Be easier for Fittler and Co to pronounce. :lol:

Sebastine is a ripping talent. Beautiful balance and agility. He's another ripping talent in a team full of stars. According to Fox commentators he has another season to rip in in this grade. Future first grader for sure.

Underrated with heaps of potential.

 

[Meth]

He has definitely caught my eye over the last several weeks- huge work rate, but no soft hit ups. Eager to watch him develop

 

[Rich102]

Isn't Gubb too old for U20's next year? Wonder where he will go?

Sebastine has been in some great form of late.
Most notably his durability and abilitiy to put his hand up of defense and attack.

Very unorthodox - never seen someobdy take some many 'rabbits' when playing lock.
Just needs a passing game etc to add to his game.

As good as he is - I rate Sosuia Tauikeaho from Otara just as good if not better.
Played lock for the Scorpions Senior team.
The complete player - already been signed up from Warriors - though he had plenty of other chasing him.

Other impressive Juniors in backrow - all u/18.

John Palavi & Donald Tony had a few games.
Will be better for the experience.
John is a little short like his brother but talented none the less.

Bruce Ligaliga - papatoetoe - 6' 3 ali lautiti / feleti mateo like player who has immense skill. Can geniunely play standoff.

Afa Veatupu - again a shorty but nuggety as like palavi and can hit a hole.

There was an article that he was trying to negotiate a deal elsewhere in the NRL for next year. He had a very good final.

John Palavi looks a very good player from the few times he's played. He's got the basics down-pat quite well.

I love posts like this though, every off season there's a list of these players identified and it gives a lot of hope.

I'm also glad in your team KTF you have Inu at halfback. I thought he was quite good earlier in the year when Johnson was out.

Siuatonga Likiliki, Mark Ioane, Nafe Seluini, Elijah Niko, Steve Rapira, Leeson Ah Mau have all either left or are leaving the club to play.

 

[Shaun Hewitt]

Sam Louisi is like big Ali! hope he sticks with us!
Other keepers have to be johnson, the fish and Feki.
I hope Tuimavavue can keep developing like he has been, he looks to be a right talent!

I heard a story that Inu's playing weight is 99kg, and early this year he had 3 or 4 weeks out of the team, got picked again, and weighed in at 115kg. That's his problem. Plenty of ability, a bit of Owen Craigie about him imo.
