I think you can add Jared Haywood to the first category, think he might debut next season. Phoenix Godinet another obvious one who is likely to make a debut 26 or 27. Josese Lanyon and Tino Tavana are others to watch. And a few smokies who could get there by 2027 are Riley Oitmann, Max Taotua, Harry Delaney & Brendan Naicori. There are others but I think that’s a healthy list for now.

Sounds promising

After spending last season in the Under-19s SG Ball Cup competition with the Balmain Tigers, Zero Tackle understands that forward Cooper Young has decided to take his talents to the Dragons on a two-year deal for the 2026 and 2027 seasons.
A graduate of Ipswich State High School, Young will play for the St George Dragons in the upcoming SG Ball Cup as the club looks to move off the bottom of the ladder and once again be in finals contention.
Already racking up representative honours such as being named in the 2024 Under-17s QLD City team, he is a strong performer on both ends of the field and is normally seen playing either in the front row or at lock.

Well done Phoenix Godinet. A very cool video and great attitude to do well himself and to see the younger kids learn too. Focussed on now and future of WT.
