Madge went to Souths 85 premiership reunion last night.
Really solid rugby league thing to do for the Broncos feeder.
Madge to Bennett- I’ve got a new gig at the Broncos; how you been?
Every player bar Jackson was there.
The problem will always be they're rare in Australia and they don't get a game at home.
Our most decorated left arm orthodox bowler- Jack Saunders 79 Test wickets from 14 Tests- played his last Test in 1908.
I’m not sure how to explain to you that club cricketers are part time or even less in a lot of cases and that he couldn’t get out of club cricket and over Swepson.
It seems easy to me.
Mate at least try- never talked up Swepson. But he’s the Qld spinner that’s just facts and Kuhnemam had to move to get a game.
Correct part time because he didn’t play a shield game for over 12 months. Need players playing.
Played this year for Tasmania and playing for Australia- who knew...
No Carter Gordon? I saw enough from him last year in four games to think he's going to play a part in 25. I liked him at centre he just read and anticipated well- came in and came out when he had too. He could be the signing of the year. He could be a perfect bench backline player.
Then...
Clearly the selectors said yes, they also said yes to Papallii and Chrichton that series.
With Radley Bellew only counted game one too and not game two because he said not sure you'll get picked for game two.
I think it's the opposite that's what worries me. Piakura and Howarth were the best two backrowers in their cohort in 2019. If Penrith was chasing them that would make sense in 2019.
Armstrong isn't Piakura or Howarth, he didn't make any Queensland side until U19 last year not a single rep...
I think having to play BRL for Beenleigh is a massive knock.- I would be shocked if Penrith didn't say you can come play Flegg and train with the NRL side and you'll be playing Cup not long after that.
It's much more appealing than BRL. I think he plays Cup anyway this year for Wynnum but last...
You can sign at NRL contract at 16- last year of school and then it's up to the club to put you into your top 30 or development deal.
Development deals are capped at 60k each and you can only have max six of them.
Before that you're on a scholarship, and you can be on as many of them as you...
I don't know an exact pecking order, but they clearly weren't worried enough to sign him up early. He was one of three Broncos forwards in the Queensland team last year and played nearly 80 minutes in his Cup debut at 19.
Allen has only managed 15 minutes and Bukowski 30 minutes in their Cup...
I wrote it on here on the 17th so it was done before then, but Recruitment has rosters done in advance, the Broncos would know the shape of their 30 and moving players up to development deals years in advance.
Kev's sacking would put a hold on going out and spending 1.1 million on a half back...
