Harold Matt's made second week of finals
SG Ball making GF (going undefeated in regular season)
2nd in Jersey flegg
Top 4 in NSW Cup
Looks like forwards and halves are deep while outside backs is thin
Our pack looks of the future great Sam Tuivati, Will Latu, Jeziah Fanu, Demascus Neemia, Tony Matale, Ryda Talagi.
Lorenzo Tailatana (SG ball player of the year), Twiddle, Hunt, Lincoln's Fletcher, Lachlan Cokknias.
Obviously not all of them will be stars but haven't seen this amount of talent in a while.
Hopefully 3-4 make debut next year.

Why isn't de stradis being pushed through? Sounds like the sort of player Jr would like. I heard 1 poster compare him to Eric grothe senior ball running wise.
Thanks ea
He made his cub debut last year. He will be pushed through next year into cup. Just hard to find a spot for him in the backrow when Carty, Latu, Keir, Guymer, Kelma all play backrow rn.
I am too young to know about about Grothe Snr. But Nikora is my current comparison.
PT are you a bit worried about Moey. He has gone backwards this year. Looks very slow too.
Hi EA ,
I rate moey but he is not playing well at moment . Maybe the changing of halves on a game by game basis is just putting doubt in his game . Dom Farrugia had a nrl pre season , played full year in Sg ball and was good without being great . I think we have a few centres /wingers coming through with the best imo being AJ - Johansson. Beautiful runner of the football will only get better next year.
Yep I think losing a pre-season due to injury would have definitely not helped Moey.
I do not rate Farrugia at all.
Yep AJ is good. Moala and Coby in HM are good too. However, from the half a game I saw from him, I think Sorovi will be the best of the lot. Shame his season didnt last long due to injury. But the half I saw from him was amazing.
EA i wish yourself and whoever else is really into the pathways to go through the list and give a sort of idea of who to look for in next 3 or so years. I know that can be hard but you can get an idea of some players. Like i think comfortably we can say Funa-Iuta and Talagi both play NRL at some point in their careers. Polley if he is that good will for sure as well make NRL.
Maybe even give a player comparison too. Like from look and sounds of Polley he seems like a Cam Murray type. When i watched Coinakis in Aus schoolboys he reminded me a lot of Blayke Brailey.
It's in the works already. Will focus on SG ball to Jersey Flegg.
HM I did the mid-season report and that just carrys through. So just refer to that
Just been busy with work and life.Hopefully done soon.
Athletes EA just tell me we are filtering athletes through our system.
I can teach football but I can't teach speed and athleticism.
Do we have anything in the Layban Halisima Vaimaga types
or the Nicholson Young Taimale types which Canberra and the Warriors have developed nicely just real power athletes that change games.
This is what Parra need to look at targeting in there pathways urgent athletes.
Or we could do what you have suggested for a while and look towards the pacific islands.
You gem LB lol we should be doing both but that's ok.I'm at a point where I'm not fussed where we look as long as we find them.
