No suprise. Always rated Tansey though. In and out of the Leeds team. Hopefully he will come back a better player in 2 years time even if he only ever turns out for Newtown.

Doesn't say much if he learns more playing for a NSW cup side compared to SL

He wasn't good enough to make a full strength Leeds side so if he does make the Roosters side it also says much about the NRL or the Roosters?

Two years training with a NRL club should improve his game not the time spent playing in the NSW cup

THEY have totalled 492 NRL games between them, two are Test players - and they are coached by one of rugby league's legends. But if you want to see these guys play this weekend, forget the NRL and show up at Henson Park tomorrow. Bankstown City will send out a team of NRL stars side for their NSW Cup match against the Newtown Jets. The line-up includes Danny Williams, Daniel Holdsworth, Matt Utai, Brent Crisp, Heka Nanai, Tim Winitana, Daryl Millard, Trent Cutler, Michael Sullivan, Danny Williams, Yileen Gordon, Fred Briggs, Charlie Leaeno and Nick Kouparitsas. Brisbane recruit Greg Eastwood is also a chance of playing, which would bring the internationals to three. And, of course, their coach Terry Lamb played 349 games in his spectacular career. But what about their rivals? "I don't have one player who has played an NRL game," Jets coach Greg Matterson said. "The Bulls have a good side, but those players probably don't want to be there. The challenge for them will be whether they can motivate themselves. If the Bulldogs get an injury, they have the back-up to handle it." Based on last weekend's performance against South Sydney, the Sydney Roosters' NRL team would struggle to overcome Bankstown. http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/s ... 50,00.html

That's one hell of a reserve team.

The Newtown coach Greg is Terry Matterson's (Cas) brother.

Sorry. Boring, but true.
