    One front rower that I expect will be in line to start in Round One of the 2019 Hastings Deering’s Colts competition for Burleigh is Logan Cootes who in 2018 was a try scoring machine in the Gold Coast Rugby League U19 competition for the Mudgeeraba Redbacks.

    Logan Cootes finished as the GCRL U19 competitions leading try scorer with fourteen tries from just fifteen matches. Logan Cootes scored an impressive five doubles in 2018 with those doubles coming against Runaway Bay, Bilambil, Burleigh, Beaudesert and Helensvale. Logan Cootes also scored in matches against Ormeau, Southport, Helensvale and Bilambil.

    Earlier in 2018 Logan Cootes was part of the Burleigh Bears MM Cup side but was not involved in any matches.

    In 2017 Logan Cootes played in the MM Cup competition for the Tweed Heads Seagulls as well as for the Mudgeeraba Redbacks in the GCJRL U17 Division One competition.

    For Tweed Heads in the 2017 MM Cup competition, Logan Cootes played in five of the six matches. Logan Cootes started the first two rounds from the interchange bench before breaking into the starting line-up in Round Three against the eventual MM Cup Champions the Wester Mustangs. Logan Cootes was also in the starting line-up in Rounds Six and Seven before missing Round Eight. Round Seven saw Logan Cootes cross for his only try of the 2017 MM Cup competition when he scored against the North’s Devils.

    For the Mudgeeraba Redbacks in the U17 Division One competition on 2017, Logan Cootes played in nine matches, scoring five tries, including doubles in consecutive matches in June against Bilambil and Runaway Bay and in late July, Logan Cootes also scored against Runaway Bay again.

    Logan Cootes also played for Coombabah State High School in the Super Six and GIO Cup School boy competitions in 2017.

    Logan Cootes in earlier seasons has played for Titans Development squads including at the U16 level against Samoa at Pizzey Park

    NRL teams are always looking to players in the front row who make ground in the centre of the ruck and the Titans have a number of extremely talented players in their TEDS program that fit that bill.

    Included in that number are Jack Cullen, Brody Smitka, recent signing Nicholas Hilton, Sam and Daniel Shannon, Tristian Powell and Luke Maiden to name just a few

    Very interesting to see star junior rugby league player Travis Turnbull back in Toowoomba after a season with the Brisbane Broncos including playing an NRL trial from the bench in 2018 and an interrupted season with Redcliffe in the U20 Hastings Deering’s Colts competition. It should be noted that Travis Turnbull is Colts eligible this season as well.

    His Toowoomba return to his junior club Toowoomba Valleys sees him selected in the Toowoomba Clydesdales Representative side for their upcoming match against Brisbane Wests.

    Travis Turnbull started Round One of the 2018 Colts competition for Redcliffe at fullback against Souths Logan, but then as a result of injury did not return to the Redcliffe side until Round Thirteen when he came off the bench against Tweed Heads. Travis Turnbull also started from the bench in Rounds Fourteen and Sixteen against Norths and Wynnum and in Rounds Seventeen and Eighteen started at fullback against the Western Mustangs and Burleigh Bears.

    In 2017 Travis Turnbull was as close to unstoppable as you could get in the Toowoomba Rugby League U18 and First Grade competitions for Toowoomba Valleys and in the Hutchies A Grade competition scored a staggering 80 points from just five matches, including scoring twenty Four points against Brothers Toowoomba in early July.

    In 2017 Travis Turnbull was a key member of the Western Mustangs U18 MM Cup side that won the competition.

    2017 also saw Travis Turnbull start at fullback for the Queensland U18 side, scoring a try and kicking four conversions as the maroons suffered a one point loss.

    Team mates that night included Titans NRL hopefuls Kea Pere and Tremain Spry.

    The former Toowoomba Valleys U15 captain and St Gregory’s College student also represented Queensland at the U16 level in 2015 when he started the annual interstate match at half, scoring a try and kicking a conversion. Travis Turnbull has also represented the Queensland Indigenous U16 side as well as numerous Toowoomba and Mustangs representative sides.

    One of the key reasons for success on a rugby league field is down to how the team’s playmakers are able to perform.

    Currently in the Titans TEDS program are a number of young men who are displaying the ability to lead and direct their teams around the field including Thomas Weaver, Ryan Rivett, Kel Sheather, Brodyn Gudgeon and Harvey Moase amongst others

    Cudgen Hornets centre Keegan Pace has recently linked with the Titans for their match against a Newcastle Knights select U16 side in Coffs Harbour.

    Late in 2018 Keegan Pace was selected in the Northern Rivers Titans U16 side for the 2019 Andrew Johns Cup competition. Fellow Titans linked players in the Northern Rivers Titans U16 side are Bailey Cox, Jack Cullen, Ryan Foran, Byron Jones, Riley Lack, Thomas Weaver and Rowan Mansfield.

    In late 2018 the PBC student represented Group 18 in the U15 age group at the New South Wales Country Age Championships, starting all three of their matches against Groups 21, Two and Four in the centres.

    After the completion of the 2018 season Keegan Pace and fellow Group 18 U15 team mates headed overseas to play in the Battlefield Challenge to commemorate the 100 year anniversary of the end of World War I, a competition that the side won including victories against Emory Moor 12 – 6 and Leigh East 18 – 12.

    In a warm up match in England prior to the Tournament they defeated a Hemel Stags U16 side and post the Tournament defeated French side Aude Cathare. A number of other Titans players will also be involved in the tour including Tom Weaver, Jack Cullen, Ryan Foran, Byron Jones and Bailey Cox.

    Keegan Pace also represented Group 18 in 2017 on that occasion in the U14 age group and scored against Newcastle in one of his three matches in those Championships

    Great decision by the Titans to bring in Ezra Howe as the Recruitment Manager. Things continue to get better and better on the junior development front.
