Good weekend with the three grades winning.

Especially impressive for the Flegg side. They had six players promoted to ISP and were missing a couple through injury, even debuting two 17 year olds in the game. I spoke to Nathan Cayless and he said they weren't expecting the Flegg side to do what they did against the Dragons side.
We were at anz early for the Flegg game. It was fantastic and the Flegg boys were outstanding, very vocal bunch. Great game and really enjoyable to watch. We hope to see more of these games prior to the main events.
How'd Chicken legs French go in 1st grade Mandy?
Didnt notice him out there, must have missed him lol
Who would have called that hey.....
He scored the first Wenty try from a report of the match
5 Gregory LELEISIUAO - Was great in 20s but still learning his trade
7 Dylan BROWN - Top half prospect
20 Oregon KAUFUSI - Will.be in the NRL very soon - a gun
21 Salesi FAINGA'A - size and strength - another one who will step up
19 Raymond STONE - good prospect but lacks size imo
25 Stefano UTOIKAMANU - 18 yo Taumalolo look alike. Destroyed QLD in the recent aged Origin. Super Prospect and the one to watch .
.
How close do you think Oregon is to getting a start ? Be great development for him to get a few 10 minute stints at end of both halves towards end of year .
Never heard of the Stefano kid . Have to google him
I remember watching the try from Stefano in the Under 18s Origin and he carried 5 defenders with him before shrugging them off to score.
Ray Stone is shortish in a forwards sense these days at 180cm tall but he's solid at 95kg and likely getting bigger.
Oregon is highly regarded but I don't think we'll see him in the NRL this season unless they can push through a request at the NRL as he's not Top 30.
Super, I have noted that Stone has played a reasonable number of games in the 9 spot earlier in the year and last year, when there was injuries in the top squad.
