Naden should end up on the wing but at this stage we're very thin, Okunbor as a starting winger is hardly something to be confident about when he still struggles with basic wing play. Burns as a centre would be okay but I wouldn't want him on the wing, Allan I don't even know what to think of anymore. We also need genuine power on the wing with JAC and Dufty being undersized.
Strong mail suggesting our next power winger, Nasheed, is still a year or two away…

Lume and Ok will do for 150k
I'm not a fan of Lumelume at this stage, good athlete but looks miles off being a reliable winger in our side. Okunbor still doesn't even know the basics of wing play but we need his size with our undersized back 3.

Strong team will play first 20mins . Both teams will do this .
Burns will play next trial still not 100%
Lumelume is overseas with his fathers passing

starting round 1 looks like will be burns and Naden in centres .
I’d much rather Naden on a wing than in the centres with his inability to beat a player 1on1.
Here’s hoping Paul Alomati has a cracking trial game .

Bulldogs: Star recruit Matt Dufty dons the Bulldogs jersey for the first time in Newcastle and he'll be joined by his former Dragons team-mate Paul Vaughan and former Bronco-turned-Panther Tevita Pangai junior. The other new faces are Reece Hoffman (Wests Tigers), Max King (Storm) and Josh Cook (Rabbitohs) while superstars Josh Addo-Carr, Brent Naden and Matt Burton will be saved for another week.


Always a Bulldog

The reserves will also get a go on the field won't they?
Surely everyone gets at least 20 mins on the field. I reckon a big bloke like Ava could do with decent minutes if he's in line for the FG bench. A few might drop back and play reserves too I reckon - maybe even play a bit of both.

Burns is shit. Schoup should get first crack if he’s fit. We have plenty of time for Alamoti, he’s already signed and he’s young. Schoupps a beast. He could go alright at wing as well.

the first 13 will probably play max first half id say
The club website shows our reserve grade side is playing also against Newcastle at 4.45
Going by that almost every player will get a run.

Schoupp looks to be 4th choice centre atm.
