Who care whether he was 12 years or 12 months old when he lost the obvious fact remains that it is clear that the wests juniors are not getting the support they need from the wests tigers to ensure these guys stay magpies and then wests tigers.
Harsh, MM. What were WT supposed to do when his family up and left for Qld? Get a grip, there's only so much a club can do in regards to children and the decisions made by their parents.
See that's where you're wrong Suzie. Sheens and Humphreys should be roaming the streets of Minto and Airds looking for for sale signs and talking people out of moving out of the area. Especially if they have kids or thinking of having kids. In fact the club should be out there encouraging parents to have more kids. I can almost see Humphreys in front of a banner reading "Do it for the Tigers".
12 months old… I don't know whether to laugh or not... What support do you want MM? A nappy changing service? Fair dinkum...

Of course, Yoss. Thanks for clearing that up :wink: I should have remembered it is all Tim's fault too! *forehead slap*

Dont Forget Beau Ryan, John Morris, Daniel Fitzhenry and Tim Moltzen - They re all to blame as well :smiley:
However back on track -
When I was a real estate agent several years ago, I sold a house to the family of Mickey, Lopini, and Lolea Paea. Can I just say, three of the nicest young guys I have ever met.
Mickey was the youngest of the three brothers - 18 at the time - end of 2004 (Lopini Played for the roosters until recently, and Lolea the eldest had a short stint at the gold coast before going off and playing Japenese Rugby) and had the most promise, however they all initially started out as Roosters Juniors….
All three boys Played for the Minto Cobras! Should have been picked up by the Tigers for sure!!
Can't believe ALL THREE of them were missed!
We had major problems back them for front rowers and second rowers, so these three would have been a godsend!

Lelea Paea was pretty ordinary, Micky goes alright, Lopini is the pick of them in my opinion, we should've picked him up for sure.
If anyone is to blame it seems like the people in charge of retention down at the Minto Cobras. They seem to have an NRL's team worth of talent pass through the joint!

Its a nursery of Pacific Islanders and should be looked after, most clubs would kill for the amount of promising juniors we have and lost, and the good thing about it is, they are both back and forwards and all of them are nice and tall as well. What do you think??? are they better backs or forwards, are the forwards to lazy????
