ok, I have the squad lists for the Brumbies. Complicated format but let me get it up here roughly:
The main list is so far the 29 players we have listed here: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/forum/threads/5022-Oz-S15-amp-Academy-Squads-2011
There is a two tiered academy system:
Tier One:
A.Hegarty, Jonno Owen, Liam Winton, Jesse Parahi (7's), Ita Vaea, Lyndsay Crook, Robbie Coleman, Clint Sills, Shaun Foley (7's).
Tier Two:
Hugh Roach, Rory Walton, Sam Carter, Tom Boidon, Joel Luani, Nick Stirzacker, Dion Tuamata, Jesse Mogg, Cam Crawford.
Now Henry Vanderglas isn't there, but I know he has a 7s contract, but I still thought he would've fitted in somewhere. It's an interesting document I've got. Also lists a few trialists including the likes of:
Bevu Tiquiri, John Grant, Nikky Price (who apparently has a 7s contract), Greg Jeloudev, Chris Satiu, Tim Buchanan, Brett Stapleton, Chris Nasiganiyavi, Matt Garland, Nigel Genia, Steve Cummins.
OK now that we are another month down the track, how are all these new additions settleing into the Brumbies system? There are quite a few mentioned above who are young and inexperienced, how are they handling the pace?
Particularly the ones direct from schools. Crooks, Stirzacker, Roach, the other schools half back (name escapes but a local ACT boy), Holland et al.
Any feedback?
