Honestly people, how is all the talk today not about Hopgood. Everyone wants to focus on negatives from our trial yet i think Hopgood is 10 times more attention worthy. His stats yesterday were awesome while punching out 80 minutes. This guy is something special and personally, I'm more excited about his performance than dissapointed in anything from the trial.

He didn't look out of place in that indigenous side.He had some very nice touches and showed his versatility playing on an edge,potentially we've got a good one on our hands here.
All this kid needed was an opportunity Riff didn't give it too him. I'm sure glad we did.Potentially he could be a long term fixture on our side with leadership to boot.
PS it's how alot of 1ee roll some are just too damaged to hope for better.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. All NRL clubs should be plundering the Penrith NSW Cup team every year. So many quality players there that won't get immediate NRL opportunities at Penrith.
Your not wrong I actually like the idea with our guys we've bought in Hopgood and Momoisea they are both physically mature grown into there bodies aged 23 and 24 respectively.
Ive seen in the past we've thrown in guys like Moeroa and Taiganoa as examples to young and they both got bashed to buggery and never ever hit there potential.I think a big reason for that is that they weren't physically mature took a bashing to early and there bodies and mental state gave way.
Being mentally and physically mature is so important in a game that takes no prisoners.
