                • Yea Bamblett has plenty of natural strength. He is taller than Twiddle. Bamblett is quiet skinny now. As Pou said, once he builds into his frame he will be quiet strong. 

            • Surely Bamblett is young enough to learn these things EA. He is 19 years old. I remember watching him last year and I didn't rate him at all. 12 months later he is twice the player. Who knows what sort of player he'll be at 21.

              If Blaize Talagi's defence is good enough for the NRL, there's hope for plenty of youngsters.

              • Yea given his age there is time to improve his game and mould him into a 6. He definitely has the talent. He was very highly rated at Panthers HM team in 2024. He also needs to pull his head in a bit because he has a very short temper like when he threw a punch last week (can't believe the souths players didn't get binned as well). 

                though just quickly, when Fletcher returns from injury, he will go into the halves with Kade which would push Bamblett to fullback anyway. So Bamblett will only have a few weeks at 6 anyway. 

              • Not sure how you didn't rate him last year. He was great in JF last year at 18 when he played fullback. He reminded me of Drinkwater with a lot he did last year 

        • Though there must be something there is they are playing him at 6.

          • I am quiet confident Bamblett will move to fullback when Fletcher returns. Moujali and Fletcher will probably be the halves. 

            • What about the 6 in reserve grade, Lui? He's eligible for Flegg as well.

              • True who knows actually. 

  • 1) Fingers crossed jack db starts with Walker off the bench, it works every time.

    2) the ref who called our game against the tigers learnt his lessons plus puts the 6 agains away
