Congratulations, you've just put the mock on him :laughing:
Check out the interview on WTV.
Funny - He is very nervous and doesn't answer the questions.
I'm glad he knows ho to play footy.

Definitely not a swipe at his ability but… at who's expense?
Fulton? Heighno? Ellis?
I don't think he'll replace either to be honest... not yet anyway

100% K.
He is 18 games old and thats off the Bench.
Coach Sheens has always stated that your not a true first grader until you have 50 games under you belt.
Injury can change anything, however as it is he will be a very strong option off the bench in 2011/12 and there is certainly no shame in that.

Wow I just read this news then. Good news! I have a good feeling about Dwyer. It's possible he could start in the second row with Fulton moving to the interchange because Dwyer can hit very hard in defense and Sheens might want that at the start of the game and Fulton's good defense would definately come in handy when our other players are starting to get tired. Either way is good though aslong as they are both in the 17.

Hold the phone…never thought I'd see that...Liam certain starter...wow
Barb Dwyer is still growing...I can see Sheens turing him into a PROP..especially given it will be his second season being flogged by Folkes...
GREAT Extention..**Western Suburb junior, Dwyer came through the Wests Tigers Cubs**

Fults is a genuine footballer - and they tend to get better with age - that is why I was more than happy to see him back! He just needed the maturity that comes with a year overseas - to improve as a player & person!
I personally don't believe he came back any bigger - but he has gotten physically stronger and has learnt how to use his frame better in both defence and attack!
I back Ayshford to keep improving in the same vein (& Blake already has some size and surprising strength)!
As fainty pointed out in another thread - Blake is a yet another genuine old-school footballer from our quality production line - not just another big & fast athlete playing League (who tend to get found out eventually)!

Sydney Roosters prop Jared Waerea-Hargreaves denies he's out to avenge Simon Dwyer's monster hit when he faces the Wests Tigers backrower in Saturday's NRL trial match.
The giant Kiwi was left seeing stars after Dwyer sent him crashing to the turf during an epic 100-minute finals clash last year, won by the Roosters 19-15.
Waerea-Hargreaves was forced to undergo scans to determine if he was fit enough to take part in the rest of the finals series, having been forced off the field late in the game.
However, the affable 22-year-old said he won't be singling out Dwyer for special attention, but certainly won't be taking a backward step from him either.
"I am just going to go out and do what is best for the team, the game is different now to last year, although it seems when we play the Tigers the games get bigger," Waerea-Hargreaves told AAP.
"It would be selfish of me to go out and do individual stuff, but if he (Dwyer) comes towards me then we will see what happens."
Rated as one of the best young forwards in the world, Waerea-Hargreaves missed the opening five rounds of last season after injuring his shoulder in training.
Twelve months on, and with a full pre-season behind him, the New Zealand international warned his rivals he will be even better in 2011.
"This time last year I had my arm in a sling and missed the first five or six rounds so it's just good to be ready for round one," he said.
"I didn't have any pre-season last year but this year I have, and I feel a lot fitter and a lot stronger as a result, I am also more experienced."
Roosters halfback Mitchell Pearce will play his first game on Saturday since the grand final defeat to St George Illawarra in October.
The NSW playmaker will be partnered in the halves by 21-year-old Mark Kheirallah with five-eighth Todd Carney still recovering from a groin operation.
Pearce said he was unsure if the Dally M Medallist would be fit for the season opener against bitter rivals South Sydney on March 11, but backed Kheirallah to be an able deputy.
"He played fullback in the `20s last year, I thought he played really well in the trial against the Bulldogs the other week," Pearce said.
"He is probably not an organising type, but very good with the ball and really fast, a bit like the guy who he is replacing.
"I think he will play really well, he has been really confident in training and if Toddy isn't right for round one, then there may be a spot for him."

Dwyer will put him to sleep.
Geoff Daniela would KO this guy, he's all show no go.
YA WEAK!
