Solid unit but you can see he can still trim up a bit and put on some lean muscle. Sounds like he's worked very hard to get to where he has though and sounds like he's committed to putting his best foot forward. Looks like the Tigers Toyota Cup squad won't lack for size up front once again next season.

The fullback (Jordan Kahu) looks very promising. There's some good youtube footage of one of their earlier games.

Moments after congratulating his players on their premiership victory, Lenton praised Wests Tigers for its dedication to the school.
>
“Wests Tigers have given Keebra Park tremendous support and that was long before the Titans were on the Gold Coast,’’ Lenton said. “The school was down and out in 2000 and was going nowhere with its rugby league program. I approached a few NRL clubs and nobody wanted to know me. Then Wests Tigers approached us. They stuck with us when we were only small.
>
“Wests Tigers came on board through Steve Lavers initially. Recruitment Manager Warren McDonnell and Tim Sheens have since been very supportive. Without Warren and Tim, I don’t know where the school’s rugby league program would be today. And without Wests Tigers, Keebra Park would not be celebrating this victory.”
As long as Lenton is there I think we are safe from the Coast…..they can have Palm Beach Currumbin......
Lenton is confident Murdoch can make it in the NRL. His barnstorming first half try in which he left five defenders behind him had Wests Tigers officials and supporters salivating.
>
“Ben Murdoch is going to be one of the best back-rowers in the game. He is one of the best young forwards I have ever seen,’’ Lenton said.
>
“His explosiveness and his speed off the mark is incredible. He has soft hands, good discipline and a fantastic attitude.
>
“I believe Ben can do phenomenal things in the game. He is going to be something special.”
Here is what his Coach thinks of Murdoch..........cant wait to see THAT try on Grand Final Day..........

I wouldn't count on Lio Vaiga being there next year mate. He went missing early this season for a reason.

Huh wasn't aware of that one…......I'm intriged
@tiger_one said:
Yeah very true. He looked damaging but I just finished watching the Arrive Alive final and I think he made 5 runs for the entire game. But imagine what a weapon he can be with some targeted training.
