I didn’t realise either:

Hynes confirmed this week he would focus on the Sharks’ preparations ahead of their Las Vegas season opener, while Indigenous coach Ronnie Griffiths said Walker would also not feature in the annual clash.

Sharks players Braydon Trindall, who combined brilliantly with Hynes during last year’s Indigenous victory, Will Kennedy and Jesse Ramien will not play, nor will Newcastle duo Bradman Best and Adam Elliott.

I imagine the Puru’s and Tuku would be a chance, with so many out
Good chance Tuks comes to Vegas so they may not want him to play.
Purus both a good shout though - I image we don't play anyone inside our expected Vegas 21 but there could be some guys outside that who play and fly.

I'm glad Nicho was left out. Just concentrate on the Sharks and shut everything else out!

I didn’t want Nicho anywhere near Freddy and the same applies to Loz ..

On a different note, from the current squad, Nicho is the only one who currently meets the HOF criteria I believe. When he wins a comp for us this year he'll be 5/5.

✅Demonstrated exceptional performance on and off the field
✅Been an international Test representative. (Including Rugby League World Cup matches)
✅Played State of Origin
❌Played 100 first-grade games for the Cronulla Sharks or won a premiership with the Club.
✅Received a Dally M Medal, NRL-recognised award (e.g. Dally M positional award, Provan Summons Medal, Rothmans Medal, Ken Stephen Medal) or a Porter-Gallen Medal/Sharks Player of the Year award.

He was there. On the Park, but according to the numpty coaches, he was no existent (thanks to his team mates).

Ronnie meets 4/5 HOF.

✅Been an international Test representative for NZ
❌Played State of Origin (was a bee's hoohah away)
✅Played 100 first-grade games for the Cronulla Sharks
✅Received a Ken Stephen Medal in 2021

Talakai meets 4/5 HOF
✅Demonstrated exceptional performance on and off the field
✅Been an international Test representative for Tonga
✅Played State of Origin for NSW
✅Played 100 first-grade games for the Cronulla Sharks (will have in two games this season)
❌Received a Dally M Medal, NRL-recognised award (e.g. Dally M positional award, Provan Summons Medal, Rothmans Medal, Ken Stephen Medal) or a Porter-Gallen Medal/Sharks Player of the Year award.

Brailey meets 3/5 but is probably closest as he could get a SOO call up if Robson has a **** year
✅Demonstrated exceptional performance on and off the field
❌Been an international Test representative
❌Played State of Origin
✅Played 100 first-grade games for the Cronulla Sharks
✅2x Porter-Gallen Medal/Sharks Player of the Year

AFB just needs to play 100 games for us (if we deem him to have demonstrated exceptional performance on and off the field),
Nikora, Katoa & BHU needs to win Daly M Postional awards or a Porter-Gallen Medal and he will be eligible.

Sorry maybe I should post this in the HOF thread.

That is a good start to our season. Let’s hope Laurie commits early to no Nicho, gets walloped by Queensland and everyone is left saying “why didn’t you pick Nicho?!”

I would guess that would be the second question after "how did Laurie get the gig again?"

Nice! I'd forgotten about the Ken Stephen for Ronnie which counts him in too. Not by any means saying any of them will end up there, just interesting looking at the criteria and seeing who would be eligible.
