2024 Pathways Sides

Jye Gray not playing NSW cup this weekend seems a missed opportunity...

Glad to see Mamouzelos and Le Blanc starting though.

Could mean two things.

They're giving him more game time due to limited minutes or he's back in reserve grade and Gray takes his spot on the bench

I didn’t really look at the side, but Mamouzelos playing could mean Jye will be on the bench. Although they could just be looking to give him more minutes.
 

NSW Cup Team to Play St George Illawarra​

  1. Bayleigh Bentley-Hape
  2. Leon Te Hau
  3. Brandon Webster-Mansfield
  4. Leonard Skelton
  5. Jude Saldanha
  6. Dion Teaupa
  7. Ryan Gray
  8. Liam Le Blanc
  9. Peter Mamouzelos (c)
  10. Yileen Gordon
  11. Maila Chanfoon
  12. Adam Christensen
  13. Chase Chapman
Interchange:

  1. Matthew French
  2. Gordon Whippy
  3. Tevita Taumoepenu
  4. Billy Tsikrikas
 
So Gordon Whippy is the guy we have signed from the Tigers.

Contracted with the Wests Tigers on a train and trial deal, Gordon Whippy has departed the club and found a new home in the process.

A Fijian international, Whippy was signed by the Tigers in the off-season but failed to break into the first-grade line-up and spent most of his time at the club in the NSW Cup.

However, he would only make three appearances - all coming off the interchange bench - playing 62 total minutes. During his stint on the field, he made two tackle busts, 56 post-contact metres, 24 tackle and 124 total running metres.

Compared to a young Sonny Bill Williams, Whippy has returned to the South Sydney Rabbitohs and made his NSW Cup debut for the Rabbitohs last weekend against the Blacktown Workers Sea Eagles.

Whippy has previously spent time in the Rabbitohs developmental system before playing with the Ipswich Jets in the QLD Cup for the 2023 season.

This is the third mid-season signing the Rabbitohs have made to their reserve grade team after picking up former NRL roster members Brandon Mansfield-Webster (St George Illawarra Dragons) and Tevita Taumoepenu (Parramatta Eels).

-------------------------------------------------------
So Brandon Webster-Mansfield started the year at the Wests Tigers, moved to St George Illawarra, and has now ended up here.
