General NSW Cup 2024

I guess that could be one approach.
Another approach would be-
Lets play our best players in each position to progress finals games beyond week one.

Yeah, that would be nice for finals.

I just noticed that Taufua came from my old school - SBHS. A random place for a league player, it was all rugby, and sexually frustrated white fellas when I was there. Most league players in zone would head to Linwood HS instead, the NRL players I went to primary with certainly did.

Acceptable bias.
I like Rewa players -thats where I m from and if they went to De La Salle Mangere thats another

They haven’t really had anyone else to play at halfback. For all the comments on Roache he has been serviceable. Strong defender and his kicking hasn’t actually been too bad.

It’s funny because the Panthers did pretty much the same thing with Soni Luke. It aids their development and gives you more options.

The Panthers today just had a very good defensive system and were able to put gun players like Laurie at 6

So that's it? 4v5 loser is out? Or is it old system of top two losers get a life?

Interestingly 4 of the names consistently thrown up for more first grade struggled for impact yesterday. Though when a team only completes 17 sets for the match it can be hard to stand out.

TT, Bunty, Ale, and MGT had a combined 0 tackle busts between them.

On the other side Daine Laurie had 10 by himself.

Halasima was the only forward to run 100m (with 100m on the dot), and 56 of those had to come from post contact.

The Panthers ability to slow down the play the ball was very noticeable

Thanks for articulating what I couldn`t. I saw it, couldn`t say it....17 set completions, but no lack of enthusiasm mainly lack of composure with the ball.

Newtown wins Premiership number nine

The Newtown Jets clung on to a six-point lead under intense pressure from North Sydney Bears to win their ninth NSW Cup title.

Sounds like a good game. Niwhai Puru player of the game. Unsigned for next year being let go by sharks. His brother Hohepa Puru also still unsigned at the raiders and in the nsw cup team of the year alongside Laban. Think both would be worth a look

I did not see the game, but I noticed in the stats that Nathaniel Roach was opposing the new signing Healey. They came on at the same time and played the same mins.

Roache is a fantastic footy player. He always should have been a 200 game+ first grader. Unfortunately he played 4 games this year and 48 games since 2015.

Poster child for resilience and determination.
