  • Finally saw Wyong play.

    Good comeback from them.
    I don't wanna mention the usual suspects or non-Rooster players.
    Two blokes I've never seen before looked pretty good, Billy Smith and the 2nd rower Curran? I think.
    Both look like proper footballers

    Eddie it could be that Curran and Smith looked like footballers as they have 'only just joined the Wyong side' from our juniors. Curran was an outstanding schoolboy player and Smith is a local junior rep who switched across from the rugby ranks. Let's hope they kick on well. Very early days, but Curran is already in our squad at 18.

      I’ve read good things about Curran. Apparently he was an exceptional schoolboys player. I’ve never heard of Billy Smith though. How old is he?

        Smith finished school last year so he's only 18 or 19. He was the captain of rugby at Scots College

          I think it's a different Billy Smith to the one who used to play for St George.

            Thanks. I look forward to seeing how he develops as we can sure use some depth in the backs.
            Does anyone have any info on how young Lam and O’Sullivan have been going?

                Smith spent the entire game adjusting his
                hair. Seemed more interested in his appearance.

                  Thought he had a good 2nd half. Looks to me like a better centre prospect than Manu was 2 or 3 years back.

                    Would have been a beaut story if he was that Billy Smith as he would have to be in his 70's now

                      Billy Smith is currently training with the NRL squad and is an outstanding young prospect. Probably needs to put on a bit of weight and yes he could do with a haircut.

                          But still better than what we've got

                            He's got Brett Mullins legs.

                            But why do fans worry about hair cuts?
                            Think of what happened to Sampson......................We had a young forward years ago called Bibi Edgerton (I kid you not) who was playing the house down in reserve grade, until he had a haircut. Then he was hopeless.
                            True story.
