Looks like bamblett has been called in to the blues side at 18 man with Rex falling out and possibly will be named to start come game day. We now have 4 players in the squads in Bamblett, Petrus, Ryda and Koina. Is this our best rookie class in a while?

Anyone know if this will be televised on kayo? Dave me the scrolling to find out :)
adverstised as Channel 9, Kayo & Fox
Don't we have some in the Queensland side too?
Koina is in the Qld team.
Our 2023 SG ball team won the comp and has had Talagi, Sanders, Arthur, Tuivita, Pryke, Guymer and Twiddle all make their nrl debut. That's a lot of players. However I actually think this 2026 SG ball group has more talent in them than the 2023 side even though this team didn't even make the GF. The talent and athleticism is plenty in this group. It's about developing them now.
EA, you have said how much you despise Bamblett being at 6. Do you feel, or fear, the club are trying to create him as one? I mean there is plenty of time for him to learn but as you said mainly his defensive reading and ball playing is an issue.
Other than that Koina, Talagi, Petrus, Popo, Nunn, Bloomfield will all at some point be apart of NRL.
You might as well add Bloomfield. He was selected on the wing however his school withdrew him from origin to focus on union which sucks. At least next year that won't be an issue as he will finish up with school. Just hope he picks league over union.
