2016 backline

Yes i am including jennings. reports say our weakness this season is our backline from 1-5 but looking at our backline with the inclusion of jennings has me very excited! With the best centre and winger in the nrl how could anyone not be excited. What do you think of our backline and how it will go against its opponents this season?1.Gordon2.semi3.taka4.jennings5.guthersonDepthMorganFarimoFalouShultzV toutaiTahuFrenchIn no particular orderSorry for the misspellings.

  • Jennings should be on the right and our backline goes from weakness to strength

    Foran takes our halves from a weakness to a strength

    Our backline is a strength with a fixed Watmough and Scott

    Now our weakest aspects are last years strengths - props and hooker, but they are not weak (just not as elite as Foran, Semi, Jennings, Watmough (if back near best), Scott

    Really main issues are stability, ability to continue to improve throughout the year.

    Also if we get an long-term injury to Foran, Peats, or both goal kicker/fullbacks (Gordon and Gutherson) we will struggle 

    • Put him on the right spread our weapons all across the field
  • We have a team to be really excited about each week, with jennings on board i really think we are a great chance every week now, we are officially back as a threat in the comp and will have plenty of teams worried in the lead up to playing us.

  • Add in Jennings and we suddenly have 3 of the best line players in the positions in the comp.

    Semi,Jennings and Foran.

    • What about Corey?

    • We have the third best halves combo in the comp and maybe the second best behind Thurston and Morgan.
    • Ryan Morgan is going to the Cowboys to play in the halves? ;)
  • I didnt include the 6 and 7 position because we have one of the best halves pairing in the comp and that just speaks for itself
  • That's a very very handy backline. One to be reckoned with.

    If Jennings is a done deal as many on here claim then we are a great shot at top 4.

    I'm Excited!!!

    • OMG Frank

      I was starting to wonder if we'd get you there.

      Welcome on board the I'm excited train.

      We will either being pulling into Finals station in October or be derailed around the the 9th bend. But the trip proves to be EXCITING either way. Hahaha
