Hopefully the Metcalf rumour works out.. I'd rather Boyd but I'll take anyone 1st grade standard.. believe Metcalf is comfortable on the left potentially also.. and given Atko/Reed play right, thats important... hoping the wording that he will only play '7 or nothing' is a media g-up, but he...
huge chance we go 0 and 3 from the 'Big 3' young forwards.. even though we went all in on his family too..
Hope we atleast keep the couchies.. if they want out... blow the place up.
NSW Cup Notes:
Was out all day so just some brief notes while catching up with the minis...
O'Neill back @7 is fantastic, side needs a proper 7 with Reed playing up a grade. Haele also back @ hooker.
0min: Error off the dropout and we go straight on attack.. Haele just launches himself like a...
he may be injured anyway, but man with holmes, fale, suli, feagai all likely out.. its gonna be last man standing.. guys like Lawson and Buchanan into the mix.. Tu had a shocker but there may not be a better option.. and u can be sure sides are just going to run at him all day after seeing how...
this is the only thing that rly matters out of this year.. its why ive been harping for months that the 2027 coach needs 6mths of clean air and optimism.. to get some of these guys to buy in and extend... worst case if we can get them to atleast hang on till january/february, not go signing...

Burton was named @ctr for his U21 debut (he is 17 btw) and I think thats his longterm position with his size, but its a vote of confidence for a kid this young to be named in the frontline (and god...
Agree, but we still need to get the right blokes in the right position and see if they can gel over weeks/months to come... at the very least we have blooded some players, all be it in a losing side.
these ongoing injuries make that very difficult.. feels like every 2nd week we need another...
gonna try and catch up on burtonwatch tonight, carmichael tbf was supposed to be closed to 1st grade, so he rly should be whacking them at U21 level.. so should Weatherall.
hope he stays healthy.. hes such a difference.. he just gets it done in attack and defence.. effort areas.. despite not having the huge frame that many other backrowers do.
Feel like every position has been played by 2 or 3 blokes already this year.. so tough to get any sort of consistency or...
Ive been wanting to give Tu more opportunity cause were stuck with him for 2027, but I think there is something not up to 1st grade between the ears.. its not ability.. its decision making.. but its not ok.. and my god they take advantage today.. not blaming all of the tries on him though.. make...
Its rly our issue, the 1-5 is diabolical and we basically dont have a backup ctr if we want to move Holmes to wing.. especially while Suli is out..
Gutho I assume would have preferred left ctr but took one for the team here.. he hasnt even trained there.. but the faster outside backs are a...
Still think Cook is one of our best players and the only one who creates.. hope we made the right call moving him on...
these injuries could sink us also (edit: cook is staying on).. liddle maybe back next week.. but hope its not srs cause we have no hooker depth.
