[Big Pete]

Did Billy ever play club rugby ? Yeah sure he went to Nudgee but played League for Albany Ck from U7 & then trf to Pine Rivers approx U13.

According to some Rugby forum - yes.

 

[APRIL BELLE]

According to some Rugby forum - yes.

bet he played 5 times more club junior league matches than club union matches

 

[Big Pete]

Probably.

Got any tips out of that lot who will make the biggest impact in NYC?

 

[RugbyLeagueWhizKid]

if kodi nikorima puts his head down he will make it very far.
i went to primary school with him, was mates with him and lived up the street from him. hes got a mean side step, plays like benji.

 

[Didgi]

I will slap the shit out of you BP if anyone of them end up down there, especially Talolo!!!!!!!! You can have Pangai....................

:lol: Hold BP personally responsible. Merkin ;-)

Other new faces...
Nathan Crowley - Cowboys NYC Prop

We'll call it even then?

I'm sure you can guess why I'm here Pete, looking to get one over Maunder yet again... young Webster looks good but you didn't manage to get anyone in the Aus Schoolboys?

 

[Big Pete]

Came to the wrong place Didgi - PWA is my guy.

 

[Didgi]

You stole the Grev. You owe me, big time.

 

[Big Pete]

I wish I stole the Grev - Ben traded his way to the top of the card and took him after I had prattled on and on about how much I wanted him on MSN.

 

[Didgi]

That's right. An even greater crime.

 

[Big Pete]

In all seriousness Didgi I'm unsure whether or not I can help you out. I didn't really study any of the juniors this year and I'm unsure whether PWA selected all the top prospects. Not to mention, I usually found better alternatives at other clubs who were available so I'm unsure if the Broncos are a good bet.

Taking a shot in the dark I recommend researching Rhett Webster, Corey Oates, Levi Aumua or Caleb Timu and see who you like. Mad Barry is always tough, especially around this time of year when there is little to go off on.

Wow that is a big squad

Pete do you know of any of the new players that we should look out for?

 

[Big Pete]

:lol: Quite clearly not.

I was expecting big things from Francis Molo & Corey Oates. Neither of them are there.

Leedy, Cullen and Alvaro are all worth checking out.

Mind you, they're up against it coming up against Wynnum.

Whats happened to bj burgess?

 

[Didgi]

Anthony Mullally in action for Widnes this morning. He was big in NYC last year, he looks absolutely massive this year. Hasn't had a whole lot of involvement thus far.

 

[Seagullsrock]

Wynnum won 32-22. Nothing to write home about. Wasn't paying much attention but Tuala and Nikorima seemed hard to handle.

 

[Big Pete]

NYC GOLD COAST TITANS 22 (Tyler Chadburn, Jahrome Hughes, Jeremiah Nia, Caleb Binges tries; Japeth Vaoa, Kane Elgey, Tyler Chadburn goals) defeated NYC BRISBANE BRONCOS 20 (Daniel Levi, Brett Coutts, Brett Greinke, Daniel Alvaro tries; Cameron Cullen 2 goals).

 

[APRIL BELLE]

Whats happened to bj burgess?

dropped out of football

 

[Big Pete]

In case others missed it - Brisbane were up 50-12 in their trial against Melbourne in Melbourne according to our resident Storm expert Noa.

Now if only we could get confirmation and a list of scorers. The lack of info these past couple of weeks has been frustrating.
