NRL players in the Blacktown team?

[double hoops]

Kurt Dr Luis is back. Well may not have ever went away. Just disappeared for a while. Great to see.

30 - 0. Full time.

Can't wait for the match report.

When was the last time we had a reserve grade side that wins more than we lose.

When was the last time we had a reserve grade side that wins more than we lose.

Reserve grade premiers: 1954, 1960, 1969, 1973, 1988

They all won a few.

Cmon Blacktown we won every grade so far this week.

The teams with manly in the name won at least.

Ultimately the clubs approach to reserve grade has long been about development of key roles rather than overall team strength

The club would want a few players developed and not much care for the rest

That's just pathetic. What a joke this experiment is. Have they ever finished above bottom 4. Who can you pick for 1st grade after that sh*t. No wonder the first grade play like they know they'll never get dropped.

To answer the title of the post... No. There doesn't seem to be any NRL players in that Blacktown team today.

He went and got his PhD I see - that's good use of time away.

If this mob of Workers is not already on minimum wage they should be.
Get into a Union which will ensure you don't have to ply your trade in the rain.
Better still, play Union rather than league.

Yes, in the days when they actually had a bit of pride in the jersey, even though it was a reserve grade one.

What's minimum for a squad player, think it's 130k...better than having a 9 to 5 job..

Obviously Barrett doesn't coach this particular Canterbury team.

Here's the match report we had to have:

Blacktown Workers go down to Bulldogs at home

Blacktown Workers Sea Eagles suffered a 30-0 loss to the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs in round three of the NSW Cup at HE Laybutt Field, Blacktown, on Monday night.

I would love them to be known as 'Hogan's Heroes' (after their coach), but this is probably more appropriate:

Also - note who was in our team lists vs Bulldogs if you're tempted to put one of them in for our current NRL team:

I'm just annoyed that we're not getting pressure on first grade from our reserve grade. Half of those BWSE players have some sort of first grade pedigree or aspirations. A 30 to nil result, really, SMH.

As a club, they've:

Won 26 from 77 (including finals) with a win percentage of 33% overall
We are 0-2 this season, scoring 4 points (Davey), allowing 54 against

Since Des Hasler has been back, 1st grade was much better though:
Won 40 from 76 (including finals) with a win percentage of 52% overall
(for the record Brad Arthur and Paul Green have similar win / loss records)
OVERALL Des is at 57.2, Wayne Bennett 62, Craig Bellamy 70

Trent Barrett's record for us:
Won 29 from 73 (including finals) with a win percentage of 39% overall

Indeed!

Blacktown Workers team to play Raiders

Blacktown Workers Sea Eagles Coach Nathan Hogan has named his team to play the Canberra Raiders in round four of the NSW Cup competition.

[Ryan]

I think I see the issue here
Hence 1 win (by 1 point) and 4 losses in 5 games

Nathan Hogan:

The 40-year-old says he has already learnt plenty by working closely with the Manly Sea Eagles NRL Coaching Staff headed by the experienced Des Hasler.


“Des has been great. He has been really supportive of what we have been doing ever since I’ve come on board,’’ Hogan said.

“We are working hard in trying to bring the two teams together more and unify how we are going to play to ensure the transition between the two sides is seamless.”

“We have also been trying to work on synergies across other parts of the program too.

The moral of this story is Barrett is a reserve grade coach yeah
