OFFICIAL Jersey Flegg Cup

[BlackWhiteGold]

Thanks mate, good to know!

Here is the full team list now - https://www.weststigers.com.au/news/2026/03/11/wests-tigers--jersey-flegg-cup-round-2/

Bailey Smith & Sione Lolohea are both top-age Flegg recruits from the Rabbitohs.
Jeriko Talisau is also top-age from the Warriors who players hooker with utility value.

Our bottom-agers who have progressed from SG Ball last season are Logan Brookes, Xavier Tauaifaiga, Jack Nicholas, Archie Duncombe, Byronn Laupepa, Denzel S_M, Luani Luifua, Sonny E_M & Joseph Partch.

Lolohea must have impressed in the pre-season to keep Harry Delaney & Tuifua on the bench.

Last season Tuifua looked to be a good impact player coming off the bench with good size, aggression and power ball running.
He could be one capable of progressing and potentially taking over the role currently filled by Royce Hunt and Bunty Afoa in a couple of years time.

I'm also a fan. Really pleased he has appeared in the team list as we lack his style & profile throughout the grades.

Any idea where the halfback is from ?
I’ve never been overly impressed with Heith Pritchard, but the club seems to rate him and named to start the season at 6.

A lot will come down to the halves, what otherwise looks like a strong team looks very weak in the halves.
Pritchard has never looked anything other than average at best. Signing a reject from a poor Souths team (can't say I watched their matches to see his involvement directly to be fair to him) doesn't fill me with confidence.

Azzi and Isdale will no doubt be promoted in the very near future but this again shows the complete lack of recruitment and respect to keep positions on the field. We shouldn't be staying the season with such a poor roster. The dogs probably have 4 halfbacks who'd walk into our team.

It's a shame as the backs and pack look decent otherwise.

Our recruitment at all levels sucks. Only ever getting rejects that are unwanted elsewhere and we try to polish them up

Yep I have huge concerns over our recruitment. Would have to have the worst recruitment team in the comp right now

We don't even have a recruitment team.
There's only one person, for all grades, and they always seem to be on a rotation covering various roles.

And it shows.
