[Yosh]

Looks big, strong and fast. Great pick up. Will have to fight for a spot in first grade as our back five have been excellent.

Is he big enough to play second row?

IMO he’ll be first up injury cover so will end up getting a lot of games. Will likely be groomed to take over from Gags.

He’s 190cm and 95kg so probably could but given how quick he is I think that’d be a waste.
Ideally he has a gun pre season, kills it in trials and leapfrogs Sharpe or Marzhew, otherwise he’s injury cover for wing/centre and we don’t have to move Dylan Lucas around.

Yeah spot on, Schiller is Gags heir apparent. He'll get first-drop treatment next year for the outside backs as you both said, and should be a walk up start to fill Gags shoes the year after at right centre for sure

Honestly, our first-string 1 -> 5 looks healthy into the future. Got a bloke like Votano coming through too, and a lot of good judges seem to suggest he'll be a hard one to hold back.

In addition to Schiller's impressive form in Cup let us hope Will Pryce takes his nod as the top 6 there as the motivation to step it up and have an enormous off season.
