I look forward to it.

So you can come up with another batch of meat balls to stew us all over with. Great, looking forward to it.

Josh Aloiai and Zach Dockar-Clay are surprise inclusions after heavy involvement in the NSW Cup team in the pre-season.

Nathan Davis is named at fullback with French in the halves (as opposed to Davis in the centres, French at the back) and newcomers Abbas Miski and Aaron Pene stake spots on the flanks. Backrower come centre, Tyrell Fuimaono will likely play on the right while Reimis Smith - still eligible for SG Ball - should line up on the left.

Dylan Izzard and Alec Bush will fight it out for the utility role on an extended bench while SG Ball graduate Tom Amone earns a spot on the bench after an impressive pre-season in the front row.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Very strong side with Aloiai and Dockar-Clay.

Jesse Cronin is a big omission. He seemed to have copped a knock to the knee last week so hopefully it only keeps him out for this weekend. Robert Afu is also MIA.

Still waiting on SG Ball.

what happened to that stick insect that played 5/8 ?

what happened to that stick insect that played 5/8 ?

That would be Travis Turnbull I presume. He worn the #19 last week but has the #6 this week.

no not him, he played 5/8 and sometimes full back and he was over 6 foot and really skinny and he could kick the ball a mile

may have been the previous year

Yeh I know the guy you mean. Skinny blond guy. Mitchell Brassington?

 

[Forty20]

Brassington seems to be it. Not sure what happened to him after the NYC.

He might have gone to the Wests system initially?

 

[Twizzle]

that was him

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I just noticed the Storm have withdrawn from the NSWRL junior reps comps. That would explain why they are no longer sending players to the Sharks NSW Cup team, which has itself become defunct. The Sharks are now using the recently unattached Newtown Jets as their feeder club.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Brassington seems to be it. Not sure what happened to him after the NYC.

Think he may have played first grade in group 6 last year (not sure which side, maybe the one Frazer went to)

 

[nackers]

Brassington is back in group 6 playing for the oaks tigers

 

[Poupou Escobar]

That back flipping little merkin Erin Clark is named at 7 for the Warriors' NYC side. He doesn't turn 18 until September.

 

[Obscene Assassin]

It's all good Pou. We got Bevan French.

 

[Townsville]

What is going on with the bloke from the Cowboys deluis ??

 

[Forty20]

Kurt De Luis will presumably start from the Ron Massey Cup (playing for the Guildford Owls) or even the Sydney Shield depending on where the club thinks he is at from next week as he is behind 2014 incumbents Alex Twal, Tepai Tepu-Smith and Brandon Raeli while Australian Schoolboy Tom Amone nailed down the final spot in the front row after strong showings in the pre-season games.
