We know stickys game will revolve heavily on a hard hitting runner with strong leg drive to break through the defensive line, so who will be most likely to get the gig?

Well if it wasn't for lack of speed it'd be Unco. Better leg drive than all of them. Always breaking tackles.

Brown will need a good off season under his belt as he's a bit spindly to fill the bill at the time of writing.

Tosh is the one who's got the build and ability so I'll go for him.

Albert - well first he'll have to grow a heart and then he'll have to learn to catch.

Although conviently leaving out Simmons it will be him for the start of the season at the least.

Ricky will give him some fine tuning and see how he goes.

He has the speed and size. Just needs the aggression.

He hasn't shown anything resembling aggression in 4 years. 7 counting his time in the lower grades. I don't believe he has any aggression in him to be honest.

I think Simmons will most likely get first crack. Whether he stays there or not is up to him. Who knows having to fight for his spot week in week out like everybody else might see him finally live up to his potential.

Definately won't be Alby, usless prick can fugg off now.

Love to see Covell get a crack. I know Ima and myself were both calling for him to be given a shot before this season even started.

Of those listed most likely to resemble Mini though I'd say Brown. Probably needs another year or so to get there though.

If we still got Tosh - I'll go with the kid.

Throw the Christians to the Lions I reckon

Mini 88kg - 181cm

Albert 90kg - 181cm

Brown 89kg - 187cm

Simmo 92kg - 186cm

Tosh 91kg - 181cm

I would have the smallest bloke as my pick from that lot. Since size is not an indicator - who can Ricky unleash the menace within to run hard, break the line, and wear his heart on the sleeve.

Tosh first for mine - more experience in the top grade obviously. How many games has he under his belt - is it only 1. Maybe a distant tip for rookie of the year 07 under ricky.

You're right there Inferno.
I would love to see the great man Covell get first crack at fullback.
If Ricky has got his balls in place I'm sure he's very impressed with the way Luke attacks the ball and will give him a go in the trials at least to check out his form.

PLEASE

Not having seen much of Brown, I really cant say I am impressed with either of the other two either. I am abstaining from voting.
