Team list Tuesday - Pre-Season Challenge vs Knights Friday 14 Feb 25 at 6pm

I imagine worse case he is on extended bench if fit?

You would have to think so Bro - he couldn't possible be behind Slammin Sam Loizou in the pecking order?

Maybe he hasn't shown much in training... I can only go off from what I have seen of him in Flegg and Cup and he's a player that excites you when he gets the ball. He reminds me of Papenhuyzen with a little more size.

Plus he's a Redheaded Kiwi, whats not to love?

 

[Gazzamatta]

Ive seen Big Sam do some terrific things in the lower grades. I think he scored 4 or 5 trys in one game I recall. He wouldn't be any slower than Penisini and has a great build for an outside back. I know nothing of the kid but he appears confidence might be lacking. He also had more than his share of injurys.
If Ryles could rebuild this kid into an NRL player it would be a fantastic thing to witness.
Let's go Big Sam.

 

[Obscene Assassin]

Going to be big games for Penisini and Miller-Stephen both returning after 12 month ACL injuries. Not to forget that the last game Penisini played he was knocked unconscious in the opening minutes of his NSW cup debut. Hope he spends the full game on the field

I hope we can win

Will set us up nicely to win the pre season challenge cup trials trophy...

 

[Twizzle]

Stronger tram than I thought it would be, keen to see some footy.

It's turned into Teancum List Tuesday...

Maybe only 6-7 genuine first choice top 17 names in the list of 28... Iongi, Brown Ofahengaue, Hands, Tuilagi, Guymer, Cartwright? Looking forward to seeing how a few other young, returning or roughie prospects shape up.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Disappointed Ethyn Martin didn’t at least get a spot on the reserves

Maybe he's being rested so he can play in the top 17 next week?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Only turned 22 less than 2 months ago.
If he is to make it in the NRL, would need to show something this season.

Loizou and Martin both turn 23 this year. Same as Samrani.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Pou?

He's right. Loizou, Samrani and Martin are all turning 23 and have a single NRL appearance between them. It's not a good sign.
