My crystal ball tells me that there might be a shake up in the halves, I see one of the young blokes coming in a some stage, possibly Tracey, we might see Walker on the bench, a victim of his own versatility, one of the dreaded perennial utility victims
Tracey is the most likely. He has been held back by injury but shows all the signs of a highly skilled and freakishly fit player. If he can avoid serious injury this season, he will be a real contender. The other big movers will be between players like Doueihi, Arthars, Britt and Rodwell. I’m hoping Rodwell lives up to expectation and hits the NRL running.
Same. Initially, I thought they might be a chance of first grade around Origin time but after thinking about it further, I think they should both have a season at Norths this year. Then they'll be right in the mix for 2019 as they both have huge potential.I’m in no real hurry for Rodwell & Johnstone to move up too quickly, I’m just happy we have two up & coming Rep props who have real potential, we know front Rowers take a bit longer to find their feet, it’d be nice to just see gradual improvement
Agreed. I doubt we'd have signed Nicholls/Leuluai/Tatola if we were going to roll those two out this season.I’m in no real hurry for Rodwell & Johnstone to move up too quickly, I’m just happy we have two up & coming Rep props who have real potential, we know front Rowers take a bit longer to find their feet, it’d be nice to just see gradual improvement
Yes Musgrove has a good chance to kick on....Same.

Then they'll be right in the mix for 2019 as they both have huge potential.
I'm also hoping Musgrove is a bit more consistent this year and we see some more growth from him not to mention George sorting his stuff out.
I think we certainly have the potential for another menacing forward pack in the near future.
Douehi should be given any opportunity before Tracey. The RLWC showed he can handle it. We need to hang onto him especially if Cody leavesTracey is the most likely.

Douehiei should get first crack before TraceyMy crystal ball tells me that there might be a shake up in the halves, I see one of the young blokes coming in a some stage, possibly Tracey, we might see Walker on the bench, a victim of his own versatility, one of the dreaded perennial utility victims
Out of curiosity, have you seen Connor Tracey play?Douehiei should get first crack before Tracey
Yes in between his massive stints on the sideline.Out of curiosity, have you seen Connor Tracey play?
Spot on....Yes in between his massive stints on the sideline.
I have see Douehi play a lot including in WC and he should be next in line for a crack
How did you see him play in between his injuries when he hasn't played since his first major one? Why lie about something like that?Yes in between his massive stints on the sideline.

Seen him play lower grades coming through for sharks.How did you see him play in between his injuries when he hasn't played since his first major one? Why lie about something like that?
No dramas I will always back myself when it comes to opinions or facts on players etc Cheers@DynamicRabbit1 don't worry mate....... Veracity and Rabbitoad will try cause an argument out of nearly all you say....... they aren't worth it.....
If you can't see that now mate you'll see it soon enough...
If Cody goes we must keep Doueihi......Seen him play lower grades coming through for sharks.
Douehi has more potential and showing more
Likewise to your point..
How can anyone say Tracey should get next shot over Douehi when he hasn’t been on the field where Douehi has been doing his time in NYC, then Bears and then Lebanon??
I think Doueihi is the better player mate, I was just curious as to how you'd seen him play between injuries.Seen him play lower grades coming through for sharks.

Wouldn’t be suprised if he gets a start at left centre for 2018. He went ok there for LebanonI think Doueihi is the better player mate, I was just curious as to how you'd seen him play between injuries.
Tracey's a gun, but I've rated Doueihi since I saw him at a Rugby carnival a few years back.
His game management/overall ability reminded me of a young Stephen Larkham (only you know, with a kicking game).
