So the youngsters also just plain give up when the other team takes the lead? Disgraceful - the Kearney curse is starting to spread through all the levels....

They're only 17, it's ok to give up.......

They did the same thing last week! Also remember, results don't matter, as long as the individual improves.

Funny thing is I would love too see what all people kissing Nolan's ass now actually commented when Brian Smith was doing the same at the Knights. He was shit caned all over the place!

So finally sombody has hit the mark, Nolan and Matt Cameron think its about developing NRL players well they are developing players who dont know how to win and accept mediocrity.

It's probably not a bad thing to have the youngsters playing up a level and getting hammered. They will fit right in when they step up to the NRL side.

how are kelepi, frasier and pauli developing?

Kelepi is finding his feet,still has a lot to learn.Fraser is handling the step up ok.Pauli still has a lot to learn,if he can get over his inflated ego and learn to play for 80 mins. The dogs gave them a lesson but when you take
the 5 out of aside that have been pushed to NSW cup and replace them with SG Ball players from a week comp who could not make the 8 you will always be doing it tough.:eek:

Broncos under 20s got belted by the Warriors.

Last week they got belted by the Titans and the week before they were belted by the Raiders.

That's probably why their juniors never end up good enough for first grade.

In unrelated news, our NSW Cup side with all the 20 year olds did well today.

TOYOTA CUP
Toyota Cup v Canberra Raiders, 11.45am at Canberra Stadium on Sunday 13 May:
1 Corey Makelim
2 Semi Radradra
3 Connor Broadhurst
4 Jacob Gagan
5 James Tuitahi
6 Mitchell Brasington
7 Robbie Kamato
8 Frazer Masinamua
9 Luke Vescio ©
10 Jarrod Azar
11 Jordan Hall
12 Kelepi Tanginoa
13 Joseph Ualesi
14 Dom Reardon
15 Toby Key
16 Rodney Moefaauo
17 Pauli Pauli
Coach: Steve Speechley

SG Ball fullback Corey Makelim - one of the Club's brightest young prospects - will make his debut at fullback this week alongside several other of his SG Ball teammates playing the higher grade.

In-form fullback Jacob Gagan moves to centre for the clash while James Tuitahi and Toby Key both return from injury.

Clicky

Lots of changes this week as injured troops get back into the trenches and another youngster gets a promotion. Corey Makelim comes into fullback, which pushes fellow youngster Broadhurst and Jacob Gagan into the centres. Semi Radradra backs up from his return game against the Dogs on one wing and James Tuitahi makes his return from injury on the other flank. Robbie Kamoto is back as halfack, pushing last weeks debutant Dom Reardon to the bench utility spot.

Masinamua stays in the front row as Jarrod Azar and Kelepi Tanginoa come back into team via the starting pack while Jordan Hall retains his spot. Moefaauo and Pauli Pauli drop back to the bench and they are partnered by Toby Key, who is also part of the former injury ward reinforcements and is playing his first game this season.

EDIT: The two younger brothers in John Falou and Jamil Hopoate seems are absent (of course they aren't the only ones...just the most prominent given their surnames)

Good test for our kids today, we won't beat them but I hope we can make them work for it, half our side are 17 year olds...
