Do you think Averillo could hold his own in defence against the bigger centres like Leilua or Olam

We have to try him there at least. He will stronger from the off season. Worst case scenario we put Hoppa at centre and Averillo to fullback

 

[CanterburybankstownBD]

No Meanie? I'm very surprised, he is one of our fastest players, I think he may do well in this new squad, with the new Coaches & Conditioners.

I've got him as our fullback with Averillo, I really like Meaney I think he's a quality footballer. I think he could add a bit more muscle to make him more effective.
I just find it hard to leave Okunbor out because he's got that x-factor. And DWZ, when in form is a great kick returner and he's a strong runner of the ball.
Atleast with have depth whoever we go with.

Napa is an intimidating force for other teams, he can turn a game with big hits. We just need him playing in form again.

Who knows,maybe a new coach,new systems,some quality around him,might bring out the best in him,here’s hoping.

 

[Sword]

It scares me that we still haven’t got an established hooker

 

[Rockdog]

If we were only to add Burton at this stage and know one else.
Fully fit/No suspensions.
Something like this for our Strongest team.
1. Averillo
2. Okunbor
3. Cotric
4. Hoppa
5. Meaney
6. Burton
7. Flanno
8. Hethrington
9. JMK
10. Thompson
11. Jackson
12. RFM
13. Elliott
14. Ogden
15. To’omoga/Atoni
16. Napa
17. S.Katoa
A couple of players left out that could easily be included.
18. Waddell
19. R Smith
20. C Smith
21. Doorey

 

[dogwhisperer]

1. Averillo/Meaney
2. Zelezniak (okunbor if he was fit)
3. Cotric
4. Hoppa
5. Smith (reunite him with hoppa)
6. Burton
7. Flanagan
8. Tolman (on a one year deal)
8. Ogden
9. King
10. Thompson
11. Jackson
12. RFM
13. Elliot

14. Hetherington
15. Napa
16. Toomaga
17. Waddell/Stimson (If you want to go big)
17. Katoa/Wakeman/BBO (if you want a utility)

we actually have some decent forwards come to think of it. So much depth players like Stimson will need to fight for a bench spot and britt dont make the cut at all (which is a good thing).

You’d hope averillo makes the transition to fullback because if we do get burton our halves are set for the year barring injury.

I thought I'll never see Tolman's name in our line up ever again. Please tell me there's 0.00% he'll get a one year deal. Please tell me you're just taking the piss, please tell me It's just a dream and no one on the kennel has him in their line up

 

[D0GMATIC]

1 Meaney
2 Smith
3 Cotric
4 Averillo
5 DWZ
6 Burton
7 Flanagan
8 Ogden
9 Katoa
10 Hetherington
11 Jackson
12 Stimson
13 Elliott
14 RFM
15 Wakeham
16 To’omaga
17 Waddell

Thompson and Okunbor would have been in If they were available.

After hearing Baz yesterday I’m even more sure this won’t be far off for round 1 based on injury and suspension

Under Barrett, with a full preseason hahaha.

Nah definitely gone. Stayed about 4 years too long. We used him as an impact forward instead of a workhorse for some reason. I’m sure Lynne Anderson or dean pay must have had him in their fantasy football team. Guy was getting 20 hit ups a game for a solid 130m lol
