Egan Butcher

[Rooster90]

Impresses me more and more every game

Seems to bend the line more than his brother

[Cockadoodledoo]

Reminds me a little of Cordner.

Thought the whole bench were terrific tonight again when they came on, same last week.

All 3 forwards ran over 100m and did a great job. Lam locking up the centres and not forcing us to move Tupouniua out there in the 2nd half was a huge help too.

Egan will play SOO within two years.

He looks very good. He’s a different style of player to his brother. Nat adds value to the team in other ways.

[Serenader]

He impresses me more and more. Bloke I work with who is involved with Souffs younger grades, told me a year or so ago that he will b better than Nat. That is clear to see now

[Rooster89]

I think Egan runs harder than his brother and that is in mean dissing Nat in any way, just different running types.

in saying that once Newcastle opened up it was way for all of our forwards to look decent.

[Johnny Brass]

Loving to see his progress he charges into the line and looks like he has a bit more mongrel than Nat.

Terrible take lol

[Roosterfarian]

Egan will play SOO within two years.

And he’ll captain Australia within three?

[Mickie Lane]

Will be interesting to see where both E Butcher & Baker end up. They are both bigger sort of blokes who according to the Roosters homepage are 2nd rowers. From watching the Roosters under Robbo you first have to do an apprenticeship playing in the middle before you can play backrow which Sitilli & Angus had to do but those 2 will be the backrowers for a while so for Butcher & Baker to get into the run on side they will have to bide their time playing in the middle getting Robbos confidence & then if an injury comes up then maybe a shot at playing on the edge. I think E Butcher could be a good backrower if given the opportunity & time.

Lol. He’d have a good hard go!
