We haven't had the best luck with our Development players turning into quality NRL players, but I get a good feeling about Feledy and Kautoga making it and having an impact!

Absolutely, I am expecting Kautoga to be fast tracked, if we lose someone he'd be my first option to come into the side.

Feledy and Kautoga both look physically ready,both have the talent to back it from all accounts.
It’s up to our Club to make sure they are working on all the little things to make them FG ready.

This is it isn't it. Our development over the next year or two is vital for Benji's success.

Excuse my Tinfoil hat 🥴,But I’m still of the opinion that Benji is more or less head coach,Sheens is just a front to take the pressure off.By the time Benji “officially” takes over a lot of our gun juniors are playing regular first grade and excelling.

Does anyone know much about Brandon Mansfield.

I also wonder how Matamua will go next season. I can honestly see him taking that lock spot.

Mate KingRobbie has gratefully accepted the challenge to keep this thread active and up to date, if noone else knows I'm sure when he sees your post of Brandon Mansfield he'll respond 👍

Seen him in person looks tall, athletic second row type body. Coming back from a few bad injuries. Prob a couple of seasons away.

Good stuff.
Please god, give us some success for a change, we all deserve it surely.

That sounds word for word like the "Parramatta Prayer" and i hope it works better for us than it does to the losers who it's named after(They purchased it off North Sydney when they went under and just changed the title)

I believe Brandon Mansfield is a local junior from Campbelltown and I posted an article way back where he won an award/scholarship for the indigenous community. He is a second row forward from memory with plenty of talent.

Good hole-running back-rower.

He’s 21 now, so he’ll be playing NSW Cup next year, because he’s too old for Flegg.

You might remember he was the player who suffered a bad knee injury in the Manly NRL trial at the start of the year.
Played well in Flegg, coming back from the injury.

Campbelltown junior, went to St. Greg’s.

6’1”, 102 kg.

Only under general Anesthesic 🤪

Funny you should say that.
The only time I ever wake up feeling refreshed is after anaesthetic ... that can't be a good thing lol

 

[Bellend]

Brandon Mansfield is good young player with the potential to play first grade but it all rest on
him and his dedication.

Apparently, just like ck tiger's effectiveness of sleep rests on his medication.

As Bon Jovi would say .. "Gonna live while I'm alive, I'll sleep when I'm dead" ..

 

[balmain boy]

He's a powerful runner, had a lot of injuries. I remember watching his comeback game at Leichhardt against the Panthers i think it was, he was our man of the match, making inspiring runs out wide, making half breaks and offloading and leading the team on a great comeback that fell short to a very strong side.
