Gordon up to PL ahead of Jon Wright is just silly.

None of the U19 reps named.

Campbell gets a run after a few games in the local comp after his injury.

The team is just about the youngest we have put on the field this year. It is more like our 'traditional' PL sides with an average age in the early 20's.

 

[northey]

your right it is a very young team.

do you think campbell will impress? i have seen a few of his games (mostly from last year) and he was ok in a couple.

 

[single_newy_chick]

how do u know this roopy? it isn't on the website?

 

[northey]

roopy knows all

 

[single_newy_chick]

also how is it that they have still names mullen on the bench for FG but yet every other under 19 rep isn't playing this week?? Does anyone know if they are changing the first grade bench?

roopy knows all

Stop flirting with Roopy.

 

[northey]

hahahaha, that's no flirting... lol...

you need to have lost a skirt...

 

[antonius]

They must figure Mullen has a bit more fitness than the other guys. He backed up last year after a rep game as well. I doubt they will change the first grade line-up. As far as the lower grade guys go, they prob saw that as an oportunity to give guys like Campbell a run back here. Much like we were saying in the other thread, about the premier league side being so unsettled.

 

[single_newy_chick]

i dunno about putting grant and steele back in the side though, thats just silly. theres only so many times u can let them have a crack!!

 

[northey]

who would you rather then?

 

[waltzing Meninga]

You guys will have a tough time against us with the side we have this week, its probably stronger than our FG side

[single_newy_chick]

well i dunno really, but those two are not very good, i think the flegg boys would be better then them.

 

[northey]

why pull more guys out of the flegg side, when they are such a good chance at winning the title this year?

 

[antonius]

Vaughan must've really upset someone, not to be able to get in the side, I was tipping he'd make first grade this year. The couple of games I've seen Steele play I thought he went well. Pretty sure it was him that was on the end of a brilliant try some weeks ago that Hinton handled twice in and threw the final pass, one of the best I've seen this season.

 

[single_newy_chick]

well they have got to get experience some how!! they should be rewarded for winning. its a bit of a kick in the teeth for them for playing so well then having steele and grant ahead of them!! IMO

 

[single_newy_chick]

no hinton ended up scoring that try, im pretty sure.

 

[northey]

i think they would love to have a chane of playing FG, but i really think they would rather stay in flegg rather than be in the PL side and get flogged

 

[single_newy_chick]

but the side doesn't get flogged they have had some really close games.

And yes danny will be so P**sed, GO TO EEELS DAVID FAIRLEIGH we DON"T WANT YOU.

Didn't realise this guy (Terry Campese) was still around, he was going to be a world beater a few years ago. Hard to understand why Ale can't get a start in Premmy, in fact I would've thought he'd be a strong showing of first grade at the Raiders. He was a try scoring machine at the Roosters two years ago. Canberra seems to be a graveyard for promising young players. Even Tilse looks to be struggling to get in the team

danny v?

okay........
