young signings

[SeaEagleRock8]

Just caught the end of the toyota semi between the Raiders & Warriors, featuring 3 players who'll be with us next year. All did well, particularly Sao from what I saw.

 

[Mals]

Good to hear. Are any available to play on Friday night? 😉

 

[mozgrame]

Chee-kam looked like he did his shoulder. Hope he has a quick recovery. Very handy lad by the looks of him. Can put on a hit, and more importantly, take one too. Tough kid.

 

[EagleRock40]

Apart from 1 mistake early, I thought Hiku was pretty good having never seen the kid play before, and all 3 contributed heavily to both teams.

 

[MK Eagle]

Chee-kam came good & finished the game well.
Agree on the NZ front rower Sao - has footwork, size, offload & a huge engine - seems exceptional for his age.

 

[Jax24]

Yeah all three guys have alot of potential and talent. I said in another thread that we attained possibly 2 of the best Warriors U20s players. Also Chee-Kam has impressed me with his performances this year.

No Fa'oso and Mauro will play before Chee Kam and Sao - unless Kite is off to the Tigers. i think that both young forwards will taste first grade though. What's the word on Stromquist and Cunningham?

How long can Joe run around on one foot? Been a great soldier but getting injured.

 

[tookey]

Yes Joe has been running on one leg all year. Unfortunately old age is cathing up with him.

I would have JT in the forwards over Sao better defense. But i think Stromquist and Cunningham, if Robinson leaves would be the closest to first grade.

. . . What's the word on Stromquist and Cunningham?

The word is ... Stromquist is strong, and Cunningham is cunning.
