Logan Spaander ex Broncos. Was a decorated junior rep for QLD in the lower grades, but had seemingly fallen down the pecking order at the Broncos. Wish him well.

Yes he did. Not much impact. That said, he only trained once with the side.

He should be better for the run. Think his confidence needs time to heal due to his mistreatment by the Broncos. Not the first to be shipped off from there U20's outfit.

Tumut teenager Zac Masters signed by Canberra Raiders

WITH one door closed on the path to an NRL career, another has burst open for Tumut young gun Zac Masters.

A month short of his 19th birthday, Masters has been headhunted by the Canberra Raiders for the remainder of the Holden Cup season.

Canberra under-20 coach Brett White called Masters a month ago and “invited” the highly talented back rower to considering joining the Raiders.

Both Cotric and Guler were NSW U18. NSW U20 team yet to be named. Look for Croker to be named. Not sure if any other Raiders will be considered.

I wouldn't mind seeing Jack Williams get a run for NSW.

EDIT: Just saw that he is 20 already.

I think anyone playing under 20s is still eligible. So Williams could still get a run.

Gee next year looks promising, not losing a lot there. Woolford and Williams the obvious ones.

1998 births look good.

Woolford is a massive out for them. Going to be hard to replace.

Love to see us hold on to both but signing people up like Sorensen, I don't know if we have spots. I guess we might see a top tier player move on after the season is over.

Has there ever been a bigger turnaround than the grand final. Penrith best side all year 28-6 up at half time, Garvey off, they would have been a million to one.

Love him in defence. He's all courage in attack too. Hope he puts on enough size to be able to make it. He definitely has the attitude.
That whole game he was trying to put similar shots on.

He'll probably spend 2 years in mounties before being ready.
