    SQUAD: Josh Aloiai, Michael Chee Kam, Joel Edwards, JJ Felise, Tim Grant, Watson Heleta, Justin Hunt, Jamal Idris, Chris Lawrence, Jack Littlejohn, Jeremy Marshall-King, Esan Marsters, Matt McIlwrick, Kevin Naiqama, David Nofoaluma, Jordan Rankin, Ava Seumanufagai, Tim Simona, Bayley Sironen, Sauaso Sue, Moses Suli, Elijah Taylor, James Tedesco, Aaron Woods

    UNAVAILABLE: Mitchell Moses (Ankle Bone Bruising – Return Round 1), Luke Brooks (Dental Surgery – Return Round 1), Matt Ballin (Knee – Return Round 1-2), Jacob Liddle (Shoulder- Return Round 1-2), Ryland Jacobs (Knee – Return Round 1)

    Trouble for hookers? We've named 4 guys who are hookers or played hooker in 2016 - Marshall-King, McIlwrick, Rankin, Taylor

    I think Littlejohn might even come under consideration too.

    Anyone who starts round 1 with Ballin in their side is a braver man than me.

    The only thing worse than a 32 man squad, is a 32 man sqaud in alphabetical order so you can't even begin to workout a likely starting 13 until the game is actually played

    Pretty happy with the changes i was able to make thanks to moving some guys from front row into 2ndrow. I still might swap out Fifita and strengthen centre. At this stage ill swap the NQ FRer for whoever i think will get most minutes (Kaufusi/Hoare/Spina). I watched a bit of the Storm trial the other day and Bromwich though named at 2nd row was playing in the middle(as he did 90% of last year) and now he has been named there for this trial im leaning towards Felise getting Proctors spot

    Smith/King
    Fifita/Matagi/Kaufusi/Kaufusi
    Surgess/McGuire/Wallace/Sione/Kennedy/Capewell
    Norman/Moses/Elgey/Hingano
    Idris/Whare/Kelly/Olive
    Tedesco/Hayne/RTS/Jennings/Phythian

    i was more just referencing that the two first choice hookers at the club were in doubt for round 1.

    Do you have enough time to talk him up preseason before you don't select him?

    Cordner in for Matterson and is that round 1 team?

    or will they move Napa into starting team for Liu?

    if Guerra can keep that starting lock spot he might jump into consideration

    But how many minutes does he get there? I doubt he'd play the 80

    edit: just realised kurt baptiste is out for a long period.. hmm..
    He played 80min most weeks last year even with baptiste iirc. Granted, it wasn't 80 at hooker but he still stayed on the paddock scoring. As for what the bench will look like who knows, could be Turner, Clydesdale or something a bit more out there like LCroker as a utility or could be four forwards

    If I had to guess Cordner slots straight in for Matterson and this is a chance to figure out the reserves. Would have thought Napa starts over Liu but Robinson might want some more impact off the bench. In this case Cordner and Aubbo likely play 80, Guerra and Carter rotate through lock, Evans and Napa through Prop and Watson gets some minutes at hooker

    Less time on the field for Carter = less penalties? Laughing
