Lindsay Collins

[Tommy Smith]

Courtesy of R6 - thanks again - it sounded like this kid was hugely impressive.

A try or two I believe?

Would it be too early to suggest that if Evans doesn't start the season well that Collins will grab a bench spot? Thoughts R6?

Quick on the trigger once again.. Maybe you should read the earlier posts from previous games. and save us another thread!

Thank you for your contribution, Turk.

Enriching the forum as always

Bit aggressive aren't we, and another thread won't break the site.

We? Aggressive?

I think what we've got to remember is that Tetevano & Chris Smith have both been in the Roosters system for a year now so I think in Robinson's mind he's probably 3rd in the pecking (without taking Butcher & Knight into consideration).

Last year I definitely would have predicted that Lindsay Collins would be there or there abouts but the depth in forwards this year runs far more deep. Just based on what I saw yesterday afternoon though (and I know that's not a whole lot to go off) I think he's a very promising prospect. Just a huge bloke who hits hard and runs straight all game, I'd say he would be the most solid unit we have on the books or at least up there with Jared.

Any X factor about Collins, R6?

Looks like he might have that little bit of nutter in him.

There was a kick off restart after Wyong had conceded a try and he lead the defensive line by a good 3 metres met the opposition prop front on and the impact was huge! Knocked the ball clean out.

Still too early to commit to an opinion of him though, all I know is I really want to see more.

How old is this guy and did he play any FG for Broncos? I have never heard of him prior to him signing with us and I live in Qld.

And just a footnote here. I usually stay out of the rubbish that goes on here but Tommy you had every right to ask this question about Collins in a separate thread. Plenty of people, including myself, will learn more about Collins from you doing so.
So Matching Underwear or Turk, or whoever you are, you really dont do yourself any favours with your comment.

He played off the bench for Brisbane 20s in 2015, had a shoulder reconstruction at the begining of 2016 which kept him out for a while but finished the season starting for the Broncos 20s.

This is hist first year out of 20s, no first grade games yet

I would've though he'd be up against Evans and the garbo for a bench spot now that Moa is gone.

Most of our forward depth seems to be backrowers? Not sure what position Tetevano, Smith or Knight are considered for.

I like what Im hearing about Lindsay boy. I love the Roosters having big aggressive front rowers that sail very close to the wind & being suspended on occasions for foul play.

[Thirteen]

Wow another good prospect. Along with Knight too. Thanks for the info on this guy. I didn't know too much about him.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

I still haven't seen this lad yet unfortunately.

From those that have, is he a Napa clone?
