Jesse Martin to Souths

[Clay]

Can’t keep em all, JWH and Gutho are great examples!

Would of preferred to keep him over the 13.
Won't be a popular opinion but blokes like 13 usually go soft once they start playing with men their own size or bigger.
Seen Bainbridge wasn't retained either.

 

[The Who]

I think its just like the Intrust Statewide comp.

There were reports that each Sydney club would 'adopt' a division/area in NSW and that there would be 16 teams in the Under 20s next season. I could never understand how this would work.
If it's like the Intrust Cup then do we play as Manly or some other entity? Do our Under 20s play before the First grade or before the Reserves?
Why hasn't all this been locked down yet?

Money

I posted this in the NRL billion dollar and broke Thread.
NRL can't finance tge NYC, so they asked the State Leagues to take over for a few years 😎

Whilst Greenturd is throwing NRL revenue at Scamand JT in shonky testimonials, the grassroots and pathways of league are dying 😡

Great news we've retained Anderson. I think this kid is first grade material like T. Wright. Can see both pushing for first grade spots next year.

You lose some and then you #nextweek the rest. Simple. Martin was a goer, but now he is gone, so he isnt going anywhere.

I liked Martin but he is a classic lock forward. Not sure where he would've fitted in with Jake making the 13 his own.. As others have said Olakatau was a game breaker for us and is still very young (18?) so plenty of improvement in him.
