Are you joking? It was a shocking pass. He shows potential but his defence needs a lot of work and if he can’t pass from left to right he needs to do a lot more practicing BUT at least he looked. I will say he made a nice break in the first half from dummy half and there were a couple of times...

Rizk is an exciting player and will have impact off the bench when the opposition starts to tire. The coach knows what he is doing. I’m sure as the season progresses he will find his way into the starting side. He is only 19 also.

I don't think too many are writing him off just yet. He has his chance in Cup to show what he has got - I'd love to see him do well that's for sure. There will be Flegg boys coming through in a number of positions as the season progresses so they will be looking to impress also. Players like...

Well I think that would be pretty silly. One week out from the comp, they should have a squad pretty much picked. The mayhem of different sides and combinations, you won’t see that with the NRL on Sunday. The same should be true with Jersey Flegg.

I was at the game - a bit hard as no programs and we had our first side which played the first half (with a number rested for a run on for first grade) and then a completely new second side. Not saying that the 2nd side was the possibles as I would have had Riszk in the first side and he played...

Those picked in the first 17 should give us a reasonable indication where they are at having trained together for a decent period of time. Hard to see the benefit of throwing everyone else in (effectively almost another 17), a hotchpotch of JF, some CC players & other randoms who haven’t played...

I'm wishing him the best. He sounds fairly popular as well. Speed helps and he looks the right build for a winger. Could be just what we need.

I agree. Pleased for Fitzgibbon and he looks pretty good. Hopefully Zac has benefitted from training with the squad. He does have ability. Would like to see Riszk, Felix Smith and Mavoni out of the younger group.

Agreed - I’m hearing from club officials there could be a few diamonds in the rough based on training stats since Nov 1. Training v game can be two different things but after COVID 19 it’s hard to tell what will transpire. Some of these kids missed 12 months of experience but have come back...

No team sheets. We put 2 teams on - one went better than the other whereas Manly pretty much kept same side. We rested several of our expected rising stars who will be in the squad - hence Riszk not playing. I think we let a few boys go after the game so squad is getting smaller. Should see a...

Yeah sorry. What I meant was our JF could struggle without Mavoni and Smith. On paper, the CC should be very strong.

The Jersey Flegg boys must be dreading lining Mavoni up in tackling practice each week. Doubt many would be able to stop him effectively. Whilst our CC side looks like it could be very strong, if Smith and Mavoni go up, we might struggle in the comp this year. I don’t really know much about the...

Madden looked good to me in 2019. Please throw in Smith and Mavoni from Jersey Flegg for next year - both weapons. Shame they couldn't have gotten CC experience last year which will hold a few back a bit maybe.

There's a good shot of Ryan Garner who had a good season this year with Ryde Eastwood.

I listened today to James Hooper who said on MMM that he was excited that the Tigers might be looking at Mansour as a package deal with Laurie. Sums his journalistic ability beautifully. We cannot be serious if it’s true unless Laurie is the next superstar - certainly taking on Mansour will put...

Do we have a CC squad yet?

Great post.

This is so true. I don't think the club could be so stupid as to sign Mansour on any terms. I've lost count of the young backs we have coming through but we are certainly starting to put a fair few roadblocks up. A 3 year or even 2 year contract would have these players looking elsewhere ASAP...

He needs to get rid of that ridicululous flop when he scores. I've always been suspect of those types. Haven't seen him tackle yet. Admit he does look to have a lot of talent.

70% not 50%! I think you might want to check those stats. Anyway, let’s hope he works out. Speed certainly helps.
