Would be a pretty big effort to go from under 20's to NRL playing in the middle all season. Not saying he can't do it but it's a massive ask imo.

Maybe, i have my doubts playing reserve grade does him much good since the standard seems to be so poor. I like damien cook but I'd prefer to back brailey now. He and nu could split the role perhaps, whichever way you look at it losing ennis makes us weaker. Your mate cherrington might be the buy of the year too haha

Yeah I'd like to see us back him as well. Would be very interesting if those two were our hooker rotation though in round 1, neither with first grade experience in the position.

Gonna be interesting, remember if your "Good enough your old enough". I recall one of our colleagues in here, very early on, critiquing a relatively unknown Jack Bird from the 20s, knowing and confirming his family pedigree, attitude, application and quietly predicting big things .It was obvious to me in that 9s game some time after,and that person has in the passing of a short time, been proved 100% spot on.

Haven't watched this mornings game. How did he go?

Quite well apparently. Looks like he might of won the spot for round 1.

Really well. For a first game with grown men he more than held his own. He will take some time warming into the role but I think by mid year he will be great. It is the other hooking spot I am not so convinced about.

He is off contract too I think?? Not that I see him leaving unless someone pays stupid money (looking at you Newcastle)

Quite well? Defensively yes but with the ball he was below par. Crap service.

You get Nu and Brailey mixed up like the Pommy commentators, mate?

Nope, they were both crap.

Brailey wasn't great but he wasn't bad. You cop a bump on the head or just trying to be antagonistic?

Totally agree. Little steps, big shoes to fill.

Brailey is our long term option and should be persisted with. Ideally he would rotate with segyaro for 2 seasons, but if that isn't the case I am not overly concerned. With holmes at the back we will still have a pretty good spine. We have 2 2nd rowers who can create in graham and lewis so will still have some good attacking options. I would like to see us get another solid winger/fullback for depth.

Neither. Im honest. He was crap. Plenty to build on, but a poor offensive game.

The Hair pull by the young man- on the worst player to ever pull on a sharks jersey, was epic!

I thought for sure when Toutai came on that we'd find a way to win, but unfortunately he went off injured not long after!

He's the best 21yr old hooker I've ever seen debut in a WCC.
