Rookie of the year???

[Rovelli]

Jordan Rapana's 3 tries on debut & Sandows lifting the Rabbitohs out of Wooden Spoon territory. Best Rookies, imo.

Jordan Atkins got four in R1 against the Cows, what does that make him?

 

[Rovelli]

Sonny Fai if we make the 8.

Sandow if Souths closes the season out with a few more wins

 

[Raider_69]

Sandow has it so far, but if the raiders can win all their remaining games you'd think Marc Herbert might be in with some chance.

wouldnt complain if Sonny Fai got it either
Uate's an outstanding prospect but all he's done so far is catch and dive... even Atkins, Careny and Rapana have all done substancially more then him so far, Jamie Simpson, Coote and Luke Capwell aswell for that matter

Daine Laurie might be in for a show so to Wade Graham. For mine its Sandow at the moment with Fai and Graham not far off

 

[Jono078]

Uate catch and dive? You didnt watch our last game very much?

Chases a kick hard and tackled Talanoa into touch and got us a scrum.

Couple try saving tackles where he rushed in and stopped the opposition center.

Really nice kick return stepping in and out of players..

Bit more than catch and dive.

But as I said he'd have to show a fair bit in the next month to be a real chance.

This year there hasn't been a huge standout... but, does it really matter? It's only a niff-nuff award.

[Bobby Meldrum]

David Williams, Sandow, Daine Laurie, Sonny Fai, Tony Williams and Simpson.

:lol::lol::lol:

But,seriously..
Wade Graham.

 

[Cockadoodledoo]

Mate - is Henderson a rookie, or late bloomer?
He had a blinder against the Storm.
Great Hooker.

Ian Henderson came up through the grades at the Roosters. Played maybe 8-10 First Grade games before joining Bradford.

 

[Cockadoodledoo]

Henderson was also at the Eels, but not sure if he played FG

He did, he got knocked out one game after catching the kickoff... Game all over after 6 seconds..

 

[Calixte]

Fai at this stage...

 

[Monk]

Sandow or David Williams

my pick... Williams

 

[Yosh]

Yeah no major standouts, give it to one of the penrith young guns or even though Terry Campese isnt rookie he has to win smething thiis year...

 

[Johns Magic]

Sandow fo sho

 

[Jono078]

Chris Sandow
David Williams
Dine Laurie
Sonny Fai
Junior Sau

Top 5 in order IMO, just off the top of my head.

 

[mongoose]

Yeah no major standouts, give it to one of the penrith young guns or even though Terry Campese isnt rookie he has to win smething thiis year...

he will be dally m 5/8 of the year which will then launch his rep career.

David Williams. What is it? 10 try's or something in 12 games for a rookie?
I remember Falou getting massive accolades when he achieved that, yet Williams gets very minor attention (probably a good thing though). Too much notoriety, and Mundine will come knocking. Williams already has the beard, Mundine would only have to supply the turbin.

Justin Carney
David Williams
Chris Sandow

Folau did a fair bit more than score 10 times in 12 games... He was the top try scorer in his debut season and played every game (i think).

 

[Gort Nook]

Sam Westbrook, a 17 year old prop has signed with the broncos for next season. I assure you he will be rookie of the year for 2009.
