Below is from a tele article identifying rookies to watch in 2023.

Sharks

Kade Dykes
Club
: Sharks

Position: Fullback

Son of former Shark Adam, has already played two NRL games and looks a real star of the future. Electric fast, great skills, terrific hands, and he just has that footy IQ the way he can seize an opportunity. It will be interesting to see how he develops in 2023 with Will Kennedy currently owning the No.1 jumper.

Siteni Taukamo
Club
: Sharks

Position: Fullback/Winger

A former schoolboy rugby star at Newington College, he has now played the last couple of years in the Sharks system. Can play fullback or on the wing, is a big strong lad with the flair to go with it. Recently played for Greece at the World Cup where he scored their first ever World Cup try.

Jesse Colquhoun
Club
: Sharks

Position: Prop

A Wollongong junior overlooked by the Dragons, but they reckon Craig Fitzgibbon absolutely loves him because of his hardworking attitude. Which is about as good a rap as you could give any young middle forward. Originally turned up at the Sharks just chasing a trial but has since signed until the end of 2024. Has four NRL games so far despite only recently turning 21.
Hard to argue with any of those, though I think Siteni is a while off first grade, the other 2 will defn play.

Stonestreet and Iro should get a mention.

Lol. These guys have obviously never seen Connor Tracey pass :ROFLMAO:

Also - Just name every guy who came through the Sharks system and merge them in to the same mythical 20's team.

Good luck to BHU for rehabbing his broken leg.
Hopefully he should be back start of new year without issue if that's what it was

Haha. That stopped me in my tracks too for a microsecond.

nrl.com has him with a calf injury. Hopefully he gets in some of the preseason
