News Who’s that kid’: Young Bulldog catches Politis’ eye

[EXPLORER]

So how do you figure he will be a Rooster after that?

Fear the roo has that loser mentality. Must of been how he was raised, so blame his mum.

What on earth is going on?

No need to worry we have Mr Laundy

Enough of this bullshit Laundy is a fraud and has done fuck all for the club wake up

It’s funny cause it’s true

The kennel is a very seriouse place.

No place for jokes.

Rightio mate.

It’s way too early to call him a fraud but he sure is getting undeserved credit for a lot of the clubs work.

As it stands he is a fraud I hope to be proven wrong if the club is benefiting

That’s understandable I definitely get where you’re coming from.

All good mate.
I edited the post to include a note to inform people the post was a joke.
To ensure no further confusion.

Makes me sick the prick.

Fuck! It was fun while it lasted LOL!

Nothing article.

just the agent trying to get his player some publicity. I expect plenty of clubs will be after him anyway.

 

[Holbi49]

There was probably brown paper bags flying all around the place, players, agents and journo's would have been going like seagulls after a chip.

off contract right in time for the 17th team joining the comp

Politis always gets what he wants, when he carks it Roosters will be a spent force.

 

[KLil]

In years gone by I’d be worried but I think we’re on the right track and players will want to be at and play for the club.

Thats exactly right... We are heading back to the dogs of old where we snare the young guns and keep them.
Which Kid doesnt want to play in the same backline as JAC, Cotric, Avo and Burton.

Plus im pretty sure Flanagan will let him know all about it..

 

[B-Train]

Fuck the media love overhyping these kids up and creating bidding wars before they're even eligible for FG. Alamoti is a great talent but the last two articles have basically read as paid ads for Politis and the Roosters. Like they haven't raided enough juniors over the years...

Good thing it's a new era at Canterbury and the days of losing our best prospects are hopefully over with.

When it comes to uncle Nick we should be worried because whoever uncle Nick wants he gets.

NRL 2021: Bulldogs SG Ball centre Paul Alamoti has clubs buzzing | Daily Telegraph
Paul Crawley

Watch out Canterbury, Nick Politis knows talent when he sees it.

And it’s fair to say the NRL’s most powerful club chairman was impressed with what he saw from rugby league’s latest schoolboy sensation Paul Alamoti on the opening weekend of the SG Ball (Under 19s) competition.

The Sydney Roosters supremo was spotted at Belmore sitting with recently retired Roosters veteran Mitch Aubusson and leading player agent David Riolo, whose company Titan Sports Management looks after young Alamoti.

“I’d be lying if Nick didn’t say ‘who is that kid? He’d look good if we put a bit of red into that blue and white jersey’,” Riolo quipped.

At just 17, Alamoti scored two tries and the boom centre laid on a couple more in the 24-16 win over the Roosters.

But Riolo confirmed Alamoti was contracted to the Dogs until the end of next year and all Politis did was acknowledge what everyone else at Belmore saw.

Nick Politis in the stands at Belmore watching the junior reps.
“To be fair I was actually sitting talking to Mitch Aubusson who I have managed for many, many years and Nick walked up and didn’t even know I was there,” Riolo explained.

“Nick wasn’t there watching the kid.

“Nick was there watching the Roosters juniors and that kid put on a clinic.

“There is not a person who would have walked out of there going ‘who is the four for the Bulldogs’. He was that good.”

Canterbury is negotiating to upgrade and extend Alamoti’s deal but Riolo said “at the moment it is only early days”.

Alamoti’s enormous potential is hardly a secret to those who have kept an eye on the junior grades in recent years.

Alamoti scored two tries against the Roosters last weekend. Picture: David Swift.
The young Tongan has been tearing teams apart consistently and he actually knocked back an opportunity to go to the same rugby school as Joseph Suaalii at The King’s School, instead preferring to stay at Kogarah Marist for his final year.

Of course, the Roosters already have Suaalii in the top-30 squad.

Alamoti is a year younger than Suaalii but has played against him at junior level.

Over the summer Alamoti also spent some days training with Trent Barrett’s top squad and he will be moved into the Bulldogs’ fulltime system at the end of the year when he finishes school.

Laundry to Politis MATE back off, I too am a GOZILLIONAIRE and I too can afford to buy just as many brown paper bags as you matey!!!! Dogs of war are back, so bring it BITARCTH !!!!
