Senior Representative Teamlists for Round 8

[Vasco]

Wow,based on those highlights he looks like he could help our FG side now lol

Ball playing,goal kicking,great stepping and big bodied 5/8th is something our FG side lacks at the moment..

Looks a great prospect!

Looks a talent doesn't he.

Cup pulled off a Textbook set, in the dying minutes...

-kick pressure, charge down effects turnover

-4 yardage carrie's to get into good field position (started inside Rooster's half, finished on dragons 20m line)

-last carry, finds his fronts, quick ptb

-Elliott, perfectly executed kick

...signed, sealed & delivered!

Well done Roosters!

Uncle,

You have probably watched Hugo Savalo play a bit.....what's your take on him?
Is he up to 1st grade standard yet and should the powers that be invest in him by awarding him a development deal?

The 2024 production line is looking good... Savala, Foley, Elliott, Rodwell, Papa, Metcalfe...

I thought Tia was promising last year, but by the looks there may have been some issues that the powers decided to let him go.

Like all these young Chooks pushing their claims to play FG... i'm sure they are under the watchful eyes of Robbo & the various coaching staff, so consistent solid performances at Cup level will no doubt help their cause.

I'm no expert, but in these spine positions, there is the added pressure of game management (hence the higher price tag)... so to answer your question, if he continues to put in good consistent performances in Cup & add the Rooster's balancing act of the roster/salary cap, to account for injuries & any other unforeseen circumstances, then he's as good a chance as any in our current system.

I did overhear at a SGBall game this year, from an official of a rival club that half the current chooks side that day would walk into their 30 next year no hesitation! I took it as a compliment to the Chooks system & the high standards in place, that makes FG no easy feat to achieve, & that's the way it should be. A Rooster's jumper is no easy ride. Have a good day mate.

Well said.
Thanks Uncle

Sava looks very classy.

I don't normally get too carried away with youngsters in the lower grades because not many of them make first grade. This kid looks the goods though.
