General NSW Cup 2024

[W.W.O.L]

Hoping its just youth and many with grow some disciplined play ...leave the showboating ... to the win

Ye we didn’t have the NRL experience players like they did with Wakeham etc not making excuses and there were some dumb moments but didn’t have old heads to reign the young guns. Some positives will come of it. Really liked Harry, effort player

Assuming Zyon Maiu’u plays NRL, who's the next Prop in line for Cup?
I see Gavet & Vaivai are playing Fox Memorial after being used sporadically in Cup last season. Their experience could help the young side

fuck TSS looks cool.
bald head, slug mustache and tape round the head on some decades past.


a can of beer and ciggie at half time for sure.
so good.

Bit of Martin Bella about him! …. For those who have been younger longer

 

[Falcon]

It is a bit worrying how much joy they're having in the middle. That being said, our backline is where the experience is. The average age of our starting pack today must be like 20

We have been found out this season with an over reliance of youth in the forwards. Need 2 /3 guys who have a few years on the odometer in this grade.

 

[Cces]

Has Michael Sio hung up the boots? Been around forever but is still 30

Genuine Question. Who coaches NSW team and how much do they talk to FG coaches. You would think they would do very similar things and play similar style. That way when there are injuries players fit right in. Just look at Panthers. Schineder looks like he plays in that team all the time.

And apparently webby is all over that and they are meant to play the same, it's just that the cup team can't do that.

They do everything as one squad. Every coaching review and talk that the FG side get, is attended by the the NSW cup side. They train together. Quite right about the young guys not being able to simply pick up the instruction in the same way the FG players can.

I'm sorry but this is incorrect. Many NSW Cup members have day jobs

I hope someone has a word in Halasima's ear re his antics on the weekend. Certainly a way to get noticed for all the wrong reasons. I know he's young and a tlent but that was diabolical, especially the head slam.

Was he charged at all?

Just going off what I read bro that all Webster talks include the NSW cup. Yeah they won't be in everything together, they do a lot of opposed session work in the evenings etc eh.

Still a few Me Teds in the younger grades. Magnificent athletes but top two inches lacking.

Good to see Tobias Crosby named on the bench this week with Kayliss Fatialofa not named in cup or 21s must be injured.
Durbin at lock.
Take away Going and that's a Flegg aged forward pack no1 over 21
Young 9 looks slick for a guy who stated the year in SG ball, Captained 21s now starting NSW cup

He must be highly rated. His debut in NSW Cup snuck under the radar last season when he played in the playoff match vs the Rabbitohs. That might have even been before he had a SG Ball appearance (due to an injury earlier in the season).

 

[francis]

have they named the nsw cup team ?

 

[WarriorsForever]

have they named the nsw cup team ?

Yes, Pompey is named to start with Toby Crosby being promoted from Flegg. Definitely looks like Zyon Maiu’u will debut.

 

[John Nick]

Yes, Pompey is named to start with Toby Crosby being promoted from Flegg. Definitely looks like Zyon Maiu’u will debut.

Looking forward to seeing him.
Hopefully he can curb his enthusiasm and do good.
We certainly need him

I see they have names Zyon Maiu’u in the NSW cup team too so it remains a little ambiguous. Personally I am hoping that Zyon Maiu’u gets his debut as he is a forward and will bring something different to the bench compared with Ale, Laban and CHT.

It's an nrl debut, this is what it's all about, how can you not be up for a big one! I belive this will Kickstart his season as it's not been his best.
