    In the backs Jaxson Paulo, Ioane Seuili, Kea Pere and Will Evans amongst others are also not far away
    Mate for mine Juwan Compain has a bit of growing to do but a tough competitor none the less

    The Burleigh Bears 2019 MM Cup forward looks a powerful unit with one likely member of the forward pack being James Pere.

    The powerhouse young forward was outstanding this season both in club rugby league and school boy rugby, playing for the TSS U16A side in the GPS rugby competition.

    Even though he was U16 eligible in 2018 James Pere played the 2018 GCRL season in the U17 Division Two competition with Coomera playing in nine matches including the U17 Division Two Finals series.

    In Week Two of the U17 Division Two finals James Pere started in the centres and scored for Coomera as they went down 28 – 16 to Currumbin.

    In the Preliminary Final James Pere scored a try after starting in the centres as Coomera qualified for the Grand Final on the back of a 62 – 4 victory over Jimboomba.

    In the U17 Division Two Grand Final James Pere started in the centres as Coomera went down 24 – 18 to Currumbin.

    In addition to his two finals tries, James Pere scored ten in the U17 Division Two regular season competition. James Pere scored a hat trick against Jimboomba, doubles against Currumbin in two separate matches and Jimboomba and also scored against Beaudesert.

    Early in the 2018 season James Pere represented Gold Coast Vikings Yellow in the South East Queensland U16 pre-season Challenge.

    For the TSS U16A side this season James Pere played in seven matches missing only Round Two as a result of an injury suffered in Round One against Churchie. James Pere started all seven of his matches at No. 8.

    James Pere scored three GPS U16A tries in 2018, scoring in Round Four against Brisbane Grammar School, Round Seven as a result of a pick and drive against Ipswich Grammar School and Round Nine against Churchie.

    Prior to the GPS U16A season proper James Pere started in six of the U16A TSS trial matches starting at No. 8 in five and on the bench in the other which was against Ipswich Grammar School. Trial matches that James Pere played in included matches against Riverview College (Sydney), Somerset College (Gold Coast) and Ambrose Treacy College (Sunshine Coast).

    Prior to heading to TSS James Pere attended Keebra Park and 2016 represented the Gold Coast Vikings at the U14 level and was also selected in one of the South East Queensland U14 representative sides.

    In 2016 James Pere was a dominant player for Keebra in the U14 Hancock Cup school boy competition, including scoring a hat trick in a match against Marsden State High School where in the first half he was almost unstoppable running off 2018 Queensland U16 representative Reece Walsh.

    James Pere also scored a hat trick the week prior as well against Wavell. After being down 12 – 0 early to Wavell James Pere crashed over to score Keebra’s first try and then produced two more barnstorming runs in the second half to help Keebra Park close out the game 30 – 18. James Pere understandably was also awarded the man of the match honours in that game.

    James Pere also represented the Vikings and South East Queensland at the U13 level in 2015.

    Titans linked local young fullback Jaiden West is another talented player who will be looking to get playing time in the 2019 MM Cup competition with the Tweed Heads Seagulls.

    Jaiden West is from the Nerang Roosters club for whom he played the 2018 season with in the U16 Division One competition and started at fullback in the GCRL U16 Division One Grand Final as Nerang defeated Currumbin 24 – 8.

    Jaiden West also attends PBC as part of their Rugby league Excellence Program and was a standout for PBC in their two point Walters Cup victory over Keebra Park at Pizzey Park earlier this season. That night he terrorised the Keebra Park defence especially the right side.

    In Round One of the Gold Coast Rugby League U16 Division One competition, Jaiden West started at fullback in their 60 – 0 victory over Runaway Bay and crossed for one of the Roosters tries on the opening Friday night of the season.

    In total in the U16 Division One competition this season for Nerang Jaiden West played in nine matches including the finals series scoring three tries and kicking five goals to finish the season with 22 points.

    In addition to his Round One try Jaiden West scored mid-season against Runaway Bay, a match which also saw him kick his five goals, and he also scored in Nerang’s Major semi-final victory over Currumbin.

    In 2015 Jaiden West started on the wing for the Titans U13 development squad in a match against a Toowoomba U14 selection in the same year was part of the U13 Gold Coast Vikings representative squad and in 2014 represented South Coast at the U12 level in the Queensland Primary School tournament.

    Jaiden West did not get many opportunities on the wing for the development squad as the players inside him like Rixon Andrew, Damon Somerville and Matamatagi Ripley had a field day against the U14 Toowoomba representative selection, meaning the ball did not get out him as much as it usually would in a game. In saying that though he maintained his discipline and did not go chasing the ball but maintained his correct positioning throughout the course of the match.
