Early predictions for season 2017!

[MrBlack]

(unsubstantiated) roumers that Peachy s not happy and may be looking for a release (be it his choice or not). Hopefully not true.

He just re-signed... if he were unhappy he wouldn't have done so. Not that circumstances can't change... but it wouldn't make much sense.

Looks pretty happy to me in the pre season training photos I have seen!

Out of curiosity where did you hear or read these rumours?

He is shit-stirring.

Wish this site had a ignore function.

Someone mentioned the Peachy thing on zero tackle. Sounds like BS. He's just extended FFS. On all the photos at training, he's grinning like an idiot.
Anyway, we've got to let go of the ones that want to go.

That is where I saw it. Could be rubbish but there was some talk of it last season. You would have to think that he would not be happy being a permanent bench player without a position. All calmed down once he started playing regularly in the centres. Possible that he is unhappy again if being told to vacate for Whare??

 

[Kilkenny]

It is rubbish. Spoke to a source today who indicated nothing could be further from the truth. We can all put this one to bed!!!!!

Few people have told me Edwards will play first grade this year

He certainly will if we have injuries in our backline. Training well by all reports. Just not quite sure where he fits in at the moment with the return of Hiku and Whare. I personally don't see him as a winger. His best position is fullback at the moment so he's not likely to get a start in that position unless both Moylan and DWZ are injured at the same or perhaps during the rep period.

Moylan would have to be playing 6 for Edwards to play first grade at this point

Pretty right!! And that's not gonna happen unless TMM/Cleary sustain injuries which obviously we do not want to see happen.

We deserve a change of fortune on the injury front. I know all sides get injuries, it is just a fact of life, but we seem to have had more than our fair share in recent seasons.

A bit of good fortune on the injury front will go a long way to success in 2017.

Some don't agree but sacking Ronnie Palmer has to help. What was going on year after year wasn't just luck

There was only one really diabolical year, 2015. Every other year was within reason.

This is probably correct, but I think a lot of people are making the assumption that TMM has a walk up start in the 6. I'm not 100% convinced this is the case.

Not true at all, 2014 was worse but Moylan, Sowie and Seg stayed fit and carried us

 

[soc123_au]

It will be interesting to see how Parra go on the injury front with Ronnie on the payroll.

 

[mxlegend99]

I dont know that Ronnie would be the cause. it would be more than just one individual.

The staff we had weren't up to it as a whole. But individually they are probably all fine.

Early reports suggest he is one of the best in the pre season training. Not just his fitness but his skills too.

And speed as well - could be looking at fill in for Mansours wing spot.
