Posted elsewhere but he is one of the best 18 year old talents around. Was a star in the Dragons big SG Ball win over us last year. Prototype lock, averaging 130m+, busts tackles and has a silky passing game. Physically dominant in NSW Cup as a teenager. Walks straight into our top 30 next year. We have been trying to bring him across now and hopefully this public announcement makes its a reality.

Fantastic signing.

Are you his uncle?

Has he played first grade this year? This is out of no where? I’m guessing Morrin and a few edge graders will be leaving next year

Steady on, he's only 18, turns 19 in June, and we all know that Gould and Ciraldo are not going to rush him, or anyone else for that matter, into the NRL until they are well and truly ready. As a middle 1/3rd player he's physically and mentally 2 maybe 3 years away from playing NRL week in week out. Sure he might make an appearance now and then to give him exposure and encouragement, but regularly, that's not how they roll.

not your typical 18yo, he’ll be physically ready earlier than most but yes he is most likely seen as the succession to Mann in 2027

The kid’s a talent. Frank Pritchard got him to the Dragons to play HM in 2022-runs good lines. Had us on the back foot in the SG ball final last year

Should go to another level under Ciraldos gruelling preseason.
 
He's on the extended bench for Dragons tomorrow.
 
Watched the nsw cup he played in last week as I am couch bound after fracturing my patella in footy two weeks ago (not ideal). He looked big, fast, strong and one of the best players on the field which is a great sign for a teenager playing cup. Good get,
 
Promising signing. Strong ball runner. Hits like a sledge hammer. Yep hell fit right in. Its great to see players now wanting to sign with this great club. The knights put in a 1.2 million dollar over three years and the Dragons were desperate to keep him.
