St Mary’s first qualified for Langer in 2019 and has some greats as old boys – from Kangaroos’ captain of the 1920s Tom Gorman through to Johnathan Thurston.

But the Walker brothers, Jaiman and Ben Lowe, Ethan Lowe, Corey Paix (Broncos), Jake Simpkin (West Tigers), Xavier Va’a (Roosters) and Jordan Lipp (Cowboys) are also all old boys, highlighting more elite talent.

“It would mean a lot to our community both past and present (to remain in the Langer),’’ said coach and teacher ​Louis Reen.

“St Mary’s has a strong connection to the regions rugby league identity and the competition gives us the chance to access the strongest competition in the South East corner.

“We also recognise that to qualify in 2022 we need to be at our best. Mabel Park are a quickly developing powerhouse as seen in our junior competitions and they will be stronger in 2022 with the added maturity of their squad.’’
