He'll be our 5/8

Think about it, how many centres do we have?

Tell me who our 5/8 will be?
I would be prepared to at least give him half a season in the hope he comes good ... no real idea of who would play 5/8 instead.

Critta, Xerri, Kiraz, Skelton (Gus thinks it could be his position)? Clark and Gabriel show promise.

I am looking more long term .... if he is not at 5/8 moving forward it would make the clubs plans a little vague in that area, as he was bought and extended to fill that role.

Let's hope KO can return from injury as good as gold.

Fullback. I said it when we signed him and I still think it's a role that suits him far better than 5/8....that is with the ball in hand.

Has a club ever had both their centres earning north of 825k each?
It would be the best club centres pairing since Mark McGaw and Andrew Ettinghausen…… but they never even played a grand final….and definitely weren’t on 1.6 million as a pair…..
