Got see some of the young guys kick on in 1st grade this year and own a jersey.
Wakeham, Harper, To'omaga, Ogden, Okunbur, Meaney, Chrichton, Averillo, Tass...
Please give us something!

After watching Hoppa and Smith on the right in the 4 and 5 jerseys for most of last season, how does this bloke get his lineup so wrong to put them in the 2 and 3? Meaney played in 2 for much of last season, why does this guy have him wearing 5? Holland last wore 4 in 2018. Credibility. Lost.

He'll get RSI from continuously putting $20's in the hokies at the Storey Bridge Hotel
Shame he’s not coming - he’d feed most of his salary back into the Canterbury Leagues pokies and we’d get a big chunk of it back. Sage investment.

I really don’t understand why Holland keeps getting mentioned, surely someone better.

Also if they don’t play Wakeham, he will walk.

Start him in the 6, put 10kg on Lewis and move him to 13.

Find or buy a new 7.

Toomaga the 8, tolman to bench.

See how king goes at 9 or we need to go shopping there as well.
Mate i think holland played okay . Montoya played shit

Quite like this lineup. The only thing I’d swap would be Jacko to lock and either RFM or Stimson to the back-row. The utility bench spot is a tough one, halves or hooker backup? Interesting to see if JMK can play 80min in 2020. No Elliott which I have no issue with, I’m just not sure how real that is for Deano.

Its taken 2 years for someone to finally put up the correct side with what we have.
That side getting picked will never come to the brains of our trusty staff though.

Montoya, Ogden, Crichton, Harper and Holland are the players that (for me) will be in kinda holding patterns in 2020. Players that won't quite make first grade fulltime and will float between.

With exception of Harper (and maybe Crichton) all will need breakout seasons to be retained.

I hope you’re wrong about Ogden. We need him and RFM to tear it up for our pack to be competing with the good sides next year.
