Player to Watch

[Ralphie]

With all the talk about Lussick leaving I thought I would point out that I have heard big things about young Alex Mammone in our U20's.

He is 19 years old and is a 193cm & 110kg prop who will be the next Brent Kite.

Play him in NSW cup then.

Too many big blokes not learning their craft by way of physical dominance at an early age.

Look at players like Ritson and O'Mealy compared with the thousand outcasts the Warrior production line will chew up and spit out. They are physically men against boys at Toyota cup level - and this only serves to harden the smaller blokes and prepare them for the big time.

Still I wouldn't mind having a word to Liki Liki's agent since he is rated behind Tahu, Naquiama, and Sau for a centre spot at the Knights - by the genius who told Matt Ballin and Billy Slater they weren't first graders.
