I'm fairly good with schoolboy rugby up here, but I can't say I've heard of him.

Good luck to him. Certainly fills the "big winger" brief in a back 5 if he kicks on.

NZ 16s Player of the Year | Sione Moala
Sione had a brilliant season on the field and epitomises the values of New Zealand Rugby League off the field. As a skillful half, Sione’s leadership and performance was integral to the New Zealand Resident 16s win over the Toa Samoa 16s.

Queensland’s top rookies dreaming of being part of State of Origin next’s generation

JAYDEN CLARKSON (Wavell SHS)

Clarkson is a hard working front rower in the Jarrod Wallace or Ben Hannant mould. There is just something about this Wavell SHS old boy that makes you think he will come out the other side of the junior system. Clarkson is signed by Canberra who have fellow Queensland rookies like KEEGAN VANDENBERG and XAVIER SAVAGE (winger, see story below).

ADRIAN TREVILYAN (Kirwan SHS)

The Canberra Raiders have shown great judgment in sneaking under the noses of the North Queensland Cowboys to secure Kirwan SHS High hooker Adrian Trevilyan and his teammate, halfback BRAD SCHNEIDER. Trevilyan is a Queensland under 18s representative who won the 2019 Peter Sterling Medal at the National Schoolboys Championship.

XAVIER SAVAGE (Palm Beach Currumbin)

You’d pay money to watch Reece Walsh, Alofianan Khan-Pereira and Savage in a foot race. Savage is a North Queensland native who came to PBC SHS via elite private school Brisbane Boys College. Another Raiders signing, he has sheer speed which makes him an enticing prospect.

PRINSTON ESERA (Wavell SHS)

PRINSTON ESERA and his brother CALEB ESERA were two exciting prospects under lock and key to the Canberra Raiders. Caleb, a rangy second rower, has left school but his brother will be playing his third season in the Langer Cup next season for Wavell SHS. A beautiful mover, a real rolls royce of centres, this kid Prinston Esera has got it.

How exciting is it to see these comps coming back? Let’s hope Sydney gets over this little hump at the moment and we have a great season. Well worth any Raiders fans popping out to a game if you have a bit of spare time one afternoon. It is great footy and for some playing at the top level is closer than you think.

Sadly, it seem this season is under threat again. We still have five weeks but under the current rules our first round would have to be played at Seiffert or Goulburn to comply with the border rules.

Let’s hope we don’t go through more disruptions.
