They sure do have our junior teams firing. Only a matter of time until it filters through to the top grade
Are Penrith starting to drop off in juniors?? I got no idea really, other than looking at tables. They out of top 8 in both junior rep comps. Be good if they don’t produce for at least a couple of yearsMan, our Mats boys are killing it. Watched a couple of their recent games on that MLP Live channel during the week. They just flat out bullied Penrith. Very physical forwards that actually play like a pack. We've got some talent coming through.
48 - 6 now after 50 minutes
I am of the belief that they have lost some depth - players going elsewhere to get a game and the fact that all clubs across Sydney are expanding pathways - players are being flown in from interstate to play in Hm n SGBall - leveling the playing field.Are Penrith starting to drop off in juniors??

Very true but they also have selective development of juniors. Jet Cleary is already being discussed as a promotion to flegg to help his overall development and reduce shots being taken at him.I am of the belief that they have lost some depth - players going elsewhere to get a game and the fact that all clubs across Sydney are expanding pathways - players are being flown in from interstate to play in Hm n SGBall - leveling the playing field.
It was only a matter of time, success never lasts forever, I believe Penrith had the jump on every nsw side with the junior pipeline that was created when everyone else had neglected theirs, and it wasn't till their first grade side was having success that everyone else took notice and realised they must do the same if they wish to have similar success, accepting it will take time (several years) to get the junior systems up to scratch, clubs like us and wests realised it's still a better long term option than constantly trying to buy a premiership with no success. So I don't necessarily believe Penrith are getting that much worse I think it's more the other teams like us that are just catching up.Are Penrith starting to drop off in juniors??

Longest game ever . . .it started lunchtime yesterday. The nswcup website hasn't updated. We'll be in the top 6 once it's updatedSG ball boys giving the tigers a bath today.
I know quite pathetic isn’t it. Our boys will be tired next weekLongest game ever . . .it started lunchtime yesterday. The nswcup website hasn't updated. We'll be in the top 5 once it's updated
its last game, lose we are out possiblyNext week's game against the steelers will be huge, we move into the top 4 with a win.
Second last, we play the thunderbolts in the last round who we should be able to beat so this week is a very key game.its last game, lose we are out possibly
Yes stand corrected mateSecond last, we play the thunderbolts in the last round who we should be able to beat so this week is a very key game.
Ideally we finish top 2,that way we get a week off and it is just 1 win to the gf.Next week's game against the steelers will be huge, we move into the top 4 with a win.
How good would it have been to have all grades playing at Belmore this week, would've loved to have our juniors experience that atmosphere.Hammondville oval this Sunday the place to be. Got our Harold Matt’s into SG ball into jersey Flegg.
Not sure if the young ones train the day before a game, yet I’d hope that the promising juniors are at the game on Saturday, watching nsw cup and the big boysHow good would it have been to have all grades playing at Belmore this week, would've loved to have our juniors experience that atmosphere.
Nice stuff. Alatani is a weapon, I know he is a Kiwi, but played Matts for us so could he be up for u19s origin, who else could get a call up? Woods? Maybe Seve and Seve? The FB in flegg also looks to be quite good. From those vids we have seemed to have found a few more forwards with a bit of size.Hammondville oval this Sunday the place to be.

Big fan of Alatini, especially when he plays on the right side. That first try he scored last week was pure speed, explosiveness and footwork ... a long way to go but one day we might just see Preston on the left and Alatini on the right.Nice stuff.
