Zac Rumble.... What a name!!
Speaking of old names Will Kerr is back playing for the Camden Rams.Raiders have pinched Bailey Simonsson after his stint in Rugby. Fucking Des costing us that kid.

Yes bloody wonderful....they are learning younger and younger these days how to work the system.Speaking of old names Will Kerr is back playing for the Camden Rams.
Castle said they suspended his contract for a year when he went overseas but who knows if that was true or not. I think Camden is a Tigers catchment area but I don’t think footy is really a priority for Kerr so I doubt he will make it.Did we not give Kerr a leave of absence to pursue romance overseas? Let's see..... what club has the Camden Rams a group 6 club in its catchment area??
Came to us as a 12 year old from the Rams.Showed promise and has ability so won't be happy if he goes on to kill it at another club considering the time we invested in him. We lose him yet re-sign others from the lower grade sides that would have been less of a priority.Castle said they suspended his contract for a year when he went overseas but who knows if that was true or not.

Who knows if the suspension of the contract even happened. I guess a lot depends on if Kerr wants to even play footy at that level again he might just be playing out there with his mates. If he was willing to walk away last time then maybe his heart isn’t truely in it.If we did suspend the contract then he surely would have been expected to honour it when he returned, but then what is a contract? I gues it depends on what actually took place and the validity of the story.
At least we know he has a career to fall back onto if footy doesn't work outZac Rumble.... What a name!!
I think you'll find Simmonson is a Canberra junior so now that he's finished school in Sydney (Newington) he's probably playing closer to home.Yes bloody wonderful....they are learning younger and younger these days how to work the system.
Simmonson; thanks Desmond.....

Gotta disagree with you there mate unless you've seen something I havent watched him play a few times this year played well against the weak sides went missing against the better sides over and over his performance in sg ball grand final was disgusting, let 2 tries in and ran for a whopping 30 meters, hates contact full stop. Known amongst his team mates as the koala, protected by warren McDonnell, speaking with coaching staff of ah ball at hammondville oval during the season, they all question his toughness or lack of to go any further, just hope if he's playing full back he doesn't keep shying away from that hard carry early in tackle count, it gets harder and harder us you go up in levelI think you'll find Simmonson is a Canberra junior so now that he's finished school in Sydney (Newington) he's probably playing closer to home.
Taukamo was unbelievable at 11 to 14 years of age. Fastest in NSW over 100m, a foot taller and 30kg heavier than all his age. Everyone caught up and now he's a foot shorter, big backside and a bit soft from playing out wide all his life. Released from South's for being a lazy trainer. Heard he cried when preseason NRL training got hard!
Why would Kerr come back when Sultana forced him to starting hooker at SG? He was better than Wakeham but they couldn't see it. Just like Reed Mahoney was the best hooker by far that year and he sat behind Kerr getting 5 mins a game!! No idea.
If the Dogs are smart they should tie up Tyrone Harding long term. Awesome talent. Like a young GI but with an even better kicking game. He's the best 5/8 option but will play fullback
Point taken about the toughness, it's the one intangible difficult to measure until you see them in a prize fight. On talent he's worth signing long term. He had shoulder surgery 2017 and may lack confidence in contact. Same as Zac Saddler, could be anything if he gets his fitness and mojo back after long layoff with knee. Patience key for both.Gotta disagree with you there mate unless you've seen something I havent watched him play a few times this year played well against the weak sides went missing against the better sides over and over his performance in sg ball grand final was disgusting, let 2 tries in and ran for a whopping 30 meters, hates contact full stop.

Agree with you on the situation a few years back with Reed Mahoney - defensively he was a class above but hardly got any minutes. Harding im not sure about.I think you'll find Simmonson is a Canberra junior so now that he's finished school in Sydney (Newington) he's probably playing closer to home.

Could both be spelling errors.New players in the 20's squad are:
- Josh Broad and Cooper Lewis are unknowns atm.
Lewis Cooper, all reports are good,prop,backrower quicker than most centres,Tough country kid,will definitely be one to follow if homesickness doesn’t get to him.Could both be spelling errors.
Joshua Board - half from Orange CYMS/Western Rams U18
Lewis Cooper - Sawtell U18/First Grade
