I think it's unfair and invalid to base it on post-school success. Le Maître did what Waugh couldn't, and that it so take Shore to an outright premiership.
Nah he should stay on the wing he is not experienced enough to fill the big shoes.Definitely, I think it was a bit strange to have him on the wing. Personally I think i'd put him in the #15 or the #10 jersey. His skill is next level ( as demonstrated in the 15s comp) and would be greatly wasted on the wing.
Who's big shoes?Nah he should stay on the wing he is not experienced enough to fill the big shoes.
His game play his phenomenal, 2 years in the Waratahs and is proving to be a threat on the field. Would like to see him at 10
Callan abott the springbokThis will be interesting.....
Tobias Gandy. Joeys 15A No.12 for 2024. He is an absolute weapon on and off the ball. He is an threat in both league and union with a bright future ahead of him. I believe that is Footy IQ is through the roof and is good enough to take on the seniors in the 2nd XV in 2025. He may have had a tough awakening last Saturday against view but it will definitely be for the best and I have a feeling he will be a deciding factor in whether Joeys can lift the shield in years to come.Is there any other boys from gps 15's this year that could potentially get a run in the 1's or 2's next year?
Lachlan McDonald prop Joeys. Seems to be getting snubbed from representative sides due to politics and what not. but heres the info he's a ball playing prop, animal on both ends and can play a whole game. With his offloading game, ball playing and dominant defence he could definitely make a push for 1s or 2s in 2025, Joeys really have a talent on their hands, definitely one to watchIs there any other boys from gps 15's this year that could potentially get a run in the 1's or 2's next year?
100%. He featured in the 2nds for a few trial matches earlier this year but spent most his time in the 4th XV. Damaging ball runner who loves a good 'show and go'. He was stuck behind the likes of Le Maitre and Baxter this year, but next year is his!
Jeez Bulldozer, its like you know the bloke. If his old man can stick him with a cattle prod before each game, we could witness something special.I’d have to agree with you here. His eyes for the line mentality and tenacious line out jumping could be exactly what shore needs to keep the quality of line outs up next year. A real potential for that second row position
Mate his performance on the weekend was outstanding possibly 1 and 2 prospect for next year. Especially with that try saver on nico rosser assisted by the courageous halfbackLachlan McDonald prop Joeys.

This kid is 16s, however he is someone truly worth looking out for next year. Pat Smith (Joeys). A true game controlling 10 whose game has gone somewhat under the radar. Very promising young flyhalf. I have seen him play numerous times and I'm 95% sure he got a run in the opens this past preseason. Watch for him next year.Is there any other boys from gps 15's this year that could potentially get a run in the 1's or 2's next year?

From my knowledge he has been imported into Joeys from Cranbrook. Starting in the 2025 School year. He is the son of Irish and Leinster legend Steven Barretto. Big things coming from the boy from NewcastleBen berretto import for joeys ?
Having been involved with Cliffy Palau way back in his Manly Colts days - to my knowledge he never went to Newington or any other GPS school for that matter. He in fact went to Balgowlah Boys' High School (my old school).8. Wycliff Palu (Newington 2000 - someone please double check both the school and the year, I'm pretty sure my knowledge serves me well but the internet says otherwise)
