Future Spine player to Hooker/dummyhalf

[MugaB]

Out of all the current players or soon to be 1st graders, do you see move into a hooking role from a current spine position, ala Cameron Smith, Ben Hunt, Peter Wallace, Des Hasler (back in the 90s) Etc....

Recently the tigers had Josh Reynolds last season, im hearing Moses M'Bye might move to the no.9 this year.
Are there any others?

Watson made a pretty good transition from full back to hooker last year.. Sounds like he's been training at lock this off season though with Brailey in the squad

Surely the Dragons will see Hunt is a crap scrum half and shift him to hooker permanently?

I would love to see nathan cleary take on the no.9 role in a few years, getting out of dummy half, maybe play like cameron smith does

He can play anywhere, imagine him and his brother link up from the play the ball

Cory Paix - the Broncos' Cooper Cronk Clone. He plays halfback for Redcliffe in the QLD Cup, but he's been training at hooker for the past 12 months. If he trials well there is every chance he starts the season in the 14 jumper as he provides far more versatility than McCullough - not only can he sub on for Turpin, but he can cover the halves, and Milford can switch to fullback if Jamayne Isaako goes off. Seibold is a fan, extending him to the end of the 2022 season mid-last year.
