Just searched this team up and its insane that 8 of the players in this team are playing rugby professionally. 4 in Union and 4 in League Mack Mason - Waratahs Liam Wright - Reds Angus Scott-Young - Reds Harley Fox - Connacht Rugby (Ireland) Izaia Perese - Played for Reds now switched to League trying to get a role in the Broncos Jaydyn Sua - Broncos Brodie Croft - Storms Kalyn Ponga - Knights
Billy McCormick what are you talking about this was a school team. Even for a school team for that many people able to get professional contracts it’s still phenomenal.
Wow....this video shows that this kid has great attacking talent from set and broken play.....it will be very interesting to see how he develops as he grows up over the next 3-4 years and puts on muscle bulk. He has a great step, speed hands and pass...and his vision and backing up anticipation is awesome. from that video alone I have to say he is one of the best attacking junior footballers I have seen in 40 years Without having seen his defense though I can't comment on that side of his game .
Mean Highbury Mean!!! Played touch footy and League against this fullas uncles back in the day. Watched Kalyn play for QLD age grade up here in Darwin, he made the Aussie team that year. Good luck for the future bro, Highbury for life! Na te Lind whanau o Darwin.
Reminds me of Nehe milner-skudder the way he's able to beat a person with footwork, hope he has the unselfishness and brain of NMS to put others into space.
This guy is gonna be unreal when he grows up, good luck to him and his family. I wanna see this man playing origin one day. I feel like he would also suit the New Castle Knights playing style amazingly.
He will be the best fullback to ever play the game and if he stays injury free I think he is a big chance of taking the title off Cameron Smith's all time point scoring record in 10 or so years time. Absolute gem of a player.
He won’t be a better fullback than Billy Slater. Slater score 194 tries and would most likely have become the all time leading try scorer if he didn’t lose a few seasons through shoulder reconstruction
@@ronanrogers4127 I think he will shit all over Billy Slater in all aspects of the game. I think he will end up being put in the number 6 jumper to be honest but I'd love to see him stay at fullback...It's been a long time since the backbone of a footy team has been the fullback.
@@johnathancnah5121 I agree I'd love to see him stay at fullback but I think as he grows they will do the same they did with Lockyer and put him in the middle...either way I think he is a natural footballer and wherever he plays he will kill it.
That's why they should both start at National Provincial level for Canterbury, then onto the Crusaders. Let them sit under the learning tree and emerse themselves into a winning culture. Don't be like Benji Marshall and sign for the crappy Blues and go straight into Super Rugby 😂 and that's coming from a staunch Hurricanes supporter. Benji should've went to the Crusaders aswell and learnt from the likes of McCaw and Dan Carter. Oh well
Both still young enough to have a crack!!! Next thing, they're earning millions playing a more global sport in Europe or Japan comparative to Rugby league. Meh!! Go the Warriors 💪😭
Chump change compared to what Charles Piutau, Matt Giteau and others are getting. Plus it ain't about the money!! It's the allure of the Black Jersey 💪🖤 and once you've worn a Black Jersey your value on the market goes up🤷♂️
Ponga just signed at 3.5million 4 year deal with Newcastle Knights. He is only 18, that is huge money for someone his age. Lets hope he lives up to all the expectations.
Another great talent wasting away in NRL. Take nothing away from the quality of that comp, just would be so awesome to see him on a proper world stage at a Rugby World Cup.
Fantastic he chose rugby league over rugby one day he will win a premiership with the Newcastle knights he so very talented and gifted as as a player I really hope the dolphins can sign him up with Wayne bennet as coach he could take his game to a higher level
He's eyeing up the ABs at some stage,, should have heard the NRL go off at union,, about player poaching,,had to laugh,,I watched so clip on Aus league show,,🤭😂
Tyrone W No there's certainly talented players but the game is a lot more one dimensional than Union. Being highly skilled has a greater impact in Union.
Lucius Bones The passage of play is more fluid. The referees have been particularly bad these past few years and have slowed it down but when they ball is in hand it's a lot more free flowing than League.
Just searched this team up and its insane that 8 of the players in this team are playing rugby professionally. 4 in Union and 4 in League
Mack Mason - Waratahs
Liam Wright - Reds
Angus Scott-Young - Reds
Harley Fox - Connacht Rugby (Ireland)
Izaia Perese - Played for Reds now switched to League trying to get a role in the Broncos
Jaydyn Sua - Broncos
Brodie Croft - Storms
Kalyn Ponga - Knights
Loarrr they go to a rugby school that’s who there playing for and coaches watch these games cause there the best in there age at rugby in NSW
Billy McCormick what are you talking about this was a school team. Even for a school team for that many people able to get professional contracts it’s still phenomenal.
Loarrr its a rugby school team their only select people they think have talent and that school is one of the better schools for rugby
Billy McCormick no shit Sherlock I know that they are an elite rugby school. So you’re implying they produce 8 professional players every year?
Yeh dude they beat a team 97-0 I watched the game cause I go to the same school he went to before he moved to North Queensland
Wow....this video shows that this kid has great attacking talent from set and broken play.....it will be very interesting to see how he develops as he grows up over the next 3-4 years and puts on muscle bulk.

Paul EJ Well, what do you think after State of Origin?
He is qld only hope at stopping this young hungry nsw team, ponga and this young locky lewis. M
..what do you think after this state of origin lol
look at em gi now hat m8 churr churr
look at em go now hay mate , churr churr fukn fat finger mussin cant
You’re video got mentioned in the origin pregame! Congratulations
Yeah when Kayln Ponga was telling his story
@MUFC irrelevant, but if u feel the need to get such a point across do so.
@MUFC ummmm no one cares
MUFC bro stfu no body asked soccer is a lot more pussy than rugby aswell
@@qerstinr68 I'm not disagreeing with ya but look up "German soccer player leg cut" and his whole upper leg is just. Bad.
i was at the first game in this video. WOW 8 years ago! been watching kalyn kill it ever since. crazy how life evolves
Ikr
And now he is a much valued and loved player of the Newcastle Knights.
@J G what on earth has soccer got to do with Kalyn Ponga?
Thurston will be putting this kid through gaps all day
@@user-er4yw4uh7m The comment is four years ago, when he was contracted to the Cowboys. You lemon.
LMAO
Nick Robinson LEMON LMAO
Ooooffff.
@@bronsannoble8043 don’t take the Lord’s name in vain, please repent for it’s a sin
Proud to be a Churchie Old Boy, this kid will be the next big thing, guarantee it
Yes he is
Nudgie bruz. all the way.
Called it
reminds me of George Rose for the Dragons
Union vs League me too hes got the size and the footwork, he just needs some better speed and he might even be better than George Rose.
Running style of David Peachey.
Footwork skills are sub par to the main man george rose but he is close
omg George Rose is fat! DONT COMPARE
😭
would be awesome to see this kid play in Origin!!!!
nimitz4114 your dream came true.
Daily Skriptchaz he did lol
He's playing tonight lol
Did you come because of this vid on tv
2019
2:12 That play was so clean🤯
So clean
Favourite player and now he got the man of the match for game 3 . Legend
The future of this kid is amazing!
Look how far his come 👏👏
Easily the best highlight reel 🔥
Certainly showed this skill last night in state of o
5 years later and I’m still watching this. Wonder what his story would’ve been like if he was here in nz
he was born here sheep shagger
this guy is pretty good, i feel like he would have a bright future in the nrl
Barring injury , Ponga could become one of the greats of the game, i have been following him closely .
Mean Highbury Mean!!! Played touch footy and League against this fullas uncles back in the day. Watched Kalyn play for QLD age grade up here in Darwin, he made the Aussie team that year. Good luck for the future bro, Highbury for life! Na te Lind whanau o Darwin.
You are talent buddy remember playing touch rugby with ya at chill out. still ripping
Reminds me of Nehe milner-skudder the way he's able to beat a person with footwork, hope he has the unselfishness and brain of NMS to put others into space.
Greatest gps player edit ever
Literally 4 minutes of ponga goose stepping everyone. Kids a beast.
Your a legend for making someones career props to you 👏
Wicked talent and already one of the fastest in league imo
This guy is gonna be unreal when he grows up, good luck to him and his family. I wanna see this man playing origin one day. I feel like he would also suit the New Castle Knights playing style amazingly.
🤓
Kalyn Ponga is a proud Queenslander and will play many origins for his state ;)
already locked up with the kiwis cuz
+Frances Wright no hes not buddy....
y
Born in Western Australia so everyone here is wrong.
Its not where your born in SOO, its where you played your first Club footy.
The epileptic fit editing makes this watchable for about 3 seconds.
These edits are really good very underrated RUclipsr
Their halfback is amazing(coming from a halfback) 😱
This kid might go okay when he grows up!!
He will be the best fullback to ever play the game and if he stays injury free I think he is a big chance of taking the title off Cameron Smith's all time point scoring record in 10 or so years time. Absolute gem of a player.

Fuckthesystem 88 I reckon he should stay at fullback. He played in the halves for maoris and was pretty quiet.

Kalyn Ponga and Roger Tuivasa Sheck for the ABs at the 2023 World Cup is gonna be FIRE🔥
That's why they should both start at National Provincial level for Canterbury, then onto the Crusaders. Let them sit under the learning tree and emerse themselves into a winning culture.

Soccer, NBA, Gridiron and other sports are the "real" money makers but gotta love League and Union 👌
Not as Cool as your name though cuz🤙
Nice Vid. Looks like a young Dagg.
Izzy dagg, my fav
Thank goodness you
How did Australian Rugby lose him to League? We needs more play makers like him. I hope he comes back.
$$$$$
He was a league player in Mackay for a few years before this video
@2:06 BRUUUUUUUUUH
If Shaun johnson and jarryd hayne had a kid.. This would be him..
You mean Shaun Johnson and Benji Marshall? lol
Put some Matty bowen in there too
Shaun Johnson? Nah he only shows up for three or four games a year.
@Toxicpot76 I'm referring to their playing styles. Not how consistent they are...
That's not fair on this guy. He will be way better. Afterall he's used to being tackled not a one handed tap.
good on him for making the queensland team last weekend very talented
Ponga just signed at 3.5million 4 year deal with Newcastle Knights. He is only 18, that is huge money for someone his age. Lets hope he lives up to all the expectations.
This guy has got a lot of talent. Be great to see him playing professionally
He’s now professional player in the NRL
Amazing step and great video
I'm your biggest fan💪💪💪
Me-ann George wrong I am I play rugby league and play like a young version of him
Another great talent wasting away in NRL. Take nothing away from the quality of that comp, just would be so awesome to see him on a proper world stage at a Rugby World Cup.
My favourite player ever 👍
Bucket loads of attacking skill and awareness! But where's the defense?
Tony Ward at the end
Fantastic he chose rugby league over rugby one day he will win a premiership with the Newcastle knights he so very talented and gifted as as a player I really hope the dolphins can sign him up with Wayne bennet as coach he could take his game to a higher level
Wow this kids great! He should be in the NRL
He should
I legit played with him we were buddies in anglican Church Grammar School, a.k.a. Churchie
Reminds me of Shaun Johnson
That's a bit harsh!
Crazy thing is he's doing exactly the same thing in the NRL now
kayln ponga what a legend he will be
who else is here from the origin 2 pregame
me
Me haha
Me
Me LOL
origin now
kaylen ponga is the best I think he's the best nrl player in the world cause his steps are amazing
On the plus side, NSW only have to wait another 15 years or so before he retires so they can win an origin series again!
Connor Duke ummm as you were saying what happened this year
Connor Duke not this year buddy
This aged bad
@@yousefghazaoui3580 I throw out such exaggerated comments precisely to entice such reactions as these years later.
Snapping ankles since day one.
Sooooooo CLEAN bro So CleAn
Bruh your insane keep it up I will be coming to your games I live in townsville
Same. Can't wait for him to come up north
U gotta be a special kind of talent to know when and how move and step before/as u getting the ball to beat ur defender... 2:02
1:43 great tackle bro good execution just a bit..... abstract
Young fulla reaping the rewards now, good on you boy
Great Vid
Man this guy is from where I live he has turned out amazing #mackayrep
Lesssggooo that's me on Saturday
A superstar he is..Shot Kaylyn Ponga🔥😎
Watch Shaun johnsons touch highlights in 2008/2009 I would say he would be his age or younger at that time :D
kalyn ponga is the god at the NRL
awesome talent that white headgear will be a trademark in the near future
Great talent! Pity he didn't stay with Union. One question can he step of his left side?
Check 1:35
Good player looks like he could make it to professional rugby one day.
He's eyeing up the ABs at some stage,, should have heard the NRL go off at union,, about player poaching,,had to laugh,,I watched so clip on Aus league show,,🤭😂
5 years later heʻs playing in the NRL
Exactly what the wallaby needs but too bad rugby League got him all the best Champs
He’ll play for the all blacks any way lad only reason he plays for Australia is so he eligible for origin n there better at league
UN GENIO !!!
Kalyn ponga THE GOAT
BRODIE CROFT IS THERE ASWELL AND YOU SEE NO ONE COMPLEMENTING HIM?!?!? HE'S THE MELBOURNE STORM STARTING NO.7! SHOW SOME RESPECT
What a goat! Yes KP
Churchie Boy For Lift BABY
This guy is beast
This guy is famous
Quiero ver mas vídeos de Kalyn y su Steps, es increible este pibe.
a new superstar
What a player
Lol the nb 3 at 1:44 is a so good tackler
Aust,Nz,&S.A...only place you'll see white boys do rugbysteps like islanders..
K.Ponga,future NRL star..
well KP is islander so,
War_Monster776 nah hes maori and his family come from palmerston north his whole family are mean as at rugby league like i mean real talent
yea he used to live in mackay and we were pretty close
That’s a Maori step
@@FREE_SKAPA9 ponga is only 1/4 maori
This video probably got him to NRL
What a great player go you Queensland lander
Brodie Croft and Kalyn Ponga
He’s playing a much better sport now 👌👌
Kayln ponga is a good player but it would be cool to see him play union
he'll dominate
He steps so good everyone runs into each other
This was the video to get ponga a contract with cowboys
LETS GO
Fun Fact: This Video Made Ponga go to the NQL cowboys
Kalyn Monster
Talent like that shouldn't be wasted on League bro. Fulfill the contract and then get in contact with a Super Rugby team.
So you're saying that League players are less talented than Union players?
Tyrone W No there's certainly talented players but the game is a lot more one dimensional than Union. Being highly skilled has a greater impact in Union.
***** At lower levels Union can be kind of ugly but with high skill levels it can be a very very fluid game to watch.
Ruby Doobie There's hardly been a very fluid game in this Rugby Championship so far...
Lucius Bones The passage of play is more fluid. The referees have been particularly bad these past few years and have slowed it down but when they ball is in hand it's a lot more free flowing than League.
glad he signed with the knights . we need someone good
This guy reminds of Quade Cooper
but he passes
Shame he didn't stick with Union. The Wallabies could do with him right now!
***** rumbuk
You're*
rumbuk
***** oooh. Good one. You're a savage.
You're* haha thats true lol
I’m telling you now 4-5 years there is going to be a kid called Winston and he will be ponga 2.0
his running style reminds me of q.c or the step i should say
