. . . APART FROM ONE CITY AND ONE COUNTRY NRL TEAMS THE ANSWER IS . . . .

THE MIGHTY WESTS TIGERS !!!!


There are 6.5 Wests Magpies Juniors playing in this team to take on the Eels and 3 Balmain Juniors.

Congratulations to both clubs.

No other metropolitan club in the NRL can match that. Not even the Penny Panfers !

(P.S. The .5 is Fitzy !!! I am claiming him as a Maggie !!

Really hope that Roman Abramovich can crack the first grade side.
They were also saying on the radio on Sunday that they were bringing some other Russian kid, Stolichnaya or someone like that to the club.

I can think of one other team to match it.

1. Hornby (Junior)
2. Brett Morris (Junior)
6. Mark Gasnier (Junior)
4. Matt Cooper (Junior)
5. Josh Morris (Junior)
6. Richie Williams
7. Matthew Head
8. Justin Poore (Junior)
9. Simon Woolford
10. Jason Ryles (Junior)
11. Ashton Sims (Junior)
12. Ben Creagh (Junior)
13. Dean Young (Junior)

The fact that their junior base is probably ten times the size of any other club in the NRL doesn't matter :D

Parra's junior system is the best, the club consistently gets high ranking if not the pennant in the Club Championship, and always have their mits on one of the lower grade premierships be it SG Ball, HM, Flegg or PL.

Despite all that the most consistent side in the comp since 2003 (Storm) is a side that has next to no junior base, yet comes up with new Talent every year

Penriths juniors last year wont he SG Ball, Harold Matthews and Jersey Flegg Premierships.
This year, they made the Grand Finals in Harold Matthews and SG Ball, but lost. And prior to the game, one of those teams was undefeated. They look like a great chance at the Jersey Flegg title.

And our juniors coming through won us a first grade premiership in 2003.

We've found a few solid first graders in Michael Jennings, Geoff Daniella, Junior Moors and Tim Grant from our junior teams aswell.

Juniors are a myth.

I'd rather win the comp with 13 imports than run mid-table with 13 local juniors...
