what position does he play?

Six for three games, seven for nine.

Really suffered from the lack of consistency in the halves from the Broncos last year. Hope, Burns, Brimson and O'Hara- everyone got a run.

He only played the second half of the year but showed a bit of attacking spark at times. He started to settle in after a great year at Valleys in T'bar and Toowoomba in MM.

Not bad considering he can still play Under 18's.

Qld Under 18 at 6 before Origin two with Lam.

Would he be considered for the 7 or is he to far off ?

Halfback, I watched a few of the U20's games last year, he was dominant in all of them, but I've read several times that he struggles with consistency.

the previous muppet coach didnt play him early on cause o'hara was mooted as top squad and the next big thing, but burns is better than him and hopefully he is now further up the pecking order. the consistency will come with more game time and confidence.

I was surprised with our first year team, that they went so go it was a team of forwards.
This team has genuine speed and I must say I'm happy I bought a jersey now

no idea to he honest, a lot may depend on the young giys coming through or the 2 understudies like scarlett and murphy may get a crack.

i think scarlett is much better than murphy though.

Don't think they will go to the market?

Interesting to see big molo get a run in the 9s. He's a beast of a man, almost gone under the radar i'd say with all our other young forwards we have. Would be good to see him do some damage!

He was only on a training deal and was heading back to Toowoomba to play MM.

He was placed with Norths and was only brought up once that was finished. He got the player of the year for the second year in a row. Shared both years.

Still Norths' highest points scorer, made the final- smashed by Townsville (He still got two goals) and got player of the year, then moved up to NYC. That's not a bad year for a 17 year old.

It's hardly worked out badly, awards, finals and now a 9's spot in 12 months. A year ago he was scoring tries for Valleys in the finals.

Really don't like the idea of risking Milford, Boyd and McG on a exhibition tournament. Even putting McC in there is a tad risky
