As the year's first Team List Tuesday dawns upon us, Round 1 every year brings forth shock selections, stars benched, and like every season - a host of rookies.
While many look at the young crop for the SuperCoach potential, the majority of us watch in anticipation to see what the next generation can deliver.
There's been some amazing rookies over the past few seasons, with the likes of Stephen Crichton and Harry Grant going from virtual unknowns to making the Origin squads in 2020. Every player on this list is yet to make their NRL debut, but you'll know their names soon enough.
5. Dean Ieremia
It's more rare than you'd think, Melbourne fielding a Victorian junior. However Ieremia is a special one, so much so Craig Bellamy is weighing up leaving out experienced backs George Jennings and Reimis Smith out of his side in order to hand Ieremia his NRL debut.
Suliasi Vunivalu is a massive hole to fill on the right edge, leaving Bellyache with a massive call to make. He reportedly sees Smith as more of a centre, leaving Ieremia to battle it out with Jennings and Isaac Lumelume for a spot.
Can anyone say “Trbojevic” ? All but everybody calls these boys Trbojevich. It is “vic” not “vich”
Correct pronunciation would sound like Tr (roll the R)-boy-ev-its, unless they have an accent on the c, like ฤ (tj) or ฤ (ch).
