Some thoughts on the trial team - mostly with the finishers

Lington Ieli - Only LHP reserve chosen with Vella ACL. May have a regular role in the 23.

Timma Fainga’anuku - Minus 1 m and you have a Tongan winger with lots of NPC experience. But THP from Brisbane and Rebels had him on overseas pre season tour. Previous Aust Under 20 squad.

Eli Langi - Deleted from several versions of team lists. Played in 2024 Australian Under 18 Team as 6 from Brisbane State school.

Judah Saumaisue - Locally produced Melbourne Rebel was original squad member for Aus Under 20 but injured and played Dewar Shield local Melb comp. Selected by Fiji for Under 20 World Cup as a short Lock (1.91 m) plays 6 and hair like Rob Valetini.

Just watching a replay of the pre-season game now, does anyone know the winger for Brumbies in the head gear, doesn't look like Ben O'Donnell to me?

Looks like a good pickup. Showed lots of good pace and evasiveness with ball in hand in the trial.
He's one of the very last of that 2019 under 20s team to go pro and has been a real talent for UQ in the interim. Very keen to see him crack on now that he's getting his chance. Might also be a smokey for the Indigenous/Pasifika v Lions game if he can get a chance to show his wares this year.

Would be good to see his brothers get picked up too.
