Geordie in the centres?

He should be in the 6, future first grader for sure. Played in the age group above me for my old footy team and went to my school.
 
Great looking front-row there. Redman is an Australian Schoolboys hooker & Ailaomai & Sims are up there with the best front-rowers in the comp. If the team had a couple of decent second-rowers like Zane or Cruise Wilson (who have both become ineligible) they could probably do well in the Finals.

They could possibly end up moving Sims to the back row eventually and maybe also bring Mason into the starting side. A back row of Sims, Mason and Cook look pretty good, I reckon. I also thought Mason had a good end to the year last year, and should be starting.

At the same time, our props may look a bit thin without Sims there though

Yeah plus there's a fair bit of talent to come out of the lower grades too, like Kurt Mann, he's been a superstar in the trials, should get some game time. Looking at the NYC team, we have a good halves pairing, great front-row, solid backline with some game-breakers in it & a quality lock. A bit of quality in the 2nd-row & bench spots could be big for the team. BTW whatever happened to Neenan Simpson? I understand he isn't with the Knights anymore but why? I thought he played well in 2010.
 
We seem a bit short of props.
It doesn't help that Shearer and Alchin are out, but Alchin shouldn't be out for long.
Rod Mason is a prop this year i'm told, which could be really funny if Rob Mason gets promoted after the SG Ball season.
The bookend props - Rod and Rob Mason - both tall, athletic, hard running props - one of them very black with an afro, one of them very blond and fair. Twins.

He'd be too old. He was a little hot and cold Preston Campbell.
 
Alicia could you please keep an eye out for the number 14 for panthers. He is a good mate of mine and name is Darcy Horgan, if you could at the end could you tell me how he plays. Thanks heaps if you can.
 
Will Smith scores off the scrumfeed 10m out, got around the centre with ease.

TR misses kick

Halftime

22-6

Our boys looking good, Penrith look abit off the pace.... It's so humid here!

Drinks breaks every 20 minutes.
 
Lets hope this good form from the NSW Cup & NYC continues on throughout the year & hopefully with the NRL team too! All grades looking very promising so far.
 
Scoreline is looking good. With some decent recruits, our lower grade sides will no doubt look to improve again.
Panthers probably rebuilding after Iosefa, Coote, Gordon, Graham etc all got promoted to first grade
 
It's the Knights at their best.

3 quick long range tries after half time. Two to Roberts, one to Api Perhwangi.

Cook is on fire.

32 to go.

38-6

Is that Michael Gordon you're talking about? He's 27.
 
Geordie Connelly over, Smith kicks it from the sideline.

44-6 with 25 to go

Still 20 to go
