  • Fully strength.  Maybe ray stone to replace Nikure R1

    • Doubt that. Niukore was one of our best middles last year.

      • He's suspended for round 1 Super. I think that is what Chiefy is getting at.

        • You'd have Darcy lussucik sarting at 14 come round 1 then rond two with Niukore available its ducks for courses.

          • wrong lussick chucky

            • lol

          • Uhmmmm, Darcy left us years ago.  It is one of his younger brothers.

      • Suspended Round 1. Has 1 left game left from a suspension last year. 

      • Yep, he is suspended but will be straight back in the 17 Round 2.

"The only way Ryles would do it is going for 4 forwards. He only using Joash over Da Silva is due to injury in the backs or halves. If Ryles brought Joash in as a 14 and give Smith some time off then yeah not great for Da Silva."
