Roosters seem a popular pick. Good side but the halves worry me. Not sold on Walker or Keary combo yet. JWH is getting pretty old.

Biggest disappointment? Blake

The first rookie to make NRL debut? Mataele

Surprise packet? Hodgson

Breakout year? Simonson (backs at centre) / Doorey (forwards)

Best retention? Pensini

The biggest name we let go? Sivo

Biggest signing? Taupau for 2022 or Simpkins for 2023


I'm confident Waqa Blake is going to suprise in a good way.

I looked at all the players off contract on zero tackle and his name stood out.

Especially as Canterbury and Gus have the cheque book for bringing players in.

They should be running out of space.

Averillo can play in halves, centre and FB. Ideally in a perfect world he could be centre partner to penisini and fill in whenever an injury happens to the spine.

I saw him on the Gold Coast a week ago. Good build. Bigger than I thought he was. Interesting choice.

I like him. Looks to have the right attitude too.

I feel he's a bit small and at very best could do a job as #14 because of the positions he can cover. If it's true that Asi is heading back to Nth Qld in 2024 then he would almost be a like for like replacement IMO

I hope you’re right. Most sides would kill to have the likes of Tedesco, Manu, Suali’i, Walker, Smith on their roster. In terms of talent how many sides have more talent than them?
