Wests lost 14 to 12. Will be no chance of finals now.

So appears to be a top 6? Last placed Bears and then a bye - I think you’re ruling them out prematurely.

Not much to get excited about in that Balmain team. Conti has a good boot on for a 16 year old, but didn't look like a future first grader today. His brother looked better in SG Ball.
He didn’t but as you say, he’s 16. Luke Brooks supposedly looked like a future Kangaroo at 16. He’s barely started learning to play the game seriously.

Not writing him off. Just expected him to have that look of class about him, like the Souths 5/8. Now that's a kid we should target. If his body develops I definitely see NRL in him. He stripped the Tigers defence with nearly every touch.

Highest we can get to will be 10 points now. Knights and Steelers will go to 10 today after wins to round out the Top 6. Sharks will be 7th on 9 points. I saw that Sharks play Steelers in Rd 9 and Knights have a decent draw home. Would be extremely unlikely to get in from here.

Sadly you are correct.
I was holding some hope until I realised they hadn’t yet given Penrith two points for their bye.
The Wests boys still have the incentive to
leap frog Balmain 👍

Conti has been identified as a v/good young player, It is exciting for Balmain and WTs we have a player of his talent driving the team. Thanks for your update and BB's.

NSW Cup only have a Top 5 I am pretty sure (it was last year anyway). At least that draw is fair for them terms of playing every team rather evenly and getting the top teams sorted.
For Harold Matthews and SG Ball, it is luck of the draw many times, as you can't afford to drop more than 2 maybe 3 games in the 9 regular rounds. Top 8 would definitely be better.

Any thoughts on how this team will go?
Not sure at all mate, don’t know as much about the Balmain side of things.

Nswrl. Com had Balmain matt's.playing at Concord. Oval
One of the Pathways officials posted on Twitter that it’s been moved to Cronulla.
Don’t think NSWRL has updated the website yet.

Seemingly 3 Waratahs u15s players on here, Lewadromodromo and Sorovi are two of them I believe. Hopefully we can develop and keep these players unlike Jorgensen. Azzi also one to look out for.
Balmain getting pumped by Cronulla so far. 0-16 after 20 minutes.
