About souths having more local juniors than other clubs

 

[natheel]

inu if hes being released will be to free up cap space for hayne who is out of pocked 200k in 3rd party deals.

dragons to get procter

probably re grant souths wont pay his whole wage and want penrith to subsidise some of it and gould holding out for full value

Eels have said the Hayne thing has been sorted

 

[umina panther]

Mansour is a fantastic player but he's one of the slowest backs in the comp

 

[natheel]

Mansour was only just out of under 20's when he left. He would get a spot in front of Tuquiri any bloddy day. Tuquiri is awful and should never play first grade again.

I think you will find Souths still have close to the highest number of local juniors in their club.

Sutton
Merritt
Champion
Reynolds
Walker

so 5 local juniors is top in the NRL? Woah

Eels local Juniors

Hayne
Morgan
Mannah
Lasalo
Loko
Junior Paulo
Sio
Tanginoa
Pitchard

Semi? Even though he was born in Fiji he never played for a junior club over there and debuted as an Under 20's for Eels.

About souths having more local juniors than other clubs

I just had a look and Souths have 8 local juniors in their 25 man squad. That's not a bad amount. Plus Turner and Keery were brought down as kids.

 

[natheel]

where?

read it on twitter man. Eels were tagged through mole (i know he's not the best source) but he has said a few times today to fans that the eels have it sorted

 

[BranVan3000]

Souths junior count is nothing great, actually down on where it was for the past few years

Ironic that when we had more juniors we were at the bottom of the ladder, but as soon as you bring in the professional approach success usually follows?

Need to take a leaf from the Roosters and Bulldogs' books, they've made the Grand Final combined 7 times in the last 14 years and are always active in the player market.

It's impossible to field a team of juniors and still be competitive, the talent available just isn't that deep and not diverse enough in positions. We've had a lot of great juniors come up in the hooker position, some in the halves, a couple in the backs but almost no quality juniors in the forwards for example. So you need to recruit

Maybe you should look at every other clubs local juniors before making such pronouncements.

Exactly what i'm saying there.

I couldn't blame them tbh.


There's always so much hype surrounding the next big thing. Clubs often through too much money out of fear of losing them.

 

[BunniesMan]

If it's true and if he goes whether they made a good or bad decision will only be known in 2 or 3 years.

 

[Fufu Andronez]

They will find the money. Tedesco is a tigers boy.

 

[851]

He is actually a wests boy,a local wests junior,like Noffo.
