It would be fantastic if Dureau is on firstgrade standby.

Hunt at halfback - asking a lot from him, but he has played a fair bit of 5/8 and hooker so he has the running and passing game - don't know who kicks because Karawana doesn't do a lot.

Roopy's been talking him up all year to play 5/8 and he has been in great form so let's see what he offers in the halves.

Like Roopy i am a little concerned with who will kick though, Marvin isn't exactly brilliant at it and Hunt and Thurston rarely kick.

Just looked at his profile.
Hunt is an inch taller and 3kg heavier than Joey - so no problem with size in the halves now.

An interesting point - I remember a few years ago doing a post about us having a PL side with 0 firstgrade experience - literally none of the guys had played a game of firstgrade.

This team could be the most experienced Knights PL side ever. 8 have played firstgrade, and guys like Davico, Sargeant, Franze, Tanner and Carmont range between 50 and a few hundred games.
I'd say 400 - maybe 500 games of firstgrade experience in this side - probably half as much as our firstgrade side.

If Mr Robinson is more concerned with winning than developing players like Uate, Dureau, H and Timmy - I think he doesn't understand his job.

Having said that - I don't believe it.

honestly i think the possibility of dureau and Uate somehow being dropped is more possible then them getting a chance in first grade!!

just weird feeling!!

Maybe Smith is using them as his "get dressed, have pre-game build up, then have a shower and watch the game" guys, as he knows he may need both soon.........
