this would be my side at full strength:
1. Inglis
2. Johnston
3. Hunt
4. Goodwin
5. Auva'a
6. Keary
7. Reynolds
8. George Burgess
9. Cook
10. Thomas Burgess
11. Turner
12. Sutton
13. Sam Burgess
14. Carter
15. Clark
16. Grevsmuhl
17. Brown
I think Madge likes having 2 Burgii on the field at a time.
I think we need Tom on the bench for impact. I think Madge will do this too.
Can Auva'a catch bombs though????? I don't think he's played wing much before.
I know Hunt has played wing with his previous clubs. Madge may play Hunt on the wing.
I read that Tom injured an ankle and will be right for Round 1.
As Grevs hasn't played any trials due to his knee I don't think he will be there Round 1. Madge will give him a hit out or 2 with Norths first.
Here is my R1 team minus Keary, George and Grevs:
1. GI (C)
2. AJ
3. Auva'a
4. Goodwin
5. Hunt
6. Cody
7. Reynolds
8. T. Burgess
9. McInnes (may play a bit in back row too)
10. Clark
11. Turner
12. Sutton
13. S. Burgess
14. Cook
15. Tyrrell (will play prop)
16. Carter (will play back row)
17. Brown (will play prop)
18. Musgrove
19. A. Gray
