We have the Junior Kangaroos, which is virtualy the same thing, only limited to promising young guys.
This year they will be playing PNG and will be captained by Greg Bird and have Newcastle boy Michael Ennis at hooker.
Other Newcastle boys to play for the junior Kangaroos in the past are Perry, Abraham, Newton, Quinn and now Ennis. The thing that strikes me about that is that they are all Valentine juniors, which shouldn't be surprizing because Valentine get all the best young guys in Newcastle. It is only late developers like the Gidley brothers etc who come from other clubs.
