Round 2 against the Bulldogs is sure to be spicy.
Not gonna lie, I kinda hope Luai gets suspended in Rnd 1, and we put Burto in at 6, and let him unleash.
The tears would be glorious.

Or luai plays 7, nate has a "rest" ala 2020

Just had a look at Sportsbet who have Charlie Staines @ $15 for leading try scorer. Might be worth a lazy $20

HM and SG ball highlights from the weekend are up on panthers twitter. Ryley Smith looks very good as does Mason and the SG ball fullback Cody Lawson looked the biggest and fastest kid on the field.

Don't know the names but the hooker in the blue headgear looked really good in the highlights.

Ok cool. Can't watch any videos till home with the wifi. Hope he keeps developing with us maybe an Api replacement.

If Momorovski partners him at centre. With Naden its less likely Staines will score as many tries down that edge.

If he plays 15 games he will win it

Cleary passes better to the right so still wouldn't write him off

He had Naden in that Sharks game.

Staines will score plenty regardless of his centre, his speed will have Cleary and others looking for him all the time. Staines and his centre should have Martin/Capewell there inside them most of the time both are Capewell of coming up with linebreaks and creating chances.

Edit: I'd love to see Staines drifting into the middle and catching offloads or hitting holes, he is so small and fast I feel like he could just slide through the defence lol.

Yeah but that was the game from hell. If Staines plays like that every week he will be the Don Bradman of rugby league.

Momorovski isn't a world beater but has shown more of a willingness to pass the ball than Naden. I think he will be better for Charles.

No writing off here. I love Naden.

If he starts over Momorovski round 1 then you'll know he had a great pre-season and deserves his spot.

In the article posted on NRL.com over the last few days on Charlie even he mentions drifting into the middle at the beginning of the sets because he is a natural fullback so I think we may actually see quite a bit of that this season!

He is definitely looking fitter than last season, got himself a missus by the looks of his instagram so hopefully she has him whipped. I'd be happy for him to win the spot also, that being said I am interested to see how a Momorovski/Staines pairing would go.

His 2020 pre-season, end of 2020 performances and the arrival of Momorovski should be enough to light a fire under his ass.

Yep it sounds that way with some saying he has been one of our better trainers this preseason. It might be a contract year for him also. I think either way we end up with a good centre and a good back up.

If Mom doesnt get the starting spot can he play wing as a back up?

Yes its a contract year. I think he has had interest from Melbourne previously.

With his work under the high ball he'd make a great back up winger. Odds on it will happen if Staines continues to get injured.

I think he will choose cricket long term. Conner Mason we can make into Api's replacement
