Matts team announcements

Teddy is a handy boxer as well. He came up here and sparred one of our young state champs.

Yeah,think he is a junior age champion?Some interesting connections...Ollie Cummins on the wing in Matthews is the son of Turtle Cummins the Marlins coach...The centre Lemoto played/plays with Wilson at Gordon junior rugby too I think....

The ones that stand out in the Matthews side to me are the 7,9 and 10.Teddy Wilson is the son of Rugby union legend David Wilson and has some serious talent.Dan O'Donnell is the son of former Manly hooker David and is another local junior (and is no surprise as captain).Ahofono was a top player from last years side.Lots of good players in the Ball side...Weekes,Turner,Schuster,Tuitavake(local jr with a big future),Pinomi stand out to me.Fotu is a try scorer in the second row and Uesele is quality at lock.Tito on the wing is one we stole from the Roosters lol(Ironic ?)

SJ Any wraps on Sione Fainu?

SJ Any wraps on Sione Fainu?

He was a big backrower last year,brought from out west.Looks like he is being moved to the front row,he did not standout last year,but has obviously been given a shot up front...

I think Ollie’s mum was a rep surf lifesaver at queenscliff and top water polo player
