LEWIS Mitchell of Gerringong is one of a talented group of players forming part of the bright future of NSW Rugby Union.
Representing NSW PSSA All-Schools Rugby team in Adelaide last week, Mitchell a product of the Kiama Rugby Club, and two other representatives from the Illawarra, won all three games in convincing fashion, to regain the Phil Waugh Shield.
