Guerra averaged 37 mins mostly interchange last season. No reason to think they won't stick with Fitz and Barnett with Glasby/Watson lock

CHN and Jackson averaged 72 mins edges and Elliott 50 mins lock last season. Does Stimson walk into permanent edge role?

I haven't seen myself recently but he seemed to think guerra was lower in the pecking order and had been cruising a bit too much. Can't stress enough though that we hear stuff but don't sit in on selection meetings or get told directly what's happening aside from pressure to get someone back when they are a starter etc, mostly wait to see what's happening at training. This weekend we'll have close to our full strength side and be starting with as close to our round 1 team as possible so should give us a fair idea

I'm also mostly with the younger sides and cup. Should get to do a few games early in the season but which will be cool

Seeing any bolters coming through that we should be watching out for in first grade soon?

Can't see it happening.
He would command a fair bit of coin already. Are the Storm or Roosters going to shell out big money for someone who's never played the game before? Doubtful.
If he did (and I doubt he will do in his prime) make the switch, it'd be with a club willing to take a punt like the Titans, or maybe the Bombers (please change the name) when they enter the comp as a publicity thing.

Much more likely he plays some union in Japan or France because that's where he'll see the most coin but I expect he'll be playing for the ABs through til the next world cup.

Maybe Murray and Su'A starting second row, Murray moves to the middle around 25 when Lowe comes on, Murray comes off at 50 when Knight/Tatola/Burgess come back for their second stint then Murray replaces Su'a at 60-65 to finish up on the edge?

Will be anyones guess how the minutes will be spread out in that pack. Maybe Murray players 80 (25 edge, 30 in the middle, 25 edge)

I personally think he played a lot better at the Sharks than he did at the Knights. He is a walking TB and tries were base stats for him in Cronulla. He will be playing on an edge with SJ, Nikora, Ramien and Dugan I am pretty sure which is lethal as fuck! I am in love with Burns though! I would love to run both.

What's everyone's thoughts regarding starting a POD heavy side with a splash of cheapies?
Players like JFH, Munster,SJ, Smith, Hunt.

Depends who plays in the halves for one thing. I'm still thinking Drinkwater but Clifford put in a decent trial also and would kick goals if selected I'd say. Otherwise I'd say Marsters but I don't have any inside info.

If Murray plays 80 including 30 mins middle, he becomes almost a must have.

Rabbits21 wrote:
Well if Drinkwater gets the goal kicking I’ll put him back in my side.

I am not so sure he will score as well on the edge!

I would still expect him to be heavily involving himself.

You misunderstand me. Clifford would goal kick if he was named to start.
