[Milky]

welcome to the club big boy

 

[swag_tiger]

looks like he plays very hard and wants to get the ball in his hands.

 

[supercoach]

Always like to see a highlight reel that includes plenty of defence. He looks very willing

Good luck Josh, and I notice you were born on remembrance day, lets hope you give us fans something to remember in the years to come

 

[Demps]

aim up lad

just what we need.

Would appear likely to make his Wests Tigers first grade debut sometime during 2016\. Can play prop/second row and a much better player than Matt Lodge.

 

[Tiger_Watto]

looks hungry… nice!

Matt Who? :laughing:

 

[batboy]

Mates a mad parra fan - fairly knowledgeable thru all grades and was filthy they let him go. Better 2nd rower I believe…
Stuck behind watbro, tepai, scott, Manu etc. there... Better than a few of our second rowers, much better

 

[Demps]

Liking what I'm hearing.
A mate of Cherrington & Peni's too.

 

[Goose]

I like him, Ive only ever seen him play Second row.

Id reckon he will come into calculations in the back half of the year.

Probably competing with Liovale for the next in line bench spot.

I was happy with this signing.

 

[Chadman_s_Ghost]

Looks to have decent foot speed with his size, which is promising.

And his defence looks solid.

Remember those highlights are for nyc, so it's very different to playing with the big boys. Lodge was a bit younger and had already played 20 odd first grade games, and this guys hardly been sighted - bit of a stretch to compare the two favourably in his way, especailly when Lodge has totally dominated lower grades in comparison.

Of course Lodge has a brain the size of a pea which was his downfall. Brains can certainly make up for a bit of talent though.

 

[Downtotigertown83]

Freak. Is he in cup now? Why cant we put him with the Khoury kid from the other post whose an international too and groom them for the next few seasons. Instead we prefer to sign forwards that are lazy or cause trouble.

The highlights are actually SG Ball.

Matt Lodge was as dominant as you can be in underage football, and as you say, almost the same age, on talent alone, as good as Josh is, you cant place him ahead of Ladge. Also as you say, Lodge has thrown it all away.

All that said, kid can play, hope he kicks on.

Check out photo 32 of the latest gallery update on the official wests tigers page. He's a tank.

i saw the guy at a training session at the start of pre season, he looked pretty skinny for a back rower. in the pics he looks to have really beefed up. i know a few parra fans who think he has the potential to play first grade, hope he makes the most of his chance here.
