Wow, thats a fair chunk out of that GF side. Have they signed much to replace? If not, that will really test their depth, they could struggle.


Great too see so many different teams in the Nine's this year. Most diverse bunch of teams that I can remember

Seriously? Like, seriously? Dayne Craig will be welcomed back with open arms as he was a HUGE loss for the Mighty Maggies (2014 RMC player of the year) and Mullaney has always been a huge talent from his days at Gregs. I'm very, very happy with this due to my personal connection to them.

Pretty sure he had about 3 seasons with the Cols, on and off. Was always one of their stand out players. Went well in the cabra 9's. Will probably see more NSW Cup then Massey.

Misi is a great kid and I think destined for things bigger than RM.
Things were going well for Wests at the Cabra 9s until their cover was blown,...... blown right away by that wild storm that is.

 

[rightleftin]

Misi Vaikeli played 10 games for Kingsgrove in 2015 and scored 1 try. The top try scorers with 5 each were Charmoon Tumupu (16 games) and Daniel Ascoli (17 games).
