Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

There is an article listing the Top U15s in Australia and many of them are WTs' players including the Onitonio Large 5/8, Ashton Large hooker, Alex Isdale half, Ali Karnib 5/8, Peter Taai second row, Heamasi Makasini centre, There is also a host of other young players - Conti, Kanaan, Lowandos in the juniors. A poster the other day advised the two St Josephs College wingers Malloy and Minto are also WTs.

I'm sure our scouts are out there trying to sign players like Faagutu from Brisbane who from all accounts is an X factor player. I'm not sure what more you want?

I want them to discover a couple of stars eg a Nanai ,Sualii like Nicco was discovered .
 
First graders not blokes who just went through puberty who might play origin in 10 years
Every player has to start somewhere including Munster, Moses and co. While having talent is very important, it is also the training, structures, environment and type of football played by teams through the grades imo that to a large extent determines the success or otherwise of players. The Panthers are a great example. It seems our club has and is working hard in these areas.

The Large brothers are outstanding prospects who play in important positions. Many of these youngsters are Campbelltown juniors in addition the Wests HM team. I read the Roosters were chasing the Large brothers.

This is great but when we see a real star in the making we must keep
How old are these brothers?

Comparing to a once in a lifetime batch of youngsters who went from star juniors to first graders nearly overnight is fraught with danger. Not too many examples of this happening in history. You also need a good first grade team to nurture them when they do make the massive leap.
 
Hoping tigers are in market for a full back, feels like Laurie has peaked imo. Might do the job for next year but we must be in the hunt still after missing latrell.
