A brilliant year.

Victor Radley is THE breakthrough player 2018 for mine. He's been on the radar but his sudden rise to prominence in an already quality side is commendable. More impact than Boyd Cordner at this time, for a little bloke.

That being said I hate the Roosters and hope he gets smashed to ribbons.

I think also Tommy Turbo has gone to another level this year, a shame his team hasn't gone with him.

Radley is rock solid.
But Lewis is the man.

What a guy.

Amazing boot on him.
Naturak footballer.
Great head of hair.
And looks like a super model.

x3 - Victory Radley and he is listed with the Chooks as a number 9, he goes alright in the back row and according to the Chook Pen website he is only 92 kgs .. love the name of his junior club .. Clovelly Crocodiles :slight_smile:

Ponga, Radley, Pangai-Junior, Isaako, Lewis…those guys have been outstanding. For our club, Marsters has really cemented himself and Thompson surprised the hell out of everyone.

I'd be interested to hear your "Supermodel 17" footballer team one day.

Dunno if there is enough to field a team but LL cool hair is definitely the captain

Viliame Kikau- knew after watching the World Cup there was no way he was headed back to ISP. Love. Love. Love him.
Ponga - His attitude in post match of Game 2 origin made me like him even more, plus his game performances seem to show that he just loves rugby league. Today’s generation of footy players’ ultimate dream is to wear the blue or maroon jersey. Where’s the passion for winning their club a premiership trophy? (Also I didn’t know Benji was his fave player growing up - Benji 2005 does not get many accolades in his influence on the current game)
Isaako - Not sure if it’s cos we’ve struggled with our own goalkickers, but seeing this guy kick so great under pressure in that round 3 match showed the makings of a great player imo.
Radley - that tackle on Taupau was riveting to watch.
One of our own, in Marsters. Absolutely loved him in the Denver test and it solidified to me, that he’s really gonna be superstar in the future. Though not consistent, he shows glimpses of how dominant he can be.

Other young players I love watching are Tommy Turbo and Brimson. Luai from Panthers and the young lad at Cowboys Clifford seem to be part of the next generation coming and look alright.

Good post.
Looking forward to reading more from you.
