Gee this side is stacked in the outside backs department. A current backline of Jack Attard, Will Craig, Xavier Tauaifaiga, Max Taotua and Logan Brookes.
Glassie Glassie and Filipe Huahulu on the extended bench.
Jack Nicholas and Joseph Partch playing Sydney Shield.
Riley Oitmann playing Macarthur comp.
The thing is not one of those players is more than 6 feet tall. They're all undersized players and while occasionally you find one who can step up against bigger players, most won't kick on outside of fullback.

Where's our upcoming McLean, Bostock, Cobbo, Coates etc

Wouldn’t Hiahulu be at least 6 foot tall ?
Ryder Huth has a good tall, strong and athletic physique about him, but every time he comes in and has a good game he gets dropped for the next week for some reason ?
I agree Glassie Glassie continues tj shine and is looking like our best outside back prospect at the moment.
He might not be overly tall, but he has that strong Katoni Staggs build and aggression.

You are 100% right @balmain boy . We can match the mid-table teams with the traits they have but will never be an elite team without them.

Huahulu is one of few. Glassie has reasonable speed but has power, strength & skill.

We don't have any aerial specialists in any grades from memory except Tavana who lacks speed & strength. Huahulu has shown glimpses.

Oitmann has speed, acceleration & x-factor but is tiny.

At least our potential signing of Averillo is addressing our lack of speed in the club. The club needs to give Makasini some dedicated gymnastic & catching training to become an aerial threat if he is going to fulfil his potential in the NRL as a winger or centre.
