Tedesco would be on a pittance of a salary. If he isn't up to first grade just put him to NSW cup for a while. The other two … yeah.

Teddy has the potential to be in first grade but maybe needs some time in NSW cup to build some form.
Might be a good time to move Simona to fb & koro back on the wing.
I'm sure teddy will prove his worth in time.

Agree with that 100%. I hate to say it I don't think Tedesco is ready for the big time. The other youngsters you mentioned have shown more. I haven't seen any brilliance in Tedesco. Steady at best

Has it occurred to people that Tedesco is coming off a knee reco? double that with he did his knee is his very first game in first grade. If you don't take those things into account you have no idea,
this love fest for tedesco must stop.. yeah he had a knee injury, but he is running. its not causing him to slip over (honestly this is getting ridiculous) and its not causing him to have no ball playing ability. he's just not up to it at the moment. if you can't see that and keep making excuses for him (like the same ppl have for marshall over the years) you have no idea.
look at simona, look at nofu… they took the step up and handled it.
as for anasta and lawrence to ESL.. anasta yes... lawrence, i'd play him as a wide running 11 or 12... he can still add value and is decent in defence.

I rated moltzen as a half/five eight, never as a fullback.
I did think it was a smart move to let Moltzen open the season in the #1 because he had actually improved (not saying that he was great) and (correctly) thought tedesco needed more time to develop in lower grades - which he still does need.

no matter how bad teddy is going- he deserves the whole year in the #1.
he's trying and that's all you can ask from a 20 yo atm. nofo and simona havent exactly made any try saving tackles yet either.

Nofoaluma missed 4 tackles at least 2 of which lead directly to tries tonight other then one spectacular catch he was fairly poor tonight and tedesco was defiantly better then him. Tedesco ran hard, defended well, put hi self in good positions and backed up. I am looking forward to him being even better next year just like Lawrence will be as both will have a full offseason to get over their injuries and no Marshall ruining plays with horrible passing

i am completely unbiased on him, people just choose not to listen to the reasons and see it as a vendetta against him.
tedesco is young and small, came from SG Ball to 20's to NRL in a short amount of time. when i saw him in the game v cronulla at leichardt i thought he showed enormous potential… its why i wanted him to be given the right amount of time to recover and rediscover/develop his game in lower grades... he hasn't played enough football, he isnt ready. it isnt a biased view with any alterior motive, its an accurate analysis on his situation and lack of development (due to injuries and being rushed into the side).
he needs more time, its not a criticism of the guy as a person, he as a footy player needs to develop correctly and I don't think playing #1 in this side is helping him.
really, he should be playing #6 in NSW cup learning how to act as a ball player (a part of his game he needs to develop)

Teddy needs to wear footy boots with studs, looks like he has a pair of Dunlop volleys on out there

What did Tedesco do so wrong tonight ? I thought he was one of our best. saved a couple of tries..great defence…caught the high ball...no errors.
I am sure Tedesco would look a lot better playing behind a strong pack and good halves like Manlys but his stuck with the Tigers for now...Mick Potter is a smart man I am sure he will focus on fixing that up first.

I think he left his boots at home and found a pair of shannon mcdonnells old boots in the back of the sheds .
