3 tries in 11 minutes - woohoo.

Up by 8 with 3 minutes to play.

Won 26-24.

Puts them 7th, equal with the Dogs in 6th but 4 points below them on f/a.

There is still a mathematical chance to sneak in, but it would require 13th-place Norths beating 4th-place Illawarra by 27 points.

Would have been nice to have played that (cancelled) round 5 match against the bottom-of-the-table Dragons to pump up the f/a, but the boys had their chances in the final moments over the last two weeks and couldn't get it done.

Siteni is 18 or turning 18 this year
Thanks for clarifying.

Checked back through the info available. Looks like he is a late birthday so that threw me off. Was on ASSRL u15 team in 2019 which makes him a 2004 birthday. I’ll fix it up in post #1.

Being a late birthday, it’s still impressive he can be so dominant against players up to 18 months older than him.

Lawson Cotter has re-signed until the end of 2025.

(I think) he is born in 2004, so still eligible for SG Ball next year. Contract would take him though to 21.

Quite a few of the SG Ball team are playing for De La Salle in the Illawarra A Grade comp.

So far… Demeio, Jarvis, Hay, Cocco, Levi, Patterson, and Manuafetoa

Luke Raymond has re-signed for 2023-24.

Not 100% sure on his age, but I think he is born in 2004.

The only team announcement I have seen so far is from NSWCHS. No Sharks players, unless you count Chevy Stewart (who has signed with Canberra).

Thought this was most relevant here. There was a list of top 50 u18s floating around atm, here are ours listed.

45
Taj Brailey
State: NSW
Position: Hooker
Affiliation: Cronulla Sharks
School: De La Sale College


Another Brailey boy with a shot at playing NRL, Taj has attracted interest from several NRL clubs. Brailey will challenge Da Silva for selection in the Australian Schoolboys team.

44
Lama Afu
State: NSW
Position: Prop
Affiliation: Cronulla Sharks
School: Endeavour Sports High

Afu was considered so good by the Cronulla Sharks that the club relocated him from Queensland. The former Keebra Park High student will complete his schooling at Endeavour Sport High.

33
Jasper Catton
State: NSW
Position: Backrow
Affiliation: Cronulla Sharks
School: De La Salle College Cronulla,

The nephew of Andrew Ettingshuasen, Catton is a try scoring second rower who runs an impeccable line. A standout for the Sharks in Harold Matthews.

23
Chevy Stewart
State: NSW
Position: Fullback
Affiliation: Sharks
School: Endeavour Sports High


Named Harold Matthews player of the year, Stewart has been earmarked as Canberra’s future NRL fullback after signing a three-year deal with the Raiders. Stewart has been compared to a young Ryan Papenhuyzen.


19
Siteni Taukamo
State: NSW
Position: Fullback
Affiliation: Sharks
School: Newington College


Selected in the CIS NSW side, Taukamo will go fulltime with the Sharks at the end of the year. A powerful ball runner, Taukamo could also force his way into the NRL as a winger or centre although he is a natural fullback.

13
Max McCarthy
State: NSW
Position: Backrow/prop
Affiliation: Cronulla Sharks
School: Woolooware High

A rangy backrower who also plays in the middle, McCarthy knocked back interest from several NRL clubs before signing a two-year deal with the Sharks. McCarthy spearheaded the Sharks' run to the grand final in the Harold Matthews.

I'd take these rankings with a huge supply of salt as most of the players named were from the chooks, Broncos or panthers systems. So either they have all the talent or the writers didn't do a great cross section of research. Someone more informed can weigh in.

Still good to get some coverage of where a few of our guys are at.
