Dunbar Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Oliver Gildart makes his NRL debut in round 1 and Dominic Young gets the nod on the wing for Newcastle. Very surprised to see that Ryan Sutton only makes the reserve bench for the Raiders. For me, he is miles better than Corey Horsburgh. George Burgess hasn't made the game squad for the Dragons. 1 1 "The history of the world is the history of the triumph of the heartless over the mindless." — Sir Humphrey Appleby.

Sutton has just agreed a 3-year deal with the Dogs for 2023. It may just be Ricky testing Sutton to see if he will get a good year out of him.

Seems a shame that it will be at the expense of Thompson leaving the Dogs however - would've been interesting to see them two play together. They still might, but everything seems to suggest Thompson will leave after this season - Wests or Dolphins most likely destinations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know wests were mentioned but Bennett may look at taking him after working with him internationally . May not be a bad thing for Thompson actually Edited March 8, 2022 by DavidM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowdesert Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 57 minutes ago, DavidM said: Yeh It could be a lucrative option for LT. Sutton comes in, LT goes to West’s on a 2 year deal with his wages paid at his agreed rate for 2023 and an uplift or even the same for 2024.

Scubby Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 The Knights definitely see potential in Dom Young. Named on the wing for Round 1. Could be a break through season for him if he gets a good run. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a break through season for him if he gets a good run. Hymel Hunt's knee injury ended up being worse than first thought so his timeline for return is now 12 weeks, as a result Dom should have that period to establish himself in the side without fear of being dropped which should help his confidence early on (we don't really have anyone below that to feasibly oust him). Unfortunately Bailey Hodgson is also out for at least 12 weeks, poor kid has had a terribly unlucky run down here so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunsletgreenandgold Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Thought Herbie Farnworth went well enough for the Broncos this morning. Really think he'll start to kick on now Brisbane appear to have a competitive side. Thomas Burgess was steady off the bench - I don't think we'll see him start many this season.

UTK Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Dom Young lives up to the hype in the Knights win over the Roosters, came up with some absolutely brilliant defensive plays on opposition winger Daniel Tupou and was a consistent threat in attack including a very high quality finish to seal the game. His best all-round game in the NRL so far and clearly demonstrated that he's worked very hard on his game during the off-season. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonNgog Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Gildart’s debut: lively in attack, but some very poor decisions in defence, obviously will improve with experience 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratman Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) Think Gildart has struggled with the physicality. Not a Brit but Hastings played well in the first half. Edited March 12, 2022 by bratman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunbar Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Gildart was solid enough. In the first half the Tigers had a number of overloads on his side and only executed on one as the edge forward took the ball too often. Gildart had one chance to release his winger and did. He showed a bit of decent footwork at times but he is noticeably smaller than many backs in the NRL. 1 "The history of the world is the history of the triumph of the heartless over the mindless." — Sir Humphrey Appleby.

He is a classy player but those carries out of defence were pretty meek. Made a poor defensive read too for the Storm's first try. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely outstanding It is obvious the Knights have loved what they see in training and around the organisation with Young. They have not held back giving him opportunities. He is fast and athletic and carries well out of defence. No Reece Lyne but exciting potential. Edited March 12, 2022 by Scubby 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
