Ive enjoyed the free bunnies coverage before, but I think its the right call.. need this BarTV thing to atleast break even or coverage probably wont exist in 12 months time.

Interested in how Hale, Blanch, Baruani go besides some of the names..

Apart from Stanley-Traill, which does the club have the highest hopes in? I know it's probably too early for a lot of them.

gah footy is cruel.. the kid you rated as the one to watch is out for the season before a ball is kicked..
I have subscribed to BarTV Sports now so will try to watch as many of our matches as I can at least from SG Ball up. Apparently you can have 3 devices per subscription which is good.

Hale who we chased
Sargent-Wilson hoping he steps up.
Tarrell Indich behind two edges from last year, he will force his way into the starting side.

How is the feed on that website? Good quality? Can't even get updates on the score for free.

Dragons are losing Harold Matts but seriously I think it goes something like this:
- If 8 or 9 from each Matts team step up to SG Ball, it's good.
- If 5 or 6 fro each SG Ball team step up to Flegg, it's good.
- If 5 or 6 from the Flegg team make it to NSW Cup, it's good.
- If 2 or 3 of them make it from NSW Cup to first grade for the Dragons, it's good.

Josais Ah Kee looks so classy compared to everyone else, he’s the best player on the field IMO

Seluki Halangahu also?

Not really, most of the team have been really sloppy today. Errors and missed tackles galore

Score is embarrassing now. Hopefully Steelers are much better. Either way, it's only U17s. The best school teams would flog the average Harold Matts team.

St George’s right centre is taking the piss today (not in a good way)

Early days but looks like the St George SG Ball team is crap this year. At least in comparison to Souffs. As expected. That is usually the case the year after a very successful team in the age limited competitions. Steelers will be the SG Ball team to watch this year.

Just dropping in my notes from Dragons HM/SG:
==========================
Dragons HM Notes (8-32 loss):
We are away with 2025 Junior league coverage.. but Dragons HM's has been a really tough watch.. Souths look so much more professional than us, their outside backs making crushing try saving tackles even on our forwards... held our 7 up over the line when he could have put it down anywhere.. desperation at U17 level.. and conversely they make it count with their footwork when they got opportunities.. lots and lots of errors on both sides too.. seems like a real mismatch of readiness for the age group.
16-8 to Souths currently at half time.. kinda got lucky on half time.. our fullback lost the ball, but picked it up and was able to score off the back of it... second half I didnt watch a whole lot tbh.. we lost 8-32, just frustrating.. winger goes over but put a foot into touch.. just errors at almost every key moment.. sooo frustrating.
==========================
Dragons SG Ball Notes (1st Half 12-24 down):
- Hale #3 is meant to be a prospect (very tall) but a tough start.. went around the neck and missed a tackle on his goal line, but #2 Nachar did a great job to clean up the centres miss and save a try. Later on he cleaned a guy up high again.. hes gotta bend his back or something.. hes not gonna last if he keeps doing that. Havent seen him in attack yet.
- Xavier Kirk (FBack) replacing the injured Campbell-Cook - Nippy little runner.. looks a bit like TPH... 1 dropped bomb so far, did the most obvious shepherd Id ever seen still cant fathom why he kept running.. dunno if hes our man..
- Baruani #5 - Massive guy looks like Dom Young, im sure I read a story about him coming here.. huge first charge but coughed it up.. belted in his 2nd 10 mins later... 3rd run he tried to put on a late swerve but they still belted him... got the size but hasnt worked out how to use it yet. Late note he took an epic aerial take to score late in the half.. very dom youngesque indeed lol.
- Futialo #10 is a big boy.. some big hits.. just need to see how he goes when tired. He went on to score our first try to get us back to 6-18, tucked his head down and wouldnt be stopped.
- Not sure who to blame, but 2 spinning tries through the middle early under the black dot.. huge gaps around Smythe #13 who I was shocked to see named @13, hes an out and out impact prop, he has slimmed down since last season tbf.. but he was born with a 'extremely curvy' frame.. rly confused how he has this jersey.. but also not 100% sure its his fault here.
- CST def a class above in his running game.. think maybe 1-2 errors.. 1 of which im at a loss to what the ref was calling it for.
2nd Half Notes (Final Score 12-58):
- Cooper Hale #3 fmd shirt grabbing defence again.. very uncool... those moments sink a team... hes a strong and fast looking boy.. he has the frame.. but went on to drop a ball over the line and throw a pass into touch with an open goal.. I dont think hes there next week... almost on his own has cost us any chance in the match. I assume this is the centre being discussed in this thread, but hes on the left?
- Gah another souths try off a Nachar/Kirk collision going for a bomb.. Nachar was there first and much higher.. but ultimately not sure whos communication it was.. feeling like blaming Kirk cause he doesnt seem to have his footy iq going at this stage of his career...
Ultimately this is a shadow of last years SG side, the pack obviously missing all the stars.. plus the lack of polish in the backline.. in particular missing TPH who was saving tries left right and centre.. and settings them up too.. could be a long year.. though souths seemed rly good in both grades also... and the ref gave us nothing all game either.

Thanks for the summary. Hope he isn't another Jackson Shereb or Josh Kerr.

its actually what I would say about a few of them.. " very raw ", the physical attributes are there, but just not ready for this standard of NRL... he went on to take a great catch later in the game.. his effort is good..
