Wells has talent - went okay in a struggling first team in 2017. Was very impressive in the 19s grand final that year. Think the club rate him highly.
Field - played games in 2017 and showed talent I thought, had a good spell against saints away at one point. Looked out of his depth this year in his couple of games. Not big enough for the front row. Thought he may get released.
Barnes - been in the first team squad two years I think but yet to play. Don’t know much about him. Think 2019 is the last year of his deal.
Kibula - can be anything he wants if he applies himself. Obviously immense size which we need but is also a good ball player. Is his work rate in D good enough? Needs a great Pre-season.
Paisley - played above his weight last year. Was impressed with him. Wire at home he went particularly well in. Him and wells will be competing for game time.
Partington - at first was confused as to why he was getting picked over Kibula. But this guy is a real “wane” type of forward. Really aggressive - not scared of anyone. Think he’ll force his way into the team next year and maybe even replace Clubb/flower in a couple of years.
Love talking young players, like has been said bringing these lads through is the key to success. Rather than big money signings. These lads that come through play with so much passion for the club.
Also looking forward to see how Woods and Forsyth progress.
