So Lenaz is big enough to play lock or back row and skilful enough to fill in at dummy half??? And he hits like a Mack truck in defence?? Seems the sort of player you’d like to hang on to hey??? Oh well you can’t keep them all at a development club :-(

Moses i see as a Tigers juniors. We didn't see him as a priority and he played sg ball for them. Id also count Mahoney as an eels junior for the same reason.
It doesn't matter if got them from NZ or the bush. If you bought them into yours system cause you saw potential they are your junior.
Mitch grew up In Carlingford, so that makes him a Parra Junior.

He went to Holly Cross School at Ryde which made him a Tigers footy junior.

Meanwhile everyone in the juniors thread was bitching about him in the last few weeks because he couldn’t stop dropping the ball.

When did he become the next SBW ?

Twal would be perfect for the Dogs.
Why Tigers would let him go to try and sign Keppie?

Anyhows two of our juniors we let go. Fans where mad. Now neither of their clubs want them. Guss would be smart to get Twal. He will stiffen up there defense

Moses was playing Matts with us before he went to the Tigers!

He only went there due to his family connection with the club.

he's and out and out Parra Junior.

I'd have Keppie before Twal but they're both first change middles at best.

Twal has the engine for a side who needs a defense worker. I think that's what Dogs need right now mostly.
Keppie hasn't on for mine but is only 25. Props generally play their best footy from 25- 29 I feel. Maybe on a cheap deal ok for us.

It would be sad for the game but also hilarious if rugby poached WONG. The Roosters may start to question who they recruit in the juniors and stay away from these prodigies. It would of been great to see Sualii in 3 yrs.

I’m just asking the question, I haven’t seen anything of him or the team. But he did win the Flegg player of the year so he must of shown something?

He did as lock. But isn't the narrative here that he apparently sees himself as a hooker but has Davis and Arthur ahead of him ? Moreso, a few have jumped on board with the nepotism sarcasm, even tho I bet they have hardly seen much of these grades.

If Lenaz is moving on and he is claiming that others are being favoured over him as hooker, then it was Jabob Davis who played maybe 8 NSW Cup games at hooker. Even at times when Lenaz was on the bench as a middle.

Well we got him back for his best years.
One junior who people don't talk about who was a terrific player. Michael Beautner. Never seems to get a mention.

Here is a podcast with Buettner on his career it was done in 2019.

But a good listen. I always enjoy listening to podcasts as you get more detail in a relaxed environment and you hear great stories.

I just think a bloke who can do both is very handy, he might see himself as purely a dummy half??? It’s not like a we have a heap of quality in the position at the club. Lussick is pretty average and Hands has been predominantly a half. I’m sure the club know what they are doing they knocked it out of the park this year.

Moses played junior footy in the Parra jnr league at All Saints Toongabbie, played Harold Matthews for Parramatta in junior reps. Uncle Ben then took him to Tigers and got him a place at Holy Cross school and into Tigers system at age 16.

Actually even Moses has said he’s a Parra junior, probably not a big deal but that’s how it panned out.
