Funnily enough Sam was my best mate through school since we were kids, in the same class at Macleans also

Hope he gets in and goes well.

 

[BeeeeeRad]

Small world lol. I think he will make it, from what I've heard from my mate he is doing well over there.

thanks girvie

and as you asked, where is peyroux?

 

[wayne challis]

Peyroux is trialling for a contract at the Gold Coast.

I think George Vuna has been cut, unless he is out injured. He does not feature in the player photos and has not played in any of the trials so far.

David Hala will be playing with the Broncos NYC in 2009

Galu Teo is not part of the Qld Reds squad. I think he is just playing in the local Brisbane rugby comp.

 

[Tiiger'zz Babyy]

Funnily enough Sam was my best mate through school since we were kids, in the same class at Macleans also

Hope he gets in and goes well.

Sam + Anthony + Issac + John

i know these guys also...

Meet up with them most weekends when i head over to Rockdale..
they are all doing very well indeed..

Crazy fuggers but!!:crazy:

11. Steve Azzi (Canterbury)
12. David Hala (Gold Coast)
13. Royce Hura (Parramatta)

In my opinion, the ones i have put in bold are very big losses.
Steve Azzi should be in the toyota cup squad after watching them on the weekend, Rocye Hura had an absolute blinder and Christ Thomas and Ratu Tagive have been two of the SG ball dogs best
Josh murray has been killing it for parra, but I think the roosters have enough depth int he halves for it not to concern that much, not taking anything away from him, he should be the NSW 18s halfback.

Brad Murray And Tom Symonds are both recovering from surgery, Brad is making his return this week. And George Vuna I think went back to New Zealand because he was getting into alot of mischief.

Dont forget, Martin Kennedy, Ryan Williamson and Jake Friend also are still eligible for the Toyota cup side, as well as Boyd Cordner

Rohan is born in 88' so hes too old for toyota cup

 

[lifesgood]

Rohan is born in 88' so hes too old for toyota cup

Oh sorry, Didnt know that, Thought he was still young enough..
Well then just push Sam Brunton Up hahaa

 

[Tiiger'zz Babyy]

gooo sammeeyyy!

 

[lifesgood]

these guys are struggling big time, and i dont know why!
The side i put in a while ago was a very strong side and yes i understand that their is injuries and ben jones and jake friend are playing first grade, these guys should not be strugglinh this much.

I think scott murray can pick alot better side then what they have been playing, they lack creativty in the halves, matt hands and tom symonds are both more lucks then anything, Tom Symonds I would love to see start at lock.
Sam brunton is another one who is out of position, he is not a hooker!

Luke towers i think has been injured and is their best option at fullback, Boyd strickland finally got dropped to the bench but in my opinion aint even good enough for a bench position! He is just so slow, its like he doesnt want to run!
where is brad murray? he is an awesome haflback five eight on his day
