Shawn Blore #235

I wouldn't expect to see him lace the boots on in FG this season coming back off a knee reco, but the circumstances of the current environment means that for players like Shawn as as well Jacob L, they can really have plenty of time to get their knees right.

Yeah they can take their rehab slowly and get stronger than ever which is a big benefit

‘Russell Packer almost knocked me out’ good to hear the big fella is out whacking people but hopefully he makes sure not to hurt any of our guys 😂

Seems like a smart mature kid.

100%! I'm pretty excited about this signing
 
I have a good feeling about this signing and I know nothing about him. His interview really shows how important Madge is for our club going forward. Madge will attract so much more talent to our club than Cleary or JT ever would. You can see it in his eyes, he will bleed for Madge (and obviously WTs).

Yeah it’s crazy to think that people didn’t want Madge because apparently players don’t like him. It’s clear to see how much the guys like him and how much of an impact he has on our new recruits

Has anyone seen Blore and Tommy Talau in the same room?

I hadn't seen him play, although can recall hearing his name a couple of years ago. Check out the Junior Kangaroos game someone posted on Page 1 or 2. I was fairly impressed with the impact he had on that game albeit 3 years ago and prior to injuries. Good signing imo.

There is a lot talk around saying that this kid will make his NRL debut with us this season .. !! A big, rangy mobile lock .. !! If he hits the line with the aggression he shows in the highlights video clip on here .. he's gonna be very handy back rower for us .. !!

Who’s talking about it? It wouldn’t surprise me, if he impresses enough at training he could definitely earn a spot on the bench to play lock, it’s our weakest position at the moment I feel.

The Panthers were expecting him to make his debut in 2019, before he did his ACL. He did go from SGBall to NSW cup in the one year in 2018.

He'll debut this year.

If he does well enough I’m sure he could. Sounds like they’re taking his recovery slowly so maybe it’ll be in the second half of the season

Big fella looks good in the jersey

That is a huge hit - the spiel says it was on Stefano Utoikamanu but I'm sure its Newcastle so can't be Stefano.

No way it’s Stefano he’s been at eels since he got out of high school which wasn’t that long ago

There were 2 hits in two different videos - it should be there but ill share that one. You are correct that one was on a Newcastle player.

Yea thats right - when you do a bit of digging on Blore its amazing that Penrith let him go. The kid has been an exemplary leader throughout his career there. Maybe doesn't fit the panthers wonderful culture that has blossomed under Ivan. Quite a coup for WT.

He’s a premiership winning captain for them in SG ball and he seems like a natural leader. Madge mentioned his leadership qualities being one of the reasons he signed him, a quality pickup for us hopefully. Building for the future

Wow that one is even better - the first one the guy was blindsided. That one Stefano hit the ball at speed was stopped dead in his tracks - i felt that just watching.
