I would have thought his main priority was putting the right people and systems in place to facilitate good junior pathways, which in time will have positive results for the NRL team. The fact it is already reaping rewards says plenty.

I remember very early on in his tenure I was amazed at his workload. He was always jetting off to northern NSW, Queensland or some other place. Him and others have cherry picked boys like Marshall, Kallum Weatherall-Stacey (don’t know if he’s still involved) Isaac Matalavea-Booth and probably many more I can’t name. He organised a partnership with Toowoomba Clydesdales and Farrar H.S and another, maybe Port Macquarie?

A lot of juveniles want to mock his lack of success in his job, well when I see 2 of our 3 junior teams being grand finalists, that’s all I need to confirm that Gus is certainly not the problem. Hopefully we keep a lot of the best young players and they’ll be killing it in first grade in a few years. I don’t know how much Gus had/has to do with the ladies, but we also made the GF in that comp.
Well said

Not sure if mentioned early and hopefully not a jinx. But if we do win we will become the most successful flegg club ever. Currently us and souths have 9 each as the most successful clubs in this comp. Funny we never won a NYC but doing well this year in Flegg.

Crazy that Nehe probably had the most successful career out of everyone there

Watched Dogzilla play for Warrington in the game against Castleford last night. He's still got it IMO :grinning: 2-3 try assists with beautiful passes and looks even more agile than when he played for us. Billy T playing for Tigers....Billy's team went down 66-12.

There looks like a fair few forwards would make it over here too :grinning:

I'm surprised the club didn't give Woods a crack In flegg this year to see where he was at playing up in age all the games I seen him always a class above everyone in his own age group and considering how our flegg has gone this year would have been ideal to blood him hopefully we can keep him away from the Swans there our biggest threat in keeping him . Hopefully he will get pushed through the junior ranks next season
He’s only 17 and small build . He’d get monstered against 21 year olds.
