"to me our top 5 juniors that we have that haven't played nrl yet is Lorenzo (20), Petrus (19), Koina (19), Seuseu (16) and Popo (20). Popo hasn't played much this year due to injury but last years form puts him on this list for me. Could argue the…"

"If it was possible to do why haven't other rubbish teams done so? It sounds simple in theory but it just isn't and what it will take to get Yeo and Cleary here would destroy our cap. Added to that Yeo is 33 next year, how long til he declines?"
"Pryke is the 7th player from the 2023 SG ball winning team to make their NRL debut. Alamadine and Vaivea were the wingers in that team and they are in nsw cup. TBH i dont either are NRL quality. Lynn and De Stradis are playing Qcup.

"We have good juniors coming through for sure. The next wave starting with Lorenzo should start playing more NRL from next year. Then Petrus, Koina, Popo and others should follow"

"That has to be the most scariest thing to happen, but could pivot so much in growth of our younger guys. Everything happens for a reason. "
"These are players we need, they are culture driven players. I'll sign watson as well, add Tago to our side as well. Winners and Heart thats what this club needs to be built on. If im Ryles ill go all in to sign Yeo or Cleary, you've got to do it for…"
"Smith is playing injured and we don't have anybody in cup to give him a rest"
"Can't see us win this, in order to win they need to play simple basic footy with a bit of defence. But we aren't willing to grind games down like we did in 2019-22. Ryles coaching is making these boys play to chaotic, when everyone should know what…"

This man "THE CROW" is my all time fav EEL. When I played rep league as a youngster I tried to mould my gam and goal kicking around him
Very classy player and man 👏🏻👏🏻👊😎
Theres the carlo kiss of death right there.
Mick, please be safe in the next few days/weeks.
😆😆😆 far out lol
Bit overrated though, wouldnt want him kicking a goal to save your life.
Wouldnt want him coaching to save your life either
i was just throwing out a few crumbs HKF, looking for a nibble
Nice one Garry, good to see you got out ok, rumoured to be a few bodies buried under the Gerringong.
Your opionion mate. To be honest It was mentioned by the rep coach back in 84 when I played school rep footy that I played a bit similar to the crow. My all time fav and always will be
There is a reason he is the first "Champion" of Parramatta. Played in all of our Grand Final wins. One of the all time greats and worthy of Immortal status. I laugh at anyone who knocks him as a goal kicker. He held the all time ARL/NRL point scoring record for years kicking leather balls from sand mounds. More importantly, a champion human being. Great photo Garry.
Also needs to be remembered he didn't start playing NSWRL until he was 26 so his total points scored could have been higher if he started earlier.
