I have watched the last couple of weeks in cup and just have the following observations. Im only going to comment on people who haven't played nrl and have potential to.
The score is currently 16-10 at haltime against the Warriors, which is an awesome effort. I wouldn't be surprised if the Warriors ran away with it in the 2nd half. They have only lost one game this year and we have a very weak team. Lussick and Hands the only top 30 players playing. Keir and Pryke the only dev players playing. Even Latu and Nanva are unavailable or rested.
Twidle is a huge threat with the ball. Everything good in attack usually stems from him. Definitely has nrl potential.
Sam. L is having a great season. Seems to have got his body right and is playing some good footy. He knows how to do the spectacular put down as well. I seriously think he deserves a dev contact or at the very least a full train and trial over the next pre season.
Pryke is getting better and better. Has developed some good passing and offloading skills. With a few more kgs on his frame he'd be well suited to the nrl.
Lokeni is getting a run on the edge and looks very strong. Would like him to get more time at this level.
Max Tupou has been the big surprise for me. Came back from injury last week and has come back like a house on fire. Unsure of his contact status but I think he has to be given an nrl pre season next year. He's a big mobile middle who has been running very hard.
Kayne Kalache will never play nrl I don't think but he has been so reliable for the team this year.
The one negative is Smalley. Gee he is lost in defence, both on the wing and at centre.
Keen to see how Neemia goes in this second half.

Yep he would be the perfect 14 too
Well he can cover numerous spots and once he gets NRL experience and beefs up he could play Lock. That is how he will make his way into NRL for us.
Twidle should be ready to sign for another club next year some time.
Hahaha ... Sadly, you're probably right.
Hang on, if Twidle is that good, should he not be the 5/8 this coming match with Dyllan suspended?
defensive issues
He is contracted to a Dev deal for next year
😂😂😂
Can almost guarantee it actually.
I tell you who Ryles should target and that's Donahue from the Dolphins
Tries his guts out and is as tough as nails.
When the rest of the forwards comes back from injury he won't have a starting position anymore so maybe worth a shot.
You've got to have vision to do that.
The Dolphins have just extended him till 2027.
