You can see AD have really put in over the off-season Maybe we need to get behind him.
As far as I'm concerned it's a new chapter. Innocent until proven guilty.
His goal kicking is solid too.
To'a should be fit and has an upside.
Maybe our centres can hold their own but AD tends to get burnt on the outside so cover has to be on their game.
If AD get drawn in, he is suspect in head on D.
Only effort from him will stop the naysayers.

Hope was also really really good. It's interesting though isn't it. It's also only one game.
Benji said whoever works the hardest and has the desire over the off-season will be rewarded.
Trialling well musr have tipped the scales too.
I was thinking earlier that he is a guy that won't stop and won't give in. I like that and have put others on notice.

I've seen Turuva play some very good footy at fullback when he played for Fiji. Not a playmaking type fullback but was extremely safe and ran the ball hard...kinda what we want from a fill in type fullback. In saying that, Im ok with Mason having a trot.

Turova or staines should be fullback over mason. Mason has potential but he is nowhere near a first grade fullback, the guy refuses to contest a bomb! Benjis youth obsession will cost us.

Agree, especially after our last game, last season, we need a positive start.
The start of the season is not the place to give young blokes ago, because they are young.
I don't think it is even his preferred position.

Good point about Bird. He is so competitive, and people have underestimated his worth.
If we have to, we might find him in the centres in the second half.


The first photo of Hunt.
Could you imagine him running at you full speed to the try line and you have to stop him hahaha
Seyfarth looks super fit in those pics

The last two are going to struggle. If AD has a good year he'll either be retained or go back to Souths with Wayne.
