BallPlayingProp Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 ROUND 1 TEAMS Brisbane v Melbourne Herbie Farnworth - at Norths Devils in Q Cup, scored twice last weekend. Andre Savelio - gone to Hull Canberra v Gold Coast John Bateman - named at 13 Josh Hodgson - starts at 9 Ryan Sutton - on the bench Elliot Whitehead - starts at second row Manly v Wests Trent Hodkinson - benched. Was expected to partner DCE. Likely a utility pivot this season. Souths v Roosters George Burgess - still banned Sam Burgess - starts at second row. Tom Burgess - starts at prop St George v N Qld James Graham - starts at prop Gareth Widdop - starts at FB Roosters v Souths Ryan Hall - still not fit Victor Radley - starts at 13 Wests v Manly Chris McQueen - named in the 21. doubt he'll play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert Prince Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 You will all be able to look out for Williams in the NRL next season. Wigan are becoming the youth development section of the NRL. I am wondering which hasbeen NRL half they will need to fill in the gap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattSantos Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Cant be bothered to look elsewhere; what position does Farnworth play? Radley at Easts is British? Bateman will go well in the middle.

I would say it is perfectly fine that he is eligible to play for each of these three countries.

These things are very personal and always individual.

Does anyone know anymore about his "English mum" cos the way it's worded in that article I saw,to me,it looks like its a step mum and not his maternal mum.. "I grew up in New Zealand but I wasn't raised by Kiwis, I was raised by an English woman and my dad is from Samoa so it is hard to pick. I don't really know what I am – I just call myself a human." Strange to say "raised by a English woman" OLDHAM RLFC the 8TH most successful team in british RL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree the wording is ambiguous but in the context of the point he was making it seems reasonable. He is saying that even though he was born and brought up in New Zealand the cultural influences of Samoa and England are there from his parents. No point saying (in this context) "I was raised by my mum" so it was either 'raised by an English woman' or 'raised by my mum who is English"... but it seems strange to say raised by your mum as that is usually a given. Wikipedia states that he has a Samoan father and English mother and as there is no reference to an extended family I assumed biological relationships. 1 "The history of the world is the history of the triumph of the heartless over the mindless." — Sir Humphrey Appleby.

BallPlayingProp Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Looked at Big League teamlists, there's also another Englishman: Luke George - Wilf's son and of a great couple of years with Huddersfield is at the CQ Capras in the Q Cup. That's where Dave Taylor is atm. Down the road at Mackay, Lloyd White (Welsh) and Alex Gerrard, both formerly Widnes are at the Cutters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
