8. Vaughan
9. Cook
10. Thompson
11. Hetho
12. Tpj
13. Jackson
Thats a quality forward pack

TPJ prop, Vaughan bench and find another backrower.

He litterly stopped running because he wasn't tackled and was wondering what was going on.
Plenty of grunt in 22.

Please no JMK, I beg you mate lol

How good was he!!! I said it for a lot of weeks now he should be given a go at Second row.
the speed he has also was pretty deceiving. Has great pace for a big man.

yes he should i have said since earlier on in the season with his quick speed for a forward and his aggression he would make a great backrow with hm hitting holes at speed and aggression. This could certainly be better there.

Good to see he could play on the left but I'd have TPJ there next year and Hetho on the right. Then Jacko 13 and starting middles Thommo and Vaughan with Cook at hooker.

Just my opinion but I think our forward pack is set for next season. If Elliot gets the sack we need to be going after a top 7 or a 9. Outside backs, forwards are good to me. I don’t know what everyone else thinks

Spine is obviously a priority, but I'd still like a better forward in the pack.

Yeah for sure but for how things are now that pack is in the top 8 in the comp. for the last 4-5 years it’s been dead last. Our spine is with Burton still last.

Well we're not signing a hooker or fullback at this stage, halfback seems like the only position we might make a play for someone but I think it's unlikely considering what's on the market.

I reckon if cook is given a shot he will surprise a lot I rate him a lot. I would say he will be on par with someone like Brailey at the Sharks. Dufty I am not so sure about. 7 can be BBO who can have a break out year and we all know what Burton can do.

RFM and Stimson for Kikau?

 

[TwinTurbo]

I thought moving Hetherington to the second row permanently was on the agenda as soon as we signed TPJ and Vaughan. With Ava and Thompson with us for at least 2 more years, that's a pretty decent 4 man front rotation. Far superior to Ogden and Atoni who were disappointing this year. We do need at least one more prop to cover injuries and suspensions. I think Doorey and Hetherington are locks for the starting 2nd row positions, so one of RFM, Waddell or Stimson will need to play front row if/when required.

Doorey did an ACL...do we need another option as Stimson and Waddell are average? PS..i'm not that convinced on Doorey even if he was fit(though maybe would have been best of a fair bunch)or RFM goes straight in and we need another prop?

I didn't mention Patolo because he is still so young, but at the rate he is developing he may well be a regular by half season.

Doorey is young and hopefully he will recover from the ACL surgery in the shorter of the 6 to 9 months timeframe. Most likely won't be ready for season start but possibly not much after that.

i agree with a specialist hooker there

I haven't seen any of Cook but I assume he will get first shot at hooker, BBO/JMK will probably play off the bench. I still expect Jake to start next to Burton unless we sign someone else.
