OFFICIAL Blake Mozer re-signs

[NSW stables]

Mozer will play 80 minutes.

A bit ambitious for a rookie who only started putting some full games in MM cup this year. Even Grant is only starting to put 80 minutes together in the nrl.

Mozer is several years away from 80mins in nrl.

Mozer looks fit and developed well for his age. With one off season and a year of training with the top squad he should be ready in 24' for solid minutes.

 

[Fitzy]

Mozer will play 80 minutes.

Yeah when he has proven himself at NRL level. For mine unless you earn the starting spot fully you work your way into the team as a hooker from the 14.

Hopefully they lock up Mariner before the wolves come

This is an interesting one for me. He looks like he could be anything, reminds me a LOT of Hodges though to be fair BUT I wonder what his pathway will be.

If Herbie kills it once he tries out at fullback, Cobbo then probably tracks to be a centre and with Staggs as well, I am not sure where Mariner fits in. If Herbie fails at fullback, then Cobbo likely gets the gig and then of course, either Herbie stays and Mariner is blocked or Herbie goes and Mariner's pathway is there.

I am not complaining and I hope the kid is willing to wait, develop and see because this is a nice position to be in again as a club where we can not properly develop these kids and then worry about it when the time comes.

Can always start on the wing.

I just hop he either shaves that mustache or grows a beatd because he has the look of that brad pitt character from the "12 monkeys" movie.

 

[Big Del]

he can go head to head with Smith.

Who is Smith ?

 

[McHunt]

I do feel for turps. He flew off the blocks but just was never the same after he broke his leg. He's not a natural athlete but worked Dam hard for us. Seems like a top guy too. I re watched Billy play against manly, he was outstanding and I think the current paix/billy combo works pretty well! They will only continue to improve as well.

Injured. He played 55 minutes for Seagulls v Jets. 56-4 drubbing. 2 try assists, 32 tackles, 0 missed. Hasn't played since.

For those wondering, Harry Grant was 20 when he debuted for the Storm, and 22 in his breakout year for the Tigers. Blake is two years away from 20. He's still a baby in hooker years.

Who is Smith ?

Ryley Smith the hooker that made the Australian team last season and kept Mozer on the bench. He's already playing Flegg for Penrith this year.

Yep, by the time he is actually a regular first grader he'll be on the open market, the real key signing will be extending him before Nov 2024 if he actually goes well in first grade but it does prevent a Walsh situation where he gets poached a few months before he's ready for NRL.

Grant played 42 ISC games for the Falcons in 2018 and 2019 and two NRL games in those two years.

C. Smith was 18 and played 28 ISC games, he played two NRL games at 18 and then 2003 was his first full year at 19.

Mozer has a long way to go.

Yeah this one isn't the key it will be the next one when he might have played two years of ISC in 23 and 24 and a handful of NRL games and impressed.

Grant played those two years in 18 and 19 at the Falcons, was just unreal and then extended with the Storm at the end of 19 until 22.

That's going to be the key to get a deal like that done if the next two years go well.

Yeah, it could be Dearden 2.0 if he's rushed into FG. People will get frustrated that he's not killing it when he'll still be only 20 or whatever.

Selwyn might like it on the wing when it comes time for Mariner to come, Herbie locks down fullback that's would be a easy fix it that's the case.

Selwyn could be like Wendell out on that wing if he wants to stay there. He never has said where he wants to play or what his position is.

Let's keep Te Maire at fullback. He's doing stuff in the attacking line I can't see Herbie bettering and his try line defence has been flawless.

Yawn this thread if you're gay for Herbie.

That other great Qld hooker, Macca, made his debut with the Broncs at 18…
