Shute Shield 2023

[Jack Gallagher]

Any standout players in Shute Shield, not already signed to the 'Tahs, demanding Super Rugby attention?

Hunter - Connor Winchester & D Freeman, solid and reliable players.
Norths - Jude Gibbs and Gersowski, very impressive kicking game and workhorse.

Manly - Barnabas, turnover god.
Gordon - Quinns been good.
Eastwood - Stovold & JL Bacon, young, enthusiastic and emerging.
Rats, Souths, West Harbour - dont think they will be getting much attention from recruiters

Pama Fou is still pretty handy.

I know there’s still plenty of footy left but I think after Sydney Uni the bottom 5 are out of it. Easts without Wilson and Bowen for a while.

Uni lurking and will get players back. Gordon might have Vailanu, Goddard, Walton come in which can make a big difference.

anyone know if Archer Holz is inj or not?

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

No idea. Some of those things may become clearer when any Aus A squads might be announced for those next level guys.

Uni had a couple more Super Rugby players with FF (Folau Fainga'a) and Robertson.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Completely missed Fa'aingaa. Good pick up. Had no idea about Robertson

Talakai as well

Where is Talakai named? I saw he was in Wallaby camp.

sorry I ment he would come back to uni if not in the squad, i'll do my best in future to not get distracted by actual work & hit post so quickly

Every chance they end up with Jake Gordon, Swinton, Botha, Talakai, Von Appen apart from the players already in the team. Robertson, Fa'aingaa, Kennewell, Clunies-Ross, Poolman, Clements, Morrison all with Super Rugby or Aus 7s, Aus U20s

Again, I'm not across the whole points and how it gets applied come first grade but it ends up one hell of a squad.

Plenty of others at Super Rugby sides as well with Uni ties. Phillip, Horton etc

My suspicion is that Angus Bell will play soon but it will be 30 mins off the bench and you won’t see it on a Wed team list.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Hope so. Same for Tupou in QPR with a bit of luck for the Wallabies.

I see Nowlan is back at the wicks, pretty handy pick up mid yr

 

[fatprop]

Can you imagine the opposing winger looking up the team sheet and seeing he has Nadolo running at him

The Woodies will handle him.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Blaise Barnes isn't the biggest human but there's every chance he'll step Nadolo
