Sharks Feeders 2021 (Jets, Glebe, Uni, Fiji)

[Proud Shark]

Isnt Sorenson more of a backrower? Thought he'd be more likely to get a run on an edge.

Yeah - back rower.

Here is the status of the Newtown lineup. I'd expect Flano wants to take 18 or 19 guys to Townsville with him and I reckon a couple of those U20 guys might stay down .. so the actual squad for round 1 is anyone's guess at this stage. Looks like Moraitis might be the captain.

Surely they can do better than Moraitis as captain.

Then again he's ZERO chance of playing first grade so they know the Captain will always be available if fit.

He attended the launch with all of the other captains but they didn't actually say that he has the gig. To be honest I can't see anyone better on that list who is likely to be with Newtown all year. Most of those guys are either very young, new to the team, or likely to be up in the NRL for much of the season.

I guess the main thing to take from this is that Kurt Dillon is NOT the captain - which probably means he is more likely to get a look in for the NRL team.

 

[BurgoShark]

Forgot to list Uele as an injured player

Notes

Brailey to start.

Cruz Topai-Avaei, Lumelume and Carr are all named in Jersey Flegg (20's)

Aufaga-Toomaga, Vasquez, King, Faalua, Nikora, Tuilagi, Jordan Topai-Aveai are the Sharks players not named in any grade (plus Uele and Flanagan obviously)

Leigh Higgins and Matthew Jurd are the Jets players not named.

No word on any of the trialing players. None are named.

I will keep an eye on the Glebe lineup and see if any of these guys turn out for them.

I'm guessing Flano takes both of Capewell and Dillon to Townsville at a minimum and decides on his lineup when he gets there (Ava should play but might not). The most likely guys to come back to the Jets IMO are Hodko and Gray.

 

[BurgoShark]

Newtown were as programmed on the weekend. Lost 25-24.

Ron Massey Cup doesn't start until 7 April so there is currently very little information available as to whether or not the remaining guys actually got a game on the weekend. Glebe did play a pre-season game so I suspect at the very least the two Jets contracted guys might have played.

 

[snowman]

the newtown game was a heart breaker

came back from 24-12 down and lost wtih 20 seconds to go

Yeah - I didn’t watch because Falcons/Bears was on at the same time, but was following on Twitter. Bummer for those boys, but it sounds like a few of the Sharks players put on a good showing in their first game on NSw Cup.

[BurgoShark]

The 5/8 gets referred to as “Jack J “. Williams” by the Sharks but the Jets haven’t picked that up yet.

 

[Tiger Shark]

Is Nikora injured ? I'd thought he's be a starter for Newtown

 

[snowman]

think he is playing 20's again

 

[Tiger Shark]

Nikora is in the Jets team this weekend, good news. Very interested in seeing how he progresses.
