  • Surely addo carr comes in

  • I mean what is the point of naming JAC in extended squad, if we were 2-0 then ok some could believe he could be left out but come on Ryles. Plus Matterson 18th man, no other changes. First time i am a bit questioning Ryles. But then again do not want him panicking either. I expect a few late changes.

    • This won't be the final 17

      • Definately.

  • Hands needs to go

    bring The fox in for Russell 

    Matterson in for Hands

     

    • I think Matto for either Tuivaiti or Doorey. Can't trust Smith with full 80 yet.

  • Surely Russell to drop out

    • I think so too, considering JAC plays left.

      • This team list reminds me of previous years when BA would name unchanged sides for weeks on end.

    • I would drop Penisini and move Russell to centre. He has been jamming in to cover Penisini anyway, may as well play there.

      And bring in Papalii for Brown

"Pops, good blog.
Ryles has shown he’s not afraid to blood rookies and juniors over established players: Ryley, TDS, Kautoga, Papali’i, Samrani, Iongi.
It’s never going to be a perfect process, some players will leave if they “feel” their paths are…"

"Ryles said the 6 jersey is up for grabs with Joash and Pezet likely to battle it out in the preseason.  Nothing is set.
Also heard Brandy had a big wrap on Lorenzo saying the kid could move. "

"Hayne sees things plays before most others. if you know much about him, you would know that he expresses his footy brain very well. Would make a very good coach, if given chances after his Fiji stint. 
Should be welcomed back into the footy fold…"
