Will watmough be available round 1?
Last reports were he isn't running yet. I know round 1 is still a long way away, but it may not be certaint that he is ready?
I wasn't talking about what numbers were on their backs, just what side of the field they were playing. A number is just a number.You can't be serious? Who gives a shit what number each of your centres has on his back? It's not as if that decides what side of the field they're on.
Looks like he is running from the training videos / pictures

Same team as Obscene Assassin if I am not mistaken and while most of the starting spots pick themselves...damn the bench spots are competitive.
I am of the expectation that we will run with a bench hooker and truth be told any of Kaysa, King and De Gois will do a pretty good job there but I'm running with Pritchard who I am admittedly a big fan of.
Alvaro and Gower are the two closest to cracking the bench initially (assuming Pauli is off to Newcastle otherwise he has a place in this group) and if either of Wicks or Watmough aren't ready due to their long injury layoffs I think Alvaro comes onto the bench.
I don't think guys like O'Brien, Tanginoa or Ualesi will truly challenge for the top roster come Round 1 barring a disastrous run of injuries in the Nines/Trials but they could come into serious calculations later in the season. Terepo has also proven to be a serviceable option as an interchange prop albeit with chronic handling issues. Ditto for Schulte and Moss in the backline.
Cornish is an awesome backup half and has done really well in the pre-season but hopefully his services don't need to be called upon.
The Cumberland throw has reported Jennings / semi on the left with Taka / Gutherson on the right.
Agree with those options for Round 1.Come mid season i agree this is our best team. Thou Gower will start the season before KE id say and also will have either Alvaro or de gois pending on what BA goes for on the bench before Kaysa.
Have you spotted Jennings at training ?
Is he on the left ?
I really dint like Semi being outside a bloke who constipates the back line. I gave him shit yelling at the TV in SOO for not passing to Hoppa a few times, dont think he heard me though. Hoppa was open but this bloke just will not pass the ball when I have watched him.
How many times was hoppa outside Jennings in SOO?
Couldn't have been too many times because IIRC Jennings played on the left and Hoppa played on the right. Would have been a pretty good pass for them to link up.
