Second rowers 2023 - 2025

[Cliffycomeback]

These are the backrow options we had when Seibs and his recruitment team took control. This list is compiled from our top 30 to start the season only. Not juniors or reserve graders.

// Haumole Olakau'atu
// Ben Condon
// Samuela Fainu
// Kelma Tuilagi
// Karl Lawton
// Josh Schuster
// Ben Trbojevic
// Zac Fulton

Since Seibs took control he has punted

// Ben Condon
// Samuela Fainu
// Kelma Tuilagi
// Karl Lawton
// Josh Schuster (after extending and upgrading)
// Zac Fulton

Since Seibs took control he has added

// Corey Waddell

Now you can call me cynical BUT!

Sorry, I'm thinking second row options only. I'll change the title. Edge forwards not middles.

Yeah those two played a few positions

Condon, Fulton even Fainu none played many A grade games did they? Fulton was 1. Granted they all played some.

But we are talking Ressies edges than does Seibs list can then include:

Bullemor
Cheekam
Navale
Hart
Dunford
Matterson
Patalo.

That's it club have young blokes, below hopefully we see a few play A grade before the seasons done.

Top 30 start of season only. Bullemor, Navale and Patolo are middle forwards not edge forwards. And it's also not about how many games they played. It's about the fact we shipped out all our top squad second row options and added Waddell. It's not difficult to understand. This year we had two genuine edge forwards for the first twelve rounds and Waddell. Then we added Chee Kam.

It should be clear our recruitment strategy is a massive failure.
