Junior Kiwi's were quite convincing in their win too, should be a good game coming up. Will the curtain raiser on Saturday be shown on TV at any stage?

Dissapointing, will obtain a copy of the game (I assume they provide one to the players) and copy it for any who would like it.

mate...I'll have to keep in touch because I'd love a copy.

Sorry guys, I didn't get to see a lot of the lower grades this year due to distance of travel. So my question is what style of halfback is Trent Hodkinson and who could we could compare him to, past or present, and what do people think of him as a prospect considering we have T Smith, Finch and Green already at the club in a similar position.

Thanks in advance guys

a definite prospect but has a long way to go, he's slightly big for a half back might be a future 6, not the explosive type abut has very neat passing game, sound kicking and very smart between the ears, knows when to run the line and works well with his outside men, if i had to compare him to a half back of yester year I would say he reminds me of John Simon.
