As per the other thread…

JAC will surely get sometime on the field even though he’ll miss rounds 1-2.

Dyl shouldn’t be missing a full squad trial for an overseas wedding. He’s had 6 months to attend weddings and his brother surely knows his schedule. A spine player missing the only major trial for a non-emergency event isn’t acceptable imo.. not for a $900k player, so someone wanting $1.2m.

You're a tough boss.

That is a cool side. Shows that Moses and Paulo are the only ones who Ryles doesn't need to see in order to pick them. Trials are supposed to be about trialling players to get a good look at them and with this side Ryles is able to possibly sort out some contentious spots for Round 1.

I mean, sure, but i'd have still given Moses and Paulo some mins, even if i was 15-20. Its not like we're easing into the season, its Storm in Melbourne and Moses hasn't played a club game in what, nearly 9 months.

Joffa missing too - so he's either a lock in, or in the dog house for dacking.

I see no benefit in starting Lussick however. Start Smith and interchange him with Hands. Lussick surely cant even be under consideration.

Another experimental side.... Ryles obviously still wanting to see what some of the boys can offer.

BA traditionally would just play Reggies Week 1 then full strength side Week 2
Not a BA thing, traditionally its an NRL thing. Looking across the games, with the exception of the teams heading to Vegas, everyone has named a full strength team (minus injuries of course) apart from, well, us.
