Tepai Moeroa

[Jake the snake]

Just on Moeroa.... Special special player!!

 

[strider]

Yeah, but I really think he didn't crab that much this year. Norman on the other hand has taken the most infuriating player to support award away from Sandow, but not by much.

i hear ya .... norman frustrates me no end .... he gets hte ball and stops dead and even steps backwards to stop dead .... way to stiffle an attack :roll:

 

[pedge]

Edwards
Mau
Jnr Paulo
Would def get a start

As would semi

 

[I bleed blue & gold]

For an 18 year old, Tepai was enormous tonight. 13 runs and 47 tackles. Well done son.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

It's his physical ability that amazes me for someone so young.

He is def the player we need to keep for life.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

I predict he will be a country / city rep next year

It's disgraceful that an 18 yr old lead our forward pack again, this kid is bloody special though. Shame we can't find 3 or 4 more of him.

Being harsh on Edwards and Mannah. Kenny had 21 runs for 204m, that's fking outstanding. And Mannah had 15 runs for 135 which is hardly shabby either. Tepai was very good but he wasn't a lone hand

 

[I bleed blue & gold]

Bazal is right.

Kenny and Timmy were also good.

I was just highlighting how good Tepai was.

Add Mossop and Ma'u to the pack and watch them go.

JNR Paulo and Pauli will have another year under their belt...

Good times ahead!

Kenny was great in attack but had a shocker in defence. But Edwards has been a fantastic find for us this year.

I agree, brother. I think Edwards was in beast mode, and Mannah was outstanding, too.

 

[junior fan]

With Moeroa, Mannah and Edwards leading our pack and Manu and Peats back we will be a much better team. If jnr Paulo continues to develop and perhaps get Pauli in the middle as he doesn't have the minutes of an edge or the defence then we can build something special. Can't believe an 18 year old made near on 50 tackles!

Needs more Watmough.

Would you have Tepai or Edwards playing in the middle?
Moeroa seems to be a natural edge player.

I'd probably have Ma'u and Moeroa starting on the edges with Gower playing in the middle.
Edwards off the bench.

He has both size and speed to play up the middle or on the edges or even wider like a Hoffman.

I wouldn't restrict him, I'd put the no 13 on his back and let him use his natural ability to play based on how he is reading the game.

Not many players can do that and he probably cant at this stage but give him a few years and let him mature and see how he develops his instincts.

 

[hineyrulz]

Within 3 years he will play origin, he is just that good.

 

[Twizzle]

He's from the Cook Islands so I guess he qualifies for Qld

mate - its where you play at 16

pretty sure newington college is in queensland too :thumn

I think Kenny Edwards was outstanding last night. He has really impressed me since he has come back from his injury. I'd almost put him ahead Ma'u. Perhaps he is more suited to the left edge than the right also.

I'm guessing Newington College doesn't play Rugby League though...

I think the rule has been changed to where you were playing when you were 13 now.
