From the October 2017 Dev squad announcement.

Mikaele has come on, Smith ex Aus U18 FB hasn't. Gibbs is Gonski.

So, good on McIntyre for sticking it out.

2018 must have been a worry for this lot with Cleary's departure. Waiting for an opportunity for over 2 1/2 years is commendable.

There's mention of Seyfarth having a break out year in 2017, but I think they must cut n paste that each year.

Looks bigger than when I saw him last. Hope he goes well looks like he’s trained hard

Looks like a beast. Let's hope he tough enough.

The shaved head makes him look scarier to the opposition which is good

 

[Tcat]

lol A Beast..

Sorry, you obviously have to be Polynesian to be a beast. My bad.

 

[rihannafan1]

He'll be fine. I don't think anyone expects him to be anything but average, which is what the last guy on most benches is.

He's probably in the same space as Shaun Spence, Kyle Lovett and Chris McQueen. None of them were terrible but they were/are all undersized for the NRL. And anyone mentioning Seyfarth in the same breath...please. Alex is 21 and a lump of a lad. Give him two years.

 

[Harvey]

Hopefully a big offseason has seen him improve on his 51 missed tackles in 21 NSW cup games last year.

Cut these guys slack

Sam M
Seyfarth
Garner
Oliver etc

Chris McQueen is a unit dude ! He killed it whilst at the Tohs. He just injured his neck and hasn’t looked the same . But he is not undersized .

In the photo looks a bit like Curtis Siro and he has turned into a good backrower at Manly

The kid did well.
Very nice debut. Especially considering he played more minutes than he would have been expecting.

 

[Geo]

Thought he was pretty good made some important tackles..

Ran the ball with intent..

Well done young man..

 

[Bones]

Did enough to hold his spot for next week I think.

Defensively pretty strong.

 

[JC99]

Did really well. Played big minutes in his first game and was solid

 

[tigerbenji]

Good debut, played well & tackled everything that came @ him. Well done.

 

[hobbo1]

A lot Better than Seyfarth

 

[Guest]

Madge singled him out - did well for a kid making his FG debut and playing big minutes in the middle, only had the one Canterbury Cup game this season. He'll be there next week.

 

[WT2K]

Solid debut. Ran well. Defence solid.

Madge loves a hard worker and he’s definitely one of those

I had my doubts but I was impressed.
Good first up effort.
May be a keeper.
