General Jersey Flegg 2025

[Leon Black]

Our 13 been very good in a say so forward pack.

 

[Leon Black]

Jett with a peach of a short ball to Kite, 12 all. Must be running downhill second half.

 

[Leon Black]

Sio scores in the corner, off the back of another huge run from our 13, standout player along with Jett. 16-12, conversion unsuccessful.

Could be 25 to play, clock runs but multiple drinks breaks.

 

[Leon Black]

Now says 18-12, Jett must of nailed the conversion from the touchline, updated 5 mins after the try.

 

[Leon Black]

Silktails no.11 scores off a pinpoint cross field kick from the tallest halfback ever seen, no.11 could be a basketball centre as well, 18 all.

 

[Leon Black]

Silktails hooker has a 5 ride card at the Suva Racecourse this arvo. Literally 4 foot at best. Gives away a penalty and on report for a crusher, couldn’t be a high shot!

Hanson dummies to kick on tackle 5, great run puts winger over in the corner. Both players getting attention. 22-18, kick is…..missed. 12 to go, maybe more.

 

[Leon Black]

Durban loose carry, ref didn’t agree with his claim of being stripped.

Must be a language issue, some comical plays recalled from Silktails.

Knock on caused by great line speed from Durban, 5 metres out from our own try line.

 

[Leon Black]

Silktails getting loose with some high shots and carry on, finally pinger when easily could have been many tackles earlier.

Cama in again, Jett and Hanson link up, 17 holds up defence and saloon passage for Cama. First win of the season very close. Clock says 81.51 but I’d say 7 or so mins left.

26-18

 

[Leon Black]

Jett nails it this time, 28-18, great goal kicker

Is your feed any good?

Is your feed any good? My Bar Sports feed is very glitchy. Keep barely keep up with the play. Tough enough watching two teams with identical strips...

 

[Leon Black]

Yeah it had some issues, sounded like it was streamed in Oz from a club or pub, fulltime 28-18.

MOTM Jett just pipping our lock and Hanson. Not sure what coach said at halftime but they won second half 28-6.

Thanks @Leon Black for the updates - good to read through these when lacking time to re-watch the game.

I think the Flegg team will be the last development team to improve as the Pathways continue to build. Cup is there and thereabouts, Matts has been a success beyond expectations, SG Ball is a work in progress (but with promising sides) and then, as Matts and SG Ball boys filter back into local comps / through to Flegg, the Flegg side will continue to improve.

Flegg is, in essence, the reserve grade side for our NSW Cup team - all the good Flegg-aged players are playing Cup - which is the same as how the Aussie clubs approach Flegg (at least as I understand it).

Anyone at the ground able to tell me how #16 from the Sharks is going? Christchurch raised & pretty sure he went through St Thomas'

 

[Leon Black]

I tuned in for the second half again, just like last week, they did jersey swaps at halftime and ended up losing 28-22. The completion rate after the break was atrocious.

They’re a tough watch right now—you’ve got to let them make mistakes and grow. Still, I have some question marks around the coaching staff.

If you watch the youngest team that’s been successful, the contrast is clear—they’re far more structured and disciplined. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Mat’s coach, TJ, move up sooner rather than later.

Young Gordon Afoa stepped up from Mats last season, which was the silver lining. He looked good at lock. Anyone know if he is related to Bunty?
