Wishful thinking..🙂Wishful thinking or have you heard something?
I like it, i'd AddHere is what I build around :
01. Tom Trbojevic
02. Jason Saab
03. Tolu Koula
04.
05. Reuben Garrick
06. Kaeo Weekes
07.
08. Josh Aloiai
09.
10. Jake Trbojevic
11. Haumole Olakau'atu
12.
13. Josh Schuster
14. Karl Lawton
15. Taniela Paseka
16. Sean Keppie
17. Kelma Tuilagi
And build around that. The player spots I've left holes in are released or traded. Parker, Harper, KDL, Croker, DCE. If Garrick is gone (make sure you get that Knights winger as replacement ) , see if you can also get Best out of them
We NEED character , ticker and heart.
Zac Fulton gets pumped playing in our SG Ball and NSW Cup teams mate. Having him in the team was novel, but if he's in our first grade team, we are gooooorn.
There was a bloke back in the 80's named Terry Lamb who won the best and fairest in the comp playing for Wooden Spooners Western Suburbs, who then went to the Bulldogs and won comps and was near the best 5/8 every year from that point.....playing in a dud team does not make you a dud player and in fact, there have been many star players to never win a comp, yet been the best players on the field most weeks.No comment on Fulton as the it is early days but this logic is flawed.
It's like saying Tino gets pumped in the Titans side so he'd make no difference to our side.
1 player can't carry a team, heck Thurston was in a bunch of ordinary teams. Beaver was part of the Northern Eagles.
I like it, i'd Add
4. Chritian Tuipulotu
I hope he can but he has been hurt a lot a bit like Boyle.Who are going to be our props in 2023?
We were weak with Marty playing in 2022, but if we don't sign a prop or two for 2023, not sure how we are going to compete with the top sides.
We will have
Aloiai and Paseka are true first graders.
Is Tuitavake a guy that can break out in 2023?
I hope he can but he has been hurt a lot a bit like Boyle.
The fact Boyle wasn’t announced in list of players that are leaving during their farewell game back in round 23 is potentially an indication we are resigning himIf we resign Boyle for 2023, it will be a pretty good indication we are not signing any props of note.
I have Weekes at 5/8 as well.No ... I just don't have him in 1st grade until he earns it .

That line up kinda worries me. Can't see the opposition being intimidated by it.08. Josh Aloiai
10. Jake Trbojevic
15. Sean Keppie
16. Taniela Paseka
18. Ethan Bullemor (if/when required)
Then give the bloke Tuitavake a run when desperate - he was great in the trial against The Tigers earlier on.
I honestly think adding a Nathan Brown from the Eels and another angry mother would instill some intimidation. Imo Brown suits what he need. Has choc Watmough written all over himThat line up kinda worries me. Can't see the opposition being intimidated by it.

I'd be happier with:
01. Tom Trbojevic
02. Jason Saab
03. Tolu Koula
04. NEW
05. Reuben Garrick
06. Kaeo Weekes
07. Daly Cherry-Evans
08. Josh Aloiai
09. NEW
10. Jake Trbojevic
11. Haumole Olakau'atu
12. NEW
13. Josh Schuster
14. Karl Lawton
15. Sean Keppie
16. Taniela Paseka
17. Kelma Tuilagi
These three players need to by VERY high end. Think Bradman Best, not sure at hooker, and Angus Chrighton type leadership and pace.
