The highlight reel on the Cows website looks very good, but it's all juniors.Anyone know much about Garrett Smith? Sounds like another good one the Cows let slip away
Highlights real looks promising.
I’m starting to like having depth. If Edrick lee etc decide they need their pay doubled after a game of origin it can be a lot easier to say no if we’ve got talent there. Even in negotiations with Saifiti, Klemmer etc it helps if we have other talent there.
As much as I like Lord Eldrick Lee he gets injured a tad too much to justify a lengthy reasonably coined deal. But hoping we can get another good year out of him. We seemed to be cursed when our better wingers get older, McManus, Uate...
We’ve got some good depth there with Toa, Hunt and Young coming through. Enari was also good on the wing.
Being called one of the best 18 yr old players in superleague isnt really being plucked out of nowhere . From his highlights he is big fast and mobile .All midgets though, except for Young. Edrick has the right physique for the kind of modern day winger you want to compete with the best teams, tall, strong, quick & loves working hard running the ball back. Will have to reserve judgement until I see him play, but Young looks maybe a touch too big. Unless he turns out to be some freak athlete that we've plucked out of nowhere, he might be better off in the centres.

Our 1 trial will be against Melbourne in Melbourne two weeks before the comp kicks off.
Pearce will be offered a 1 year extension.
Club is in no hurry to extend Mann, Lee, Crossland, Hoy, Watson or Hunt, but has already started talking to Best about an extension despite him having 2 more years to go.
