Not sure why you think Kiraz is a top winger? He had a couple of good games and a lot of average games last year, as did most of the squad.
A centre he's not, he can't pass, but as a winger he lacks the pace of Wilson. Sure he tries hard, but do you get a FG spot for trying hard?
Im not sure if you know but the kid played with a fractured back after his injury which was never picked up . Was an absolute beast prior to that injury .
He’s a top class winger .

Stress fractures in his lower back, a busted knee, etc. King played through numerous injuries too.

I think its pretty set only possibility maybe 10-20% chance of Taafe getting dropped for Xerri, with Crichton FB.
I think the topic of Crichton at fullback conversation has glossed over the fact he clearly isn’t 100% fit.

The fact he only played 20 minutes in a trial is a bit alarming.

He is clearly still carrying his quad problem. Which totally rules any chance of him playing fullback with the extra work in the short term for me.

Because he can't draw and pass while running and set his winger free
Plus he’s very good at defending the bomb at wing. I think that skill far outweighs him defending at Center considering Xerri has the potential to be a high class centre once he gets back up to speed.

That photo Xerri is with the reserves Sexton and Skelton which assumes the backline predictably will be

Taffe
Wilson, Fox
Critta, Kiraz
Burton
Hutchinson

The pack prob looks like this
King Reed Faamausili
Kiks, Preston
Salmon

Bench
Hughes
Curran
Mann
Morrin

Disappointing. There is zero upside to playing Hutchinson over Sexton.

Disappointed if xerri isn’t picked feel he should be based on trials personally. Big body and didn’t key us down in defence or attack.

If he can keep improving longterm he is the centre with Critta and therefor moves kiraz back to wing so just don’t get it personally.
