Pic from the DT today in the Haemasi Makasini story on making the Wallabies U18 squad. It's from about a month ago but begs the questions why these 5 specifically were organised for a pic in WT training gear. Here's hoping!

Squad up 👻😤

Squad up 👻😤

Exciting bunch. I know it's hard to compare years but I reckon our Harold Matts squad this season was better than our undefeated squad 2 years ago especially in the forwards.

Godinet, Taupau-Moors, Taai, Ashton Large, PJ French, Havea Jr ... and then our 2 elites in the backline in Makasini & O Large. Would have won the comp if Large didn't get injured 😉

 

[Kaito]

Yeah bro @BlackWhiteGold PJ French is a sleeper...
I reckon there is a good player in there tucked away
behind the massive frame & Campbelltown attitude

I knew 4/5 were training with firsts every now and again but I didn’t know Taai was getting reps too. he’s a classy footballer.

Schoolboys cup final about to kick-off on 9gem for those able to watch or record
Haywood, Taupau Moors, Laupepepa playing for patrician brothers

 

[Kaito]

Thx 4 the heads up

 

[balmain boy]

Blacktown with 2 knock ons and 4 penalties in the first 10 mins.
A very fiery game

 

[palms]

Haywood has some good shape in attack

 

[balmain boy]

A very scrappy game. Ref kind of losing control, could have easily been a few sin bins, i get keeping all the players on the field for a big match, but they have been warranted.
Haywood barely sighted. Only touched the ball a couple of times. Patrician spent most of the half deep in their own end. No real standouts from either side. Halangahu looks decent but he's not huge, not sure how he will go against men.
Palm beach have looked the better side, winning the forwards battle and backs are sharper.

 

[balmain boy]

This ref is atrocious.

Patrician really struggling. Their hooker and halfback are very poor today

 

[Kaito]

Hectic double cut out pass

Haywood's come into it in the 2nd half. A great break from dummy half making 30-40m out of his half. 5 mins later beautiful cut-out ball try assist to tie the game.

 

[balmain boy]

A quick play the ball from Laupepa and Haywood goes for a scoot on the last and a nice cutout ball puts Patrician in under the posts. Up 10-8 now

Absolutely. He's the only one making things happen for them

 

[Kaito]

Another try assist Haywood. Grabbed the
game by the scruff of the neck, really solid

 

[balmain boy]

Haywood absolutely killing it, another try assist out wide

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Haywood absolutely killing it, another try assist out wide

Lachlan who hahaha enter Jared Haywood!

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Lachlan who hahaha enter Jared Haywood!

And then just as quickly, PBC score through a hole between him & his centre.

 

[balmain boy]

This time Haywood at fault, rushes out of the line and creates a big gap for pbc to walk through. Pats up by 2
