Daniel O'Donnell named in South Sydney NSW Cup squad. Not sure if it is the same Daniel O'Donnell that was in our SG Ball Squad and son of David (Pathways Manager) but interesting if it is.

Clickbait headline - this is NRLW

Hopoate on the move​

Yet another member of rugby league's famous Hopoate family is set to make her name in the game next season.

Liesl Hopoate has quit Manly and signed with the Illawarra Steelers in the Tarsha Gale Cup for 2025.

An Australian Secondary School representative this year, 17-year-old Liesl was in hot demand for next season and Manly aren't happy at losing the promising local junior.

The daughter of famous bad boy John Hopate and younger sister of Albert, Lehi and Will, Liesl is a talented utility who has set her sights on playing in the NRLW.

^This is the cost of us not investing in an NRLW side

Indeed both Ivan and Jason married sisters of Josh Stuart. Who ever said League in incestuous.

With the Junior Reps comp due to start in 3 weeks, the Harold Matts and SG Ball teams have trials this Saturday vs North Sydney Bears at Narrabeen. I believe its a 11:15am and 1pm kick off for those interested.

The wet weather over the past few days has meant a change of venue, Norths now hosting the game. Just waiting on new venue, will post once known.

Any update on trial results, standout players, teams? Man are we in the dark compared to a lot of clubs re junior squads.

Nope, apparently the less me know the better apparently.
Maybe they are worried about Smoking Joe doing his analysis of the squad 🙂
