Predicted line-ups for 2008

[Panther_Daz]

I just realised i left Michael Leeds out of my side! He will be probably one of the first players picked for Penrith.

 

[Stagger eel]

You can't find a place in your top 17 for Australian schoolboy rep Tim Robinson?
Send him over to the Tiges we'll give him a run

Timmy's a great player, no doubt but is struggling to find a place in the starting lineup at the moment and that's without the luxery of our talented Ball side.

Baiteri is the one to watch!!

 

[Seagullsrock]

Galu Teo (listed as Broncos fullback) has gone to the Roosters.

 

[Deleted member 10972]

Sydney City Roosters:
1. Jarvarn White
2. Luke Towers
3. Hermani Moala
4. Antonio Winterstein
5. Alan Heldsinger
6. Ben Jones
7. Jarrod Hogan
8. Stanley Waqa
9. Luke Letele
10. John Clayton
11. Matthew Hall
12. Rohan Ahern
13. Anthony Cherrington

14. Martin Kennedy
15. James Tamou
16. Brett Lane
17. Tom Symonds

NRL: Shaun Kenny-Dowall, Mitchell Pearce.
Others: Baden Hall, Zeb Tahwa, AJ Taumata.

On that, there is a big chance Roosters will pick up Esi Tonga i hear, & Mase Masoe has been signed. Also, is Michael Bond young enough to play under 20's?

Waqa is the man!

I also hear Antonio Winterstein is a chance of being in the FG squad, big wraps on the kid.

 

[sharkie!!]

Trent Islin from titans is signed with penrith was surposed to go this yr half way thrw to play flegg!! unfortunently broke his ankle 2 weeks ago but very good player!!

[The Engineers Room]

I think there should be a CRL team. With only players from the country elligible, excluding Newcastle and possibly Wollongong. Surely it is an opportunity to get more country kids through the grades when they may never have been seen before. They aren't too far behind most of the overated kids in the cities tbh. St Pauls Kempsey beat Terra Sancta in the Arrive Alive Cup recently for example. Sancta were full of Ball players etc, St Paul's had zilch and they were far and away the better team.

There are plenty of Country players who are currently playing Jersey Flegg so there will be plenty who play National Under-20s even if they don't have their own side.

Didn't St Pauls have Albert Kelly who is with the Parramatta Eels?

The whole point of the U/20's is to have 2 teams per club playing at the same ground, perhaps a better idea would be for the CRL to enter a southern and northern side into next years revamped premier league competition.

Canberra, CC Storm, Saints and Newcastle are all basically country sides.
Canberra gets players from all over the south and west of the state, CC Storm from the Central coast, Saints juniors mostly come from wollongong and the South Coast, and Newcastle gets most of their players from Lake Macquarie, the Hunter Valley and the mid north coast - and next year you can bet half of the Gold Coast kids will come from the north coast.
That only leaves New England and the North West - and the Knights get a few from there as well.

 

[petetheileet]

Matt Mundine will figure in our side for certain

 

[NIGHTMARE-HITTER]

The Warriors have the next Benji Marshall in ELIJA TAYLOR. So forget Daniel Reagan...... I dont even think the Warriors are interested in him anymore.

Also STEVE RAPIRA the brother of Sam Rapira will definetly be there. And he hits even harder than his NRL brother. The only difference is he plays second row.

Also another second rower sure to be there is Toleafoa Leaupepe who looks ot be a real handful. I kid you not he must be close on 2 metres tall and has all the balls skills.

 

[Tizzun]

yep, Josh definitely won't qualify next year and I think Mase is too old also,

My team would be,

1 Tapatua Rea
2 Nathan Gardener
3 Taulima Tautai
4 Zac Russ
5 Fereni Moefeuo
6 Kris Keating
7 Trent Hodkinson
8 Tim Mannah
9 Anthony Mitchell
10 Johnny Mannah
11 Tony Williams
12 Rulon Nitira
13 Marty Lewis

14 Daniel Mortimer
15 Mitchel Johnston
16 Jason Baiteri
17 Duane Poeneki

Poeneki will be too old, Tim robinson could slot in on the bench?

 

[Marshall_magic]

Jason Baiteri? Seen him run around about 5 years ago, good player

[fourplay]

Why do the tigers have almost a full team of "others" while the rest only have about 3 ?

 

[girvie]

Because the Wests Tigers can choose from players from Balmain and Western Suburbs which means they pretty much have double the players to choose from so there are a lot which can't make the side.
