Tonga
Blair
Hayne
Sandow
Maitua
B Smith
Paulo
Moi Moi
Keating
Mannah

Lussick
Kelly
Allgood

I dont particularly like Hayne at 6, but having Mullaney at the back makes us a little more threatening. I dont think that first side listed above will worry too many sides.

I agree. Very similar to last year so lets see if Ricky has got the magic touch. I don't think those teams will worry the leading contenders.

Perfect team. You know exactly what you're talking about.

You don't have a clue, do you?

but having Mullaney at the back makes us a little more threatening.
Spot on. You're on the money, as always.

Seriously, you need to learn a little about footy.

Hayne looked huge in the All Stars game. Would have to be the biggest fullback in the comp. I appreciate it was his first game in 9 months but he still struggles a little in defence and positional play at fullback. He will start at 1 but I would be surprised if he stays there by round 26.

My guess:

1.Hayne
2.Sio
3.Morgan
4.Tonga
5.Blair
6.Sandow (why not swap the jerseys around and maybe fool the opposition?)
7.Kelly (see above)
13.Maitua
12.Ryan
11.B.Smith(c)
10.Mannah
9.Keating
8.Allgood

14.Paulo
15.Harrison
16.Moi Moi
17.Lussick
18.Roberts (one to be omitted - not sure who)

Some decent impact off the bench, mixed with some guys that can toil for good minutes in the starting back row, and Loko and Mullaney in reggies ready for the first backline opportunity. Look for the difference in improved motivation and preparation to be evident on field.

We struggle in terms of size most of the time in the forwards and people are suggesting that Maitua, Smith and Paulo start???

Harrison for mine is a must or I'd even be happy with Lussick starting in the back row with Smith and Maitua leaving Moimoi at prop. Only issue there is we would struggle for momentum when they go off. Ideally Moimoi would be best used from the bench. Haven't seen anything if Edwards yet to make a call. Tautai and Lasalo should play plenty of football at Wenty.

The trial side for mine looks pretty good with only Smith, Maitua and Hayne to come into the 17.
