Gee we have a few forwards to pick from
This was Pou Pou's crack at Wenty teamlist prior to the signing of Evans. He has Terepo, Edwards and I believe Joseph Paulo pegged for the first grade squad.

(Pending their contract status: Lasalo, Mataele, Vaeau, McKinnon, Moliota and Parata will also be contending for spots for the names in bold, IMO)
The open fullback gig is an interesting one. With Evans pushing Pewhairangi out of the halves he could potentially play there. His running game is his strongest asset, he has a bit of speed and can ball-play but he would be learning the position as he goes.
Sio and Hunt would be the best candidates from the players that we know will definitely be here in 2014 but they are also our best all-round wingers at the moment.
I'm not sure where Jerome MacKenzie stands with the club's future plans but he could be an option as well. However his addition would mean someone else misses out.
We look short of a back up hook - peats will be in top side but unless Pritchard plays nsw cup we don't really have anyone else in our squad . Is Brendan McKinnon our current nsw cup hooker a option ?
Too early for me to make a call on McKinnon but I do like what I've seen so far. Good, consistent service and he plays a decent amount of minutes. It looks like he may have tightened Wenty's ruck defence as well (along with Lasalo and Vaeau). If he sticks around, he will keep Kaysa honest at the very least.
F**k, talking about NSW Cup teamlists is almost as exhilarating as discussion about the 2014 NRL squad. :lol:
