I'd be surprised if we have more than 4. Unless Buhrer & Lussick jump out of the blocks. If they do, that is a good sign, not a negative one.
Origin & rep games are mainly a big drain on the more mature players who have been there & done that, who have to get psyched up for the huge events yet still have to carry their team when they come back the club matches.
For young up & comers the experience is a huge boost to their confidence. With the squad we have now the load will be spread, as I said elsewhere I expect Mauro and some of the lesser light forwards to do a lot of the donkey work this year. Our guns will be ready to roll out at the correct time.
