Same was said about Nat.

[Tommy Smith]

I still think Nat Butcher will make an outstanding 1st grader.

He's still only 21.

TPJ is almost 23 and only just had his break out year. Billy Kikau is 23 1/2 and just had his break out year.

Obviously different types of players but the point is that some players, forwards especially, take a little longer to grow into their body and make an impact.

Where was the Shaquai this year?

He was playing for Wyong in the Central Coast competition, where he played 18 Reserve Grade games, and 3 in First Grade.

I do not think thats anywhere near final. Goes for all the teams listed.
Apprently Souths are trying to get Sutton to retire as he isn't listed in the top 30.

On Shaq, he is one of the most naturally talented and knowledgeable footballers I have come across. But could not get fit enough to show it.
I think eventually he will end up a very good coach

Agreed. I like him.
Looking forward to seeing him continue to progress, and no better coach to help him do so...

TPJ and Kikau are big men. Nat is pretty small.
