Mario, fyi,
from memory, Chris Sykes was a promising Roosters lower grader in the mid
90's who was diagnosed with leukemia or cancer and sadly passed away.
In his honour the club dedicates the best up 'n' comer junior representative.
Henare Wells from Keebra Park High scored plenty of tries in the SG Ball team this year. This year he also represented his school in Rugby - something Keebra Park have never played before, and surprisingly they won the Australian title. Henare is built like a whippet and has speed to burn .
He should play U20's in 2011 at either fullback or wing.....he's one to watch.

Thanks Gman, i was not sure if Chris was an ex player or not.

Clubman of the year: Braith Anasta

Was there an award given out last year?

Clubman of the year: Braith Anasta

Sorry but that award should have gone to Sammy Perrett. The fact his kid and missus were in hospiatal for a large portion of the year yet Sam still trained and played the way he did is a testiment to his dedication to the club and team.

Chook.

[Vasco]

Was there an award given out last year?

A wooden spoon.

[Rooster_6]

Sorry, Fitzy won it last year...

[Guest]

Pearce won it two years ago from memory.

Fitzy won it last year - when really Sammy deserved it more.

And how did carney not win it this year?

Whoever choses the winner of this award must be as blind as the referees

IMO

carney by streets ahead of Myles then Skd then Pearce

SKD showed major improvement, but aside from his period running a bit injured, Pearcey was far more consistant and influential than Skid.
