I am very pleased that the footy will be back in just under two weeks!

It will be interesting to see what our team looks like on several fronts:

1. Will Kyle be our starting half back?
2. Will Boyd start, and play for the entire season or have more breaks?
3. Will Isaac Liu start given his (IMO) ordinary form in rounds 1 and 2?
4. Will Lindsay Collins get to play in round 3 off the bench? He should.
5. Will Sam or Jake start, and how should that balance be managed?
6. Should Toupa play on the bench in round 3? I certainly think so.
7. I presume that BMoz will play on the wing and JMoz at centre?

It will be an exciting, albeit challenging time for us. We will have to start fairly quickly out of the blocks, which is something that we are not accustomed to. It will be more of a sprint than a marathon.

Hopefully we can notch a win against Souths to kick us into gear.

It will be great.

For the two Roosters players charged for Round 3, JWH has taken the early guilty please whilst Victor Radley has plead not guilty and will fight the charge at the judiciary.

For once, we did quite okay the other night.

Our boys should be strong tonight but, just as I write this, news is coming out about Teddy possibly missing the game due to a high temperature this morning.

That would be a shame but, if we are even partly serious, we should still be too strong for them.
