Knock-On Effect NSW Cup Team List: Round 10

[The_Patriot]

Big win great odds on the magpies won a stack.
Our future is very bright some great young players in that team even with the players pulled out due to this nonsense Covid bubble.

**>
Sione Hopoate is an absolute gun. Sign him as soon as possible. Weapon.**

He sure is.

His only mistake is going to the Roosters, buried on the depth chart but hes better than a few wingers running around in 1sts

 

[oldschooltiger]

Lets hope these young blokes can step up first grade.

 

[Demps]

Their other back, Whyte? I think it was.
He looked good too.

 

[bathursttiger1]

The one that we should be looking at signing is Ben Gardiner.

 

[Devon Head]

I thought Tuilagi and Simpkins were real stand outs and ZDC and Taipari both had outstanding games. Few of the outside backs looked good too.

 

[Blocker1963]

Like everything about Dillon, great ball runner and competitive, young Ogden looks a real prospect, that Mavoni is a big boy and loves contact.

 

[old_man_tiger]

Absolutely love watching this team.
I hope our first grade pack is on borrowed time.

I'd only keep Twal, Stefano, Mikaele (on recent form only), Ofa and LL. I'd have at least 3 of them on the bench.

That leaves 3 spots (assuming 5 starters and 3 benchies). I'd live to see Blore, Tuilagi and LL as the backrow. I'd give LL 60 minutes at lock with a the second hooker to cover lock either side of half time.

If only it were supercoach

Just clarifying my earlier mention of Bears backs that looked to have promise- it was Tony Satini (centre) and also Hopoate (wing). Their 7, Josh Ralph, made a few errors but had a decent skill set and some pace, threw a pass very nicely (upbringing in Rugby I’d say)- definitely one to watch as he develops.

 

[TheDaBoss]

How good was Dias tho

He loved taking those big dirty hitups at full speed

He is gonna be put on his back 1 day doing it 😂😂

 

[jrtiger]

as long as we don't rush our prospects because our first grade team is horrendous, then the future is far brighter than it has looked for a long time. Ogden, Tuilagi, Simpkins, Mavoni, Taipari and Kei are all future first grade regulars. Coupled with Stefano, Amone, Mikaele, Laurie, Simpkin, Blore and Doueihi and we have a future top 4 side within the next 2-3 years.

Tony Satini has been good for years through NSW Cup.
He's been at Manly, Raiders, Penrith and now the bears, all nsw Cup.

says something when a player has been playing NSW Cup for a number of years but cannot make the cut for 1st grade....Darren Nicholls is 1 player who was a standout in lower grades but looked average in 1st grade....some players just cannot make the adjustment. Docker-Clay is a perfect example. Not saying a bad player just not an NRL player.

 

[mikey]

Have to admit I don't watch their games regularly but I was impressed with many of those mentioned - Simpkin Tuilaga etc.
I was also impressed with the way Docker-Clay led them around and the ranga in 20 - Regan Hughes. Neither of them seem to get mentioned much theat I've noticed - any reason?

Oh man I'm gutted I missed the game. Was too tired to stay awake. Saw the Hoffman try then passed out. Will have to find a replay.

This team gets me excited for the future.

Cody Walker, Damien Cook and Ben Hunt were all late boomers in reserve grade I believe. None of them made their NRL debuts until about age 25-26

and Docker-Clay is none of the above. The guy has been at a different club for the past 8 years. He was ordinary in Super League. Players can shine in lower grades but that is their limit. Docker-Clay is a good reserve grade player at best hence why he does not have a top 30 contract and nor should he.

I deleted my post because I was unaware hunt actually debuted for Brisbane at a young age and was in and out of the team

Agree docker clay probably fits more the Billy Walters type utility mould more so than the players I mentioned above

Looking forward to watching him play tonight. I have a feeling it could be a good one for him. He should feel settled now.

I think he will take them on tonight.
