Heard a rumour Ben is getting a debut this weekend. Anyone got any info? Is it true? Who's dropping out if so?

all i know is jason saab put up on insta that ben was going to debut tomorrow, knowing des that could mean he sits on the bench for 79 minutes before getting on the field!

Fox Sports reporting it so it must be true 🤣🤣

I think Parker doubtful. So maybe Burbo to bench Suli to centre

Sounds like either Parker or Siro... hasn’t been any mail on who’s out from what I’ve seen.

Hmmmm not sure how I feel about Suli...... He's so rocks or diamonds...... Parker has been solid so hoping Siro isn't right just yet so Saddler gets a start. Burbo to the bench. Issue then is you have two centres on the bench 🤷

We haven’t seen Suli play in a team with Turbo yet... a full game anyway. He may pleasantly surprise

NRL 2021: Ben Trbojevic joins brothers Tom and Jake in Manly side​

The younger brother of Manly superstars Jake and Tom will finally make his first-grade debut.


A week after NRL fans got their first glimpse of Joseph Suaalii another much hyped debutant will take to the field this weekend.
Ben Trbojevic – the younger brother of Manly superstars Jake and Tom – will finally make his first grade debut after being called into the Sea Eagles side to play Newcastle on Sunday.

The 19-year-old is expected to start on the bench in place of Curtis Sironen who is not yet ready to make his comeback from injury.


Trbojevic has been close in recent weeks having acted as an 18th man. He is a back-rower/centre who is one centimetre shorter than Tom but weighs three more kilograms than his brother.

The Trbojevics will join the Burgess and Mata’utia brothers in the rare feat of having three siblings feature in the same game.

Like his brothers, Ben has been highly touted. He represented NSW under-16 and under-18 teams in recent seasons and moved into Manly’s top 30 squad this year.

Luke, Tom, George and Sam Burgess all played together for the Rabbitohs.

No no no no no!!! Please not lazboi to centre

 

[bob dylan]

Word is if he plays well Fittler will put him in Game 1.

If true (his debut, not the soo thing ) then a big congratulations to Ben, best of luck and all the best for a great day for his parents and friends (and brothers).

I would suggest Burbo is being viewed as a genuine back rower rather than a centre.

Jurbo, Turbo & Burbo

Wow what a day for the family

 

[Jethro]

Good Luck Burbo if true however, there is still nothing about it on seaeagles.com.au/news

Yeah but it’s on the internet so it is true

 

[The better Robbo]

Ben is gonna be a giant in the next couple years. He is young and raw but will be a genuine superstar in his own right in the next 2 years.

 

[hozza]

That’s awesome news!! Congratulations to Ben and what a huge treat for the family. Hope he has an absolute blinder
