Exclude me out of your icky fantasies* merkin.
I saw him at the ground before the Manly game. Speaking to Stagger.
Just a fan like us now or still the Junior Guru?
we could try Haas on the edge he has the speed and the fitness as well as decent offloading ability
Still with the club.

Nah, Hindy reckons he must be shit if he's not already in first grade.J’MAINE HOPGOOD
J’maine Hopgood already has six first-grade games under his belt but that number will only continue to grow if his performances in NSW Cup are anything to go by.
In fact, Western Sydney rivals Parramatta have reportedly taken notice and snapped up Hopgood, proving that while Penrith’s production line is unmatched, it can’t keep them all.
A tireless defender in the middle, Hopgood also has ball-playing skills that make him a similar style of player to Isaah Yeo, with the ability to dig into the line and pass.
“He’s a bit of an old-style footballer, tough as teeth,” Hopkins said.

“He’ll rip you through the middle and is as tough and physical as they come. He’s not an overly large body for a guy that plays in the middle but he plays way above his body weight. There’s much more NRL to come for J’maine.
“He would fit right at home in the old 1980s games where it was just rough and tumble as well as the modern game. He learns fast, has a good football IQ and ticks all those boxes.”
Hopgood has averaged over 100 metres and 35 tackles per game in NSW Cup this season.
In the NRL, Hopgood has primarily played off the bench, putting up 70 metres and making 20 tackles per game in limited minutes.

He played Flegg with Brendan Hands. Hands was No.7 and Hopgood was lock and captain.J’MAINE HOPGOOD
