1. Hayne will not play centre - he has been one of the most outstanding fullbacks of the modern Era.2. Forget about French at fullback for the time being - his defense and anticipation aren't yet in the Hayne league. French has a natural finishing flair, and has been a try scoring freak every time he's been given the wing jersey.3. Gutherson has only just started running in straight lines. After two recos, he will be nursed back into the centres, and probably not until rounds 4-8.4. Hayne’s defence at the back in 2014 was absolutely outstanding. He'll get back to where he was fitness wise because he wants to be at Parramatta.Hayne will be our fullback for at least the next 3-4 years in my opinion.R 1 Lineup1. Hayne2. French3.

  • Hayne will not be our fullback when Gutho is back to fitness. Guth is our number 1.
    • Amen
  • I kno you look and see I must be crazy but hear me out....
    Taka - next to Hayne, has great brain and ball sense, take a high ball
    Williams - used as a prop BA will bring his damage back
    Pritchard n Edwards for size n mongrel
    Vave n Evan size
    Mau n Moeroa off bench bring back their ball playing n offloads to tired defence
    Terepo Scott Pritchard K Nuikore back up
  • I’m with you Chief. I like both Bevan and Gutho but Jarryd at the back, fit and in form is a no brainer.
  • Hayne will play centre- simple
  • Hay Chief I like you But are you on drugs Hayne to be our fullback for next 3 or 4 years come on I say 1 may be 2 that it he will retire

    And when Gutherson comes back who drops out for him same thing for Scott

    I hope Scott plays one more year

    and I see some people on here name Frank Pritchard in there side I don't think we resign him yet
