14 teams, 26 rounds, yet they still slip 4 byes into each clubs season.

Once you get over 20 games in my experience most players are on the wane mentally. And kids are softer these days 😂😂😂😂😂

Good to see Kurt Falls getting a start at Norths.
He’ll be back at Lidcombe Oval for Rd2 after playing his other former club Penrith in Rd1.

NSW cup trial today with Newcastle.

Top picks were:
Murray
Attard
Andrews
Bunty in defence was strong but attack seemed flat
Haywood looks good!
Number 10 was a big boy keen to see if he plays flegg and cup this year

Other then that not many stand outs or potential

It was actually a good hitout by the boys. I just re-watched to look at structures & effort. It was 4 tries apiece with 10 to go. In the 2nd half, we played a number of our 2nd tier Cup players and moved players around a bit so the loss is no concern. Will do a wrap tomorrow with some interesting observations & opinions.

I wasn’t disappointed, lots of positives signs.
We have showed a bit of loyalty to a lot of players who have showed signs of talent coming through the grades and I think we could see it pay off with a few of them who might have breakout seasons.
I thought Bunty played well. Not the normal rampaging charges we expect from him, but he played with good energy and should be a great leader for our emerging middles when he is not playing NRL.
I’ve worked out the 10 was Harry Delaney, nothing overly special about him, but he was accelerating well with his ball carries and is generally a reliable defender.
I think we under rate Max Liles, he has more quality than what he gets credit and I hope he gets his fair share of opportunity in 2026.
Attard showed glimpses of his speed and class and I was also impressed with Logan Deininger despite a couple of uncharacteristic errors.
I’m happy to see Bailey Hodges is still at the club and Luke Jack is a hard one to gauge as he is definately on the small side for a forward, but no doubt he has a big engine and is all heart. He should be playing 13 / 9 not on an edge and I think he has more upside than Charlie Murray.
