Who will they be seeing Shrek is leaving? Personally, I'd love it to be Armit and Hickey will Mason shifting back to second row, SBW shifting to lock and finding a place for Maitua somewhere in the starting side too. In a nutshell, I don't think Mason has been as destructive at prop and find second row is more his position. Chris Armit has been with us for a couple of years off the bench mainly and deserves his starting spot. Hickey has also proven his is a starting prop. Time to blooden these young props now and let the new wave come from PL to the FG bench.

Mason on the bench will never happen.

Why pay 400K, one of the best forwards in the game, plays for NSW and Australia and put him on the bench.

And dont give me the crap about impact off the bench....just a stupid idea.

whoever says mason should go to the bench is a joke. Anyone who says mason hasn't been destructive at prop is also a joke. Prior to his injury, he was the best forward in the game.

Was thinking WTF they were on about!

Tsoulos picked up an injury against the gos PL team (first minute on the field i think). He was a bench player in the Eels PL...he will have a lot of work in front of him if he is to make it at the Dogs. We may have a player or 2 in our PL that may fill the void. Also that Conrad bloke we signed from Norths has been one of their best all year apparently.

Snippet from RLW:

The Bulldogs have signed a giant front-rower who has played for Samoa in World Cup qualifiers. Conrad Ta'akimoeaka has been a standout fr North Sydney in Premier League this year and the 22-year-old is seen by the Bulldogs as a possible replacement for Roosters-bound Mark O'Meley.

8. Armit
9. Hughes/Suliivan
10. Mason
11. Williams
12. Ryan
13. Maitua

14. Sullivan/Hughes
15. Koups
16. Hickey
17. Te Maari

18. Leano
19. Tsolous

21. Mcilwain
22. Briggs

And more that i cant remember at this time, i know we have lost O'Meley, Price, Myles and the biggest one Asotasi in the last few years, but that is looking like a pretty damn good pack especially with a quick dummy half in Sullivan, should be good.

I have always liked the looks of Hickey. With another off season he may be pushing for a starting spot. The thing is that with all the injuries to the pack, even with all those great forwards leaving, the Dogs pack is one of the strongest.
