RTS to play for NZ

[Andrew Walker]

That step he put on to score that try was insane.

So fast.

He has a top step But really that was not too hard to pull of with the cover coming across as it was Pretty much a regulation step for a winger of his ilk

When he eventually does get to fullback or even 5/8 if he stays in League then you will see the real show

Glad we signed him long term. Thank you POS.

Chook.

No it is not official the team I think is not named till tomorrow night

It would be nice to see him get a run I didn't expect it, he would be holding out some good players.

Anyway he is a great young talent, very bright future.

When he learns to use that killer step as a shock weapon rather than his only weapon, he will be even better. The thing about RTS is we know he has the heart to match his feet. Rarely do you see a kid his age play the game with such assurance. Still dont have an idea about his pace. Maybe you guys can help. He is zippy, but can he mow down a flying winger? Does he have the speed to get to the line if he gets one of those SBW specials 10 metres out from his own line?

I think RTS is a genius in the making, but is he ready for Test footy?

What is he, 18?

He's played about 9 first grade games and has no set position. His wing defence is still fringe first grade.

Congrats great news

He is such a natural under the high ball.
Cannot wait to get him to FB

Poor kid will probably be defending outside SKD again and up against the QLD left fringe of Thurston, Inglis & Boyd with Slater wrapping around the back.

Wings not his position, I just hope he and Skidsy don't get found out too much, but it's almost inevitable.

He's clearly not a winger.

One would think they will pick him as 18th or 19th man to get the feel of rep footy and to meet the players etc.

They have good stocks of outside backs no need to rush him.

[Hawkeye]

The Mole on Twitter says that RTS has secured a wing spot for next weeks Test Match. The world is this kid's oyster!

Happy for him ...but you can see his $$ value just starting to skyrocket !

Correct.
And we need to get the result with this team asap before they come up for grabs on the open market. The better results we get the bigger $ our players will command.

We would need to employ News to do our salary cap figures

[Spanner in the works]

Got named.

I guess robbo and Kearney think that he is a winger.

I don't like our boys playing in rep games, but I hope the kid gets some confidence from this one.

Well deserved and an absolute freak in the making.

Lucky we signed him long term before the start of the season.
