Player Profiles

[smithy]

So it seems we now have the majority of the player profiles up for the top squad. Answers some questions about Vave and Hodges still being here. Still a few to come with Lussick and Tapau missing as well as Williame. Fonua-Blake is missing also, whether that is on purpose due to NRL registration as there has still has been no official announcement. Seems like it takes a while to get a few photos taken.

Interesting to note is the positions for each of the players. Seems like it may be a guide to positions each is playing. Dylan Walker is listed only as a five eighth, Nathan Green as a second Row, Fabian Goodall as a wing, Liam knight as a second row.

I thought Knight was playing prop in front of BJ and Starling?

Vave looks to have lost about 50kgs.

Brookvale2015?

I'm pretty sure I saw Isaac John in Narrabeen earlier today. He looks about Orfords height but about half his build...

He's six foot, and 90 kgs.

He's six foot, and 90 kgs.

Is that with two inch studs in?

Sure looked like him and had a new training shirt on. Can't be selling many of those so assume it was someone in the wider squad...

Vave looks to have lost about 50kgs.

He has lost weight, listed now at 117kg. Weights have been updated (in years past they never seemed to change), Starlo up from 106 to 110 and he does look bigger (think he put on size up top when injured last year)

Tom Wright in main squad

Yep. It's the top 34 players and not 25 as in the past. Seems like a strange number don't you think? Why didn't they just round it out to 35.

Perhaps they are waiting for clearance for Addin Fonua Blake from the NRL given he is with the squad. That would round it out nicely!

Williame has now gone up to give the even 35.

According to an article some months back, he came in at 134 kg at the start of last year. So he is evidently working hard!

 

[Mals]

Williame has now gone up to give the even 35.

Shame... maybe we pay him under a "win bonus" arrangement 😉

 

[ShakeySeaEagle]

Does anyone know what our top 25 squad actually is? e.g Willame, Santini are these guys in the 25 or just reggies?

 

[ShakeySeaEagle]

Is "Buck" Lavaka a winger? That's a tasty size combo if it doesn't come at the expense of speed.

Also the small dude I saw in Narrabeen yesterday wasn't Isaac John. I think it was Api...
