I too think Kinga may be headed down a grade. The kid is a former Jersey Flegg player of the year. I remember him because Wests used to have a real good rivalry with our gun junior side that Galloway, Simmons, Aitken, Williams etc came through. The kid was player of the year for the whole comp. He can play!

sounds good Ali, hope he can get himself together at sharks and play some good footy

Isaac is a very good signing, will put pressure on Kingston.

I still believ that Ryan Carr is the bolter in both the halves & hooker next year, i will go out on limb saying he wont be in the top 25 to start, but by round 15, will be in first grade

Captained almost all his sides from juniors up. Been captaining Wests Premier League for 2 (possibly 3) seasons now...at 20, 21 thats a huge achievement. He'll be great for us.

I won't write him off but strong word from the club is that Kinga hasn't got what Stuart is looking for which is why he has gone for De Gois after missing Gorrell.



I have the same mail. Also have mail that while the new team sees Simmons potential he's on thin ice aggression wise and will need to lift a few 100% to retain the spot.

Frenzy any idea on who would replace him!! Mitch brown maybe??

hmm, thats a god question actually Sharkies73. Also if he was dumped from fullback, would he revert to the wing, or play FB in PL?

anyone who thinks brown is better than simmons is delusional, maybe he will be better than him in a year or two, but he is way off the pace at the moment.

I always said Simmo had potential. He realised that potential in 3 or 4 games this year. The injury didn't help.

I think Brown has more potential. I'd pick Simmo on the wing.

Nope. No idea. I doubt it would be Brown at this stage though, unless he's filled, bulked up and added a few kilos.

Ricky's really only had Mini in the past and we all know the power fullback game Mini plays. When Shaun Foley was given a run it was pretty obvious that he was either told or naturally brought the ball back at lightspeed.

If we have anyone that can play the power game from the back and they can't get Homer angry I'd be looking to them. Maybe Cooper.

Speed & power from the back.
Cooper wont cut the speed.
Simmons unfortunately will possibly get a start.
My tip is Albert to have a crack early and succeed or get released.

What about Fraser Anderson.

Never played fullback but fast as lightning and huge...

I agree with you on that one, i think he would slot into fullback nicely.

When Mini went to fullback hadnt player there before, was a winger who struggled under the bomb, so Anderson maybe the answer

Anderson is seriously overated, how good would simmons have looked playing queensland cup.

I know he'd look pretty good to reefy playing qld cup, but then he'd only have kimmorely left to blame for any failure.

All I know is that Brisbane were dirty on losing him. That is a big tick for me.
