Melbourne Rebels Super 15: Recruitment

[TOCC]

Yeah agreed Shasta, was tempted to put him down, just need some further knowledge on his physical state. Certainly deserves a crack if fit, Junior and Troy possibly fall into that category as well and a shame that Luke McLean has now played for Italy as he has certainly proven he has what it takes, a miss by Force recruitment. I recall Daniel Roach hitting Schoolboys with some fan fare but didn't get signed long term, not sure what happened there. I think the Reds had him, maybe got caught out by the clean up and then the other rosters were full?

daniel roach turned his back on a Waratahs academy position to sign with Cronulla in the NRL, he was forced out of league the following year when they introduced the new U20 comp, he was 3months to old for U20's and not good enough for the starting side.

Karmas a beautiful thing at times

Depends on whether you think that turning down the Waratahs academy is bad thing.

I'd say he was cursed from the start being a 'Tah, then signing for NRL....anybody associated with both of those organisations is tainted!

Tell me about it. TOCC didn't say what he was up to recently but I'm guessing prison.

Nice write up though...

Played Jersey Flegg for Cronulla in 2007 but was too old to play in the new U-20's comp the following season. Went back to Northern Suburbs Rugby, then to Ulster as a development player.
