1. Hodgson - self-explanatory. He picks himself despite a poor game this week
2. Moodie - hasnt had a poor game all season. Along with Hodgson has been our best back.
3. Halatau - i love this kid. He plays the game the way it should be played hard but fair. We should get Dene to teach Benji how to run straight because he does it so well.
4. Elford/Harrison - i have had a my reservation all year about Elford and yesterday he reinforced that view. However, his experience is probably invauable. Yet, seeing Bronson in the centres would be an awesome sight
5. Fitzhenry - depending on injuries of course. Richards didnt look fit to me and would better for a few runs in reggies. Fitzhenry offers a lot running from dummy half. Added i dont think much of the roosters wingers and this fitzhenry could handle them defensively. Put him on Todd Byrne's side and he will do fine.
6. Prince - by far and away his best position. Added to that it takes some of the pressure of him and allows him to run the ball more which is what we need him doing.
7. Kerr - best halfback the club has had since the merger. The way he organises the forwards and the backs is reminiscint(spelling??) of Ricky Stuart
8. Laffranchi - he is big enough for the front row now.
9. Senter - the guy kept us in that game for the first 20 mins yesterday. Without him the score would have been 50-0 at halftime
10. Skandalis - when he is a good he is great.
11. O'Neill - we missed the little things he does so well.
12. Sattler - as above
13. Fulton - brings creativity to the side that we are lacking in Sattler. He wouldnt let us down.
14. Mears/Farah - they both have their strengths. At the moment probably go with Mears but dont want to leave Farah out for much longer
15. Payten
16. Gibbs
17. Heignington
Thats a big bench. Plus the starting lineup is the most creative we have had on the park all year.
cheers

. Go watch the Canterbury game again and see how a real halfback gets his forwards organised. In my view there are only three half backs in the game today who do this. Johns, Kimmorely, and Orford. As good as Gower is I wouldnt say that was one of his strengths but he was getting better at it last year.
