Fearless prediction: Des will name one player that no-one expects.
(Although he won't play!)

 

[Evo]

I think one of our biggest probs last year was playing Matt ballin for 80mins. 2008 him & Stranger worked a treat, and I think Terrence can play the Stranger role this year. As well, he played alot of 5/8 in QLD which means he could cover DCE/Foran.

Joe by all reports is still lame.

So based on that:

1. Snake
2. Robbo
3. Killer
4. TRex
5. Wolf
6. Foran
7. Evo 🙂
8. King
9. Ballin
10. Kite
11. Rodney
12. Choc
13. Gift

14. Seu Seu
15. Rose
16. Cunningham
17. Buhrer

 

[Mybludog]

I think Des will have a back on the bench in case Brett or Wollfy need a spell..........maybe uses T-Rex and can play him in the pack or Hoppa.

If Hotrod does play I'd say he'd come off the bench as well

 

[ERNIE FOR NO7]

What happened to Whare? I think he'll be therre if he isn't injured.

he broke his ankle playing for NZ U20s. He has started to run on it. Earliest estimate on when he will play is round 6.

What about Harrison, is he likely to get a run?

not likely  -  Buhrer and Lussick will picked ahead of him.

17 Tony Williams

 

[wombatgc]

if Williams is out I'd have T-Rex on the wing, ONLY if Lyon is on his inside. T-Rex is a confidence player and I thought he and Killer made a really good combo when on together last year. In the unfortunate circumstance that Lyon is off injured, then T-Rex gets hooked as well.  😛

Very nice team,but Foran said in Big league he had spent all his time in the pre-season at 5/8

Thanks Ernie, it's a shame for him and us because he's obviously rated highly and would have had a great chance to impress.

To be honest I'm not sure why people are so pumped about Harrison.  If you compare the U20s career of both Buhrer and Harrison then I think Jamie has it all over him.  I'm not sure what people think we are getting for him but from what I've seen of both players live and on tap, I'd be picking Buhrer.

It's Harrison's work rate. While Buhrer can play a number of position's (probably a good thing for him) Harrison is an out and out backrower and now has the size to back it up. Buhrer at times last season looked like a boy playing with men

 

[StuBoot]

Dessies bench formula - 3 big boppers  ( most likely Joe, Big George & most likely Cross if fit ) & a no frills ute ( ie Seu Seu )
