Fullback - For mine it will most likely to be Mini, though Stewart is in the running, the rest are running a distant third
Wing - Grothe has been average this year, Tahu is going to Union, Merritt and Hayne are not there yet, a real tough one........i wouldn't rule out El Marsi based on his kicking whilst the selectors might accomdate Mini by putting Stewart on the wing
5/8 - Real lack of options, Hornby would seem the safe bet, as would Anasta, but im not keen on either atm. Personally i think its time to look at the future and throw Carney or maybe Mullen in there, they may not be quite ready but who else is there
Half -Orford is the obvious choice provided he comes back from injury well, other options are the tried and tested Kimmorly and Gower but neither are real strong options........the halves are a real weakness for the blues
Bench Forwards - No lack of options for the two bench positions with Tupou Simpson and Ryles leading a pack that includes Gallen, Bird, Creagh, Hoffman, Watmough and Matiua
