NSWRL Grand Finals

Congrats to Wenty winning Sydney Shield and nice to see my former coaching coordinator Keehan Diamond having a big game. And then a big congrats to former Eels coach Chris Hutchinson who completed a dominant year to win the Ron Massey Cup with Mounties. That's four grand finals in four years for Hutcho and now three Premierships.

  • Wyong looking too strong for Newcastle at this stage in NSW Cup. Would have been nice to see Clint Newton go out with a premiership.
    • Spoke too soon!
  • Ditto with Keehan. He's a relative of mine and a real good bloke. I do a bit of work with him in the schools program. An ex student of mine, Regan Rona, scored a try for Wenty. Well done boys.
    • Auto correct drives me crazy at times, especially with people's names!
    • Is that the same regan rona that was in our 2014 SG ball team?
  • Yes a bit scrappy this final but like to watch these games. Papalli...he's a monster on the wing. If the Knights stay composed they can win this one comfortably I think. Does anyone else think Mamo seems to be such a competitor he gets into some scraps a bit too much? And a couple of forwards in Newcastle that look ok. Do we think BA is there watching?
  • Yes it is.
  • We need reserve grade back. Not because of the standard, but because of damning statistics such as 50 different players being used by teams during the year in this grade. Many of those blokes used aren't contracted to the NRL. We need to extend the number of players that a club can contract to an NRL deal instead of NSW Cup teams relying on Park footballers during injury periods.
  • X 2 Sixties. There's a bit to be said for a 21 year old playing with an experienced guy like Newton for the Knights. It's also tougher football. And where do these guys go after NYC.....? They have to go to NSW cup or elsewhere.
    • You guys should check out the former NRL players enjoying a nice pay day in the Group 6 comp in my area. Fraser Masinamua was also playing with us at Narellan last year.

"Not a bad claim, only thing i say is Norths only made one more GF after their 1922 title. In 77 years they made 1 GF. No minor premierships either. Souths were in same boat. 1971 was last premiership before 2014. In that time of 43 years they made…"
