyota Cup.
The Dogs could have had Lachlan Burr play SG Ball this year, but have kept him in NYC and he didnt play one game of Ball.
