No.

Unless we want a Newcastle style belting each week.

You can't pick faces in NYC and instantly expect first grade success.. huge difference.

Haha I don't think we'll go that bad.

I've seen Miller and Cleeland play lots and i think their ready for FG
I'm not sure Bergiman and Woolford are ready but i remember hearing that Woolford was promised a spot in the 17 when he signed so who knows.

Either way i just want some changes from 2016 and I'll be happy lol

 

[Spoonman84]

I'd be shocked if Cleeland is a starting half next year. He will be a bench player at most.

 

[BELMORE]

CLeeland will be a utility next year

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Fuck knows what Des is going to do with our forward roatation if we carry a utility...scary haha

 

[GrogDog]

I'm expecting same as the last 5 years or slightly worse!

 

[KLil]

Atleast we have some great depth next yr.. something Canberra and the sharks had in 2016

 

[no1bulldog]

I love how every year people try to squeeze every new signing in to the line up.......even funnier is that for 5 years we've on signed QLD Cup and reserve graders and they still try to get every new signing in to our first grade team

Depth??? the only depth we'll have next year is the hole the team will find themselves in lol

we'll have atleast 2 NSW Cup players stepping in to the backline (nothing special there to stand up either) there'll be a 3 NSW Cup back every Sunday and even more if we get injuries......seeing the Morris boys are starting to give chase stanley a run on that front we could have 5 NSW Cup player in the backline!

Our Bench is another week spot with few on there cementing a spot besides Kas let alone pushing for a starting spot.....again mainly fringe first graders

we only really have half a team (if that) and we have no cap space lolololol

 

[Moedogg]

Our backline looks okay if we can pickup a decent FB

Decent FB
BMOZ
JMOZ
HOPPA
Lee

BMOZ
JMOZ
HOPPA
Lee

Kennar will be in the top 5 starting backs.

It's just such a bloody shame Chase Stanley can't stay fit... as he would have fit in the backline perfectly for us.

I think the Nines side will tell us a bit about who might get a sniff (ditto trials).

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Decent FB
BMOZ
JMOZ
HOPPA
Lee

This will likely be our starting back 5 imo. Lee isn't a winger, if the club bought him to play wing then they are fucked. Such a slow backline...though it could potentially be a very powerful one if we actually play with some depth this year.

Hoppa
Bmoz
Jmoz
Lee
Kennar

 

[ALX25]

Trials should determine the make up of the team.
Most positions should be up for grabs.
If you're not 100% fit, you shouldn't be picked.

16.D'Rhys Miller
17.Josh Reynolds

18th man-Aiden Tolman

RFM would get smashed at 13, tackling is one of his worst traits.

Hoppa
Bmoz
Jmoz
Lee
Kennar

Yeah this is what I think as well. and you are right, all of these guys are slow apart from Bmoz, hopefully we can play a power game because none of these guys are agile or evasive

 

[BELMORE]

1. Hoppa
2. Bmoz
3. Jmoz
4. Lee
5. Kennar
6. Reynolds
7. Mbye
8. Graham
9. Lichaa
10. Tolman
11. Eastwood
12. Jackson
13. Klemmer

Interchange
14. Kasiano
15. RFM
16. Elliot
17. Cleeland

18. Perett
19. Fualalo

Is what i think Des will choose.

Surely not Elliot or Fualalo? Both can't defend to save their lives. RFM must play more minutes, as he will only get better.

For God's sake, not Hoppa at fullback. We need a full time player in that position.

 

[The Dogfather]

1. Brad Abbey
2. Brett Morris
3. Josh Morris
4. Will Hopoate
5. Brenko Lee/tyrone phillips
6. Josh Reynolds
7. Moses Mbye
8. Aiden Tolman
9. Michael Lichaa
10. James Graham
11. Josh Jackson
12. Greg Eastwood
13. David Klemmer

14. Sam Kasiano
15. Raymond Faitala-Mariner
16. Danny Fualalo
17. Josh Cleeland/Zac Woolford

I think des will go with something similar to this

Elliot needs time... he has a good mindset. He's very similar to Jacko both physically and mentally. Small mobile forwards. Honest players who arn't flashy but try their guts out.

Fualalo... I think I'm the only bloke on the kennel that rates him.

That team listed above isn't what I would select, it is what I think Des will though
