Young Gun You're Most Looking Forward To

Each and every year the NRL produces some new faces that most have never seen before.

Eventually some of these guys become household names, but the most exciting part is predicting which young guns will sink and which will swim.

For me I'm looking most forward to seeing Robert Jennings in red and green. I know he isn't a rookie technically, but at a new club and still only at 20 years of age, I think he can go under the young guns label.

From other clubs there's the likes of Te Maire Martin with a full season under his belt, Jacob Liddle at Wests, Johnny Tuivasa-Sheck at Easts and Brodie Croft at Melbourne.

On the sensible side of the discussion

Last years U20's Grand Final showed some real talent
I really look forward to seeing some of those youngsters from Penrith and the Roosters develop

Not exactly a rookie but I feel next year Moses could have a breakout year and make his stamp as one of the players to watch. Liddle is dominant in u20s but we'll wait and see how that converts into 1sts. Ballin staying fit will be huge for his developement

Only know of Martin from the other guys, still gutted we let him go I reckon he'll be a player to watch next year aswell

For Penrith I'm super keen to see how Cleary goes this year with TMM. Also apparently Dyl Edwards has been impressive in preseason.

Braidon Burns(who you also signed) looked much better than Jennings last year.

If he wasn't Michaels brother no one would have heard of him. Never stood up or lived up to the hype for me.

For Wests Liddle is the obvious one, mainly cause we know he'll get plenty of game time. Esan Marsters and JJ Feliese are 2 forwards who will probably get NRL games. I'd also love to see Taniela Paeska get a run at some stage. You won't miss him if he does.

That Taniela Paseka is a monster.

I'm not getting all hyped over R. Jennings. We have better options than him in my view.

This is his chance though to really lift if he wants it.
