as much as id love that to happen i dont think he will de-thrown cam smith anytime soon, and thats fair enough too, Cam Smith is a fantastic hooker. Payne off the bench in the not too distant future soon though.

thats a good bet to be on

Inglis, gasnier, cooper, hodges, all are pretty young and look to have a mortage on the rep centre jumpers

ill make a bet that hayne, gets picked in the centres before he does... talk about under-rated. collis, toungue, graham, holdsworth are all over-rated by their teams, 1 good season does not make a good player, consistancey makes a good player. these guys have potential and that it, and in tounges case he doesn't even have that. what he has had 1 decent season in his 10 years of 1st grade... good luck 2 u mate, he is no where near as capable as some ppl lead you 2 believe.

I agree entirely. However, Tongue has been consistently good for about 2 years, only noone noticed him last year. He has always had the same work ethic.

phil graham has one of the best strike records in the comp
and thats in a team that for the most part of his career thus far, has had no idea how to attack... imagine what sort of strike rate he'd have at saints or brisbane, cowboys, storm or even the knights?

graham has been awesome for years

yeah and he would have to be one of the quickest men in the game as well.
i would like to have him at the knights running on some freaky passes from a.johns

exactly, get him running off johns, lockyer, barrett, thurston etc and watch him go, thankfully in the next year or so i suspect he and todd carney will form a rather potent combination, we'll finally have a bloke in the halves with the vision and capability to use Graham as he should be used. He's improved defencively this year too.

In the famous words of the great Mario "This is a g up" seriously he has had 4 or 5 good games this year but thats about it. From manly i would have to say Chris Hicks is very very under rated.

Jason King gets an absolute pasting by alot of people here, this year he has been a real solid contributor, especially over the past 2 months. Ive been very impressed with him. Luke Douglas could probably slot in there with no worries without king
