From that bench it would have to be Kent.

From a full strength bench . . . . ask me when we are at full strength.

So why Kent?
He has had many peoples wraps in premier league.
he played well the other night. He can cover a host of positions.
Why does he deserve to get the punt?

He doesn't offer the same versatility. Look I am not talking about promoting Bird this week, but the choice of Kent on the bench puzzles me regardless of Bird.

Whats doin here Reefy. A few weeks ago I was calling for Kent to be put in 1st grade in place of McGoldrick and YOU cried me down, so now you want him in 1st grade after 1 game on the wing, you changed your mind.

How does he lack the same versatility?
He has been seen once. & went well.
Obviously by premier league selections he can play anywhere.
& he has been playing well enough to get the call up.
In fact his game on the wing the other night was better than any game Bird ever had.

Kent has even played 5/8 in PL :lol:

I'd say he is there as a back up for Rieck and Vagana incase they don't play

No, I just don't like personality selections.
You had no idea how he was going this year.
I saw kent once & he went average.
He played well the other night. & does not deserve to get punted to make make way fora golden child who has never produced anything.

OK. He couldn't replace Bailey, Ise, Galloway and still have the versatility to play in the back line.

This is a very hypothetical quiz though.

This is clearly the best team possible:

1. Peachey
2. Kent
3. Vagana
4. McGoldrick
5. Rieck/Merritt
6. Aitken
7. Kimmorley (c)
13. Hilder
12. Bailey
11. Isemonger
10. Nutley
9. Sullivan
8. Stevens
Interchange
14. Lomu
15. Dumas
16. Newton
17. Galloway

Methinks Tamazoid is a nutcase. Newton in? He's been playing footsies in Premier League, you haven't even seen him play this year. How could you include him on that basis?

Gallen out? WTF?

I seen Kent play 4 or 5 games last year and he was goin great guns and I told you that and that was why I wanted him in 1st grade this year. Mate I have'nt been to sydney this year so how the hell could i rate him on this years performance.

Kent went good last week. I think he is another one who benefited from the step up to NRL level along with Aitken. I watched him in PL against Souths a few weeks ago and his defence was responsible for two tries as his center opposite got around him twice. At that stage i thought McGoldrick was clearly our best center. I am not gonna crucify McGoldrick for his bad game last week as he had improved heaps till then and a player is entitled to a shocker but i think he is gonna have to watch himself with Kent pushng for a spot.
Kent is apparently highly thought of at the club.
