We look to have a great bunch of young stars right now. Some are just starting their first grade career's, while we have several others who haven't played first grade yet but have some pretty big wraps on them. We have the likes of Lucky and Lomax who look like they could be in for big seasons. I won't be surprised to see either of them playing origin in the next few years. Lawrie was really hitting his straps at the end of last season. Host could still prove to be a good first grader. Dufty is still a young star too.
Then we have the likes of Robson, Ravalawa, Field, Marsters, Ford, Sailor, Silverman and Schiller who all have big wraps on them. It will be interesting to see how these young stars progress over the next few years, but it looks to me like Millward and the rest of our recruitment team are doing a good job.
I am keen to see some footage of Silverman and Schiller.
It is looking like the perfect ingredient for a premiership. A top line pair of halves, one of the best forward packs in the comp and a plethora of young stars who will be on relative low money for a short time. The last time we has so many young stars at our club was 2009, when we had Merrin, Stanley, Linnett, Leilua and Beau Henry in the under 20's, while Nightingale was just starting his first grade career. The next year we won the comp.
