He is so fast I don’t think anyone catching him if he gets away and is a great finishing
he has the attributes.. speed, height, can jump, can dive for a put down.. if he can do his hitups in 1st grade.. and not make many errors 'and' not get injured too often.. he could potentially be a longterm winger.. oh yes and make his tackles lol.. there is a bit too it.. but looking good so far.

The complaint last year iirc was a bit like his brother, passes going down, doing some crazy kind of moments in defence, maybe errors in key moments.. but I just have not seen that this year.. tbf though I guess I havent seen the defensive of things.. like havent studied him.. he was often playing outside of makeshift centres also, esp in cup.

Williams struggling to return has rly opened up opportunity for any young winger..... Saifiti I had in front of Toby but he hasnt been able to get those errors out of his game thus far.. he has To'o vibes big time with his power and speed but means nothing if u keep coughing up the pill.

Has a line definitely been drawn through Williams' name?

not at all - i think he will be back for preseason if not later this year.
That's good news. Shouldn't forget about Bucky either. Though I was a bit disappointed in his game this season. I expected significant improvement from last year but didn't happen. There is also Lyric. Definitely need at least 1, hopefully 2 possibly 3 of:
  • Buchanan
  • Heidke
  • Rumble
  • Saifiti
  • Williams
  • Lyric
  • Burton
  • Kirk
to play a lot of NRL next year if we are to be among the top teams. I know Burton will only be 18. You would think he might get a game in the NRL at some stage but to be a regular is a big ask. Then again, he would hardly be the first 18 year-old playing NRL. Williams and Heidke would be my picks if they can play a few games straight without getting injured or whatever is wrong with Williams.

I do think he has little errors in him he thinks he can run around them still and runs sideways which he needs to put his foot down and run straight and hard.. He also does have handling errors in him as well But that will all hopefully improve next year he is just lightening.

He's exceeded my expectations. Hope he brings this form next year too. The banners might be making a comeback in a big way once we start winning...
Used to love the massive jersey that would come out on the hill at Kogarah would cover 1/4 of the hill, maybe im over exaggerating, but it was a great sight from the stand watching it come out on a Sunday afternoon..

Yep, was great. Hopefully we see a packed hill for next year & beyond. Some of the older fans returning would be good too, see a few different generations.

Just catching up with Jakes signing after being off grid for a week.

This is a big turnaround,10days ago this wasn't even close.

Credit to Ando
Credit to Watto on getting TPAs to get our external signings over the line.
Credit to Deano too for selling a vision.

Big cedit to all our pathways players who are backing the club, themselves and each other to turn us into premiership contenders.
