The only one i would liked to have kept would be Aaron Canning's.That is a huge turn around of playing talent.Most of the old player's didn't have much talent.I liked Ferris though he tried hard.A bit like Monaghan...Good work Flip.It really cast's your mind back....

Definitely heading in the right direction when you look at some of those big names in the 2003 side. Wooden, Shipway, Dorn, Winter - thinking about them gave me a cold shiver.

Wasn't Reeves at Fullback

Flip may have quoted a team list from a similar point in time in 2003 to 2005 rather than the best possible side (which Reeves would be in)

Reeves played just 16 games that season. Alby actually appeared at Fullback more often than not and played more game so I just jotted him in at fullback. Otherwise Reeves is technically the fullback.

True SDS and I doubt Wooden was a starting prop to often as he played mainly reserve grade!

But still a healthy improvement. Especially considering they were verging on insolvency.
