Hail the Visconti

Flegg beat the Tigers today 30-4. Partly due to a magnificent display from starting prop Zack Visconti which earned him Man of the Match. What a performance he gave. He started with a bandaged right thigh and limped at times, but you would have sworn John Fearnly was on the park. Zack looks like Johnny and plays with the same toughness and endurance and scored a try under the posts in the 2nd stanza. He got a break finally 10 minutes from time...and within 3minutes he was back on the park.

We have another good one.

Earlier Ball won 31-6 and Matts were winners 26-4.

  • Nice. We are all desperately hoping these guys transition into good FG players.

    • I'm desperately hoping that if we do get guys that will be good first graders, that R&R can identify them and keep them.

  • It was the final round of Ball and Matt's, as well as the girls teams Tarsha Gale ( 1 loss) and Lisa Fiaola (undefeated) all 4 teams advancing to the Finals next week.

    • Badger, Blue Eel and Phil there's never any sureness that any junior will end up a decent 1st grader, as you know, but we have kids in the forwards particularly that you can be bullish about.

      Visconti...Steve Nunn...Ong...Ryda...Koina and Matts reps...Curtis Brown and Hayden Bell. To name a few.

      • In HM Bell, Capovilla and Seuseu are the main 3 to watch. Martin is good as well.

  • Visconti was enormous today. I know Flegg won but once some players are back and SG ball players get promoted, I expect more than half the team to change from todays line up.

    • From todays team I only expect Visconti, Miller, Beatie and Hudson to be in the 17 by the end of the year. Popo and Coinkakis didnt play today but I expect them to be in nsw cup to end the year anyway.

      • By the end of 2026:

        Obviously more injuries will happen which will see players get promoted and a ripple effect happening as their are plenty of other players that could play JF and do well such as:

        • Polley
        • Nauer
        • Bloomfield
        • Sorovi
        • Davis
        • Trey-Stewart
        • Ong
        • Naeur
        • Vella
        • Pritchard
        • Fanene
        • Lucien
        • Mcmenemy
        • Leigh
        • Vaivela

         

         

         

        • I reckon you might see Bloomfield get a run in Flegg at some point. Seemed to have gotten better with the move to Wing.

          • I think Bloomfield may still be in school so may have schoolboy footy
