“Brad came to us as an U20s player from 2015 and played 22 games, which is every game this year,” commented Gardiner.

“Clayton Williams also came from Souths U20s and played 22 games at lock.”

“He stepped up and performed exceptionally well for a fella that isn’t that big in the middle and will be looking for bigger and better things for 2017.”

Halfback, Eli Levido had an outstanding season, claiming the most try assists and line breaks in the competition and was acknowledged by receiving two awards including the Best Back and Fans Player of the Year.

“He was the sixth highest points scorer in the NSW cup which is a fantastic achievement for a rookie,

“Eli played 20 games this season, and topped try assists and line break assists in the competition and really led the team around the field obviously being a halfback.

“He has re-signed for next year and we look to continue that pathway to bigger and better things in 2017.”
