Xerri is in every photo update. What is going to happen on here when Hayze gets first crack in the centres.
I think Xerri would have to brain it in pre season and trials to be starting round 1.

I imagine 4-6 weeks in Cup to get the feel back and that’s also what Gus has alluded to anytime he’s been asked.

If Perham plays centre in that time then so be it. He’s proven he can’t hold down a spot in FG so it won’t be long til he’s out anyway lol.

Agree, the only contentious backline position is fullback. Back 5 in round 1 will likely be Taaffe, Wilson, Critta, Kiraz and Fox (personally, I’d like to see Skelton in the centres and Kiraz/Wilson fight out a wing spot). Xerri almost certainly gets game time experience in Cup until CC see’s he’s ready.

Full strength for me would probably be

1. Taaffe
2. Kiraz
3. Crichton
4. Xerri
5. Addo-Carr
6. Burton
7. Sexton

My guess for RD 1

1. Crichton
2. Wilson
3. Kiraz
4. Burton
5. Addo-Carr
6. Hutchison
7. Sexton

Xerri is like a fly around JAC... always tailing him like Wilso was last year.
Perfect mentor to restore some confidence and Xerri must be keeping him honest with speed drills?

I think Tracey will be playing fullback
I've got:

Taffee

JAC

Crichton

Kiraz

Wilson

Burton

Sexton/ Hutchison

Knight

Mahoney

King

Kikau

Preston

Curran

Bench: Salmon Mann Patolo Sutton

No forward depth whatsoever. Morrin I don't think can play until R11 again. Then the rest of the utilities and depth singings crushing it in NSW Cup again.

As previously posted;

With Crichton at fullback and possibly Xerri as one centre, my guess is Tracey will be fighting for the other centre spot.

I don't mind an attacking line up of;

1 Crichton
2 JAC
3 Xerri
11 Kikau
12 Preston
4 Tracey
5 Kiraz

I don’t recognise half of these players lol. Who is the big dude covered in tats? Also Kurt Mann looks completely different to what I have seen when watching Dragons or Knights. We must have some special cameras.

We just have some special jerseys, everyone looks good in blue and white.
