Reserve Grade discussion.

They probably wont all fit into our side but the truth is they probably wont all kick on. Luai, Burton, Staines, Laurie......They are all potentially in the mix next season(Luai obviously well ahead right now) but it will come down to who makes another step up and who doesn't, likely only a couple of them will.

It's different at rep level when you get to pick the best players in the world with no celery cap.

Even more reason to get flexible with your players

Yeah some will be duds but Staines on wing. Luai has played some hooker. There is the option of centre for someone too. No reason all can't be in the top 30 for a couple of seasons and see how it plays out

Depends on the players I guess. I can't specifically comment on these young blokes because I don't see them enough. Also we finally got Luai in a different position, at fullback, and he was injured so a missed opportunity to observe that as well.

Aside from Burton the others have been mixed around.

Tedesco is the only spine player I can of not to move around. Even the Storm big 3. Slater debuted as a centre. Cronk was a centre/Utility. Smith played half. So just because they play with these numbers now doesn't mean that is their position always

Hi Guys new member.... Mate of mine knows Matheson Johns family and he said apparently McGrady has done his ACL for the second time at training. I feel for him as he must be gutted. Played a great game last week end. Not sure how bad it is but he wont obviously play this week or probably again this season if correct

Welcome. Hope we see more of you.

That's sad news. Hopefully he isn't too bad.

Unfortunate if true

Thats a real shame if true mcgrady was just starting to hit his straps now this happens.Matheson goes good ive watched him play a few games this yr hes a strong runner and defender can play centre/backrow but has been named on the wing this week.

Yes hes a great kid as well. Thats how we found out because I think he has moved from the wing back into a utility role and back row this weekend as McGrady is out. They have brought up a 20's winger.

NSWRL website has them all. I am sure you could link them and be ok

Fair enough. I like it because it's my one creative outlet.

How did McKendry go?

How did McKendry go?

OK. Nothing to suggest he is knocking on the door for NRL selection.
