In terms of attacking shape he seems to suggest Drinkwater will play a more central role and Williams will be the main attacking threat on both sides of the field, rather than employing the (now) traditional left / right split of the half backs. That would leave Dufty to play to his own strength which would be backing up / offering a running threat.

What will help our attack no end next season is that we now have a second rower in fitzgibbon who is prepared to run off the ball and take out 2/3 defenders just like Waterhouse used to do. I just hope he can stay injury free, he's an outstanding player.

Yep ... he looks good to me. Surprised he's leaving NRL.
Looking forward to seeing what he can do.

It appears he is back from his self imposed exile.



I wish he had made that promise years ago, we could have avoided all those crap performances.

Lot of love from SB re Jordy Crowther, do you think he gets a starting slot, I can see him being a SB player but who does he displace Currie or Nicholson.

Currie centre perhaps? Or at least competition for his place.

Nicholson needs to really kick on as well

I think he will be good at Loose Forward.

Basically, there are 4 players, Currie, Fitzgibbon, Nicholson and Crowther leading the charge for 3 starting and 1 interchange place. There may be times that the coach chooses to play a prop, such as Kasiano, at the back but for the most part it's probably just a case of whether Nicholson starts and Crowther comes off the bench, or vice versa.

The biggest question must be about who our centres will be. I know that Tai won't be here until after Christmas but is King back yet? SB's comments around Wrench would certainly suggest that he's staked a strong claim during their absence.

tai arrived today, king is in training next monday

Do you fancy a tasty Tai Currie combination in the centres, then?
