There will be a few names added once the season is underway as I'm sure there will be a few boys missing out that have been named.
It all comes down to how players play throughtout the season & who standouts are.

How many of our NRL squad do you merkins reckon played Harold Matts or SG Ball for the Eels? I just had a look and it was more than I expected, though recent signings increased the number significantly.

I'd guess 7.

Hayne, Moses, Terepo, Moreoa, Mannah, K Pritchard, Nathan Davis.

Williams played in the same Matts Team as Hayne, Inu, Keating, Hodkinson, Mannah and I think Mateo - always a junior until Moanly offers a kid that hadn't played NRL $150k per season

I went and saw that team play at Cabramatta once and I walked away saying Trent Hodkinson would be the most successful NSW half of the next ten years and...yeah I was right.
Actually now I think of it, I think it was when that team had graduated to SG ball because I don't remember Hayne being there (the plane would have been in reserves by then and getting told by Smith that he wasn't up to it).
I also remember my initial thought of Mannah on the ground was that he was a thug (haha) then I saw him on the sidelines after the game with this enormous cross around his neck and a very friendly mannerism.

If an 18 year old is playing reserve grade I think his head coach rates him.
