I don't know what's funnier, all the Rugby players or the fact that Travis Waddell is in the team :lol:
 
I forgot Waddells controversial captaincy off the bench!

Broncos 2018

1. Darius Boyd
2. Winger who we haven't heard of at this time
3. Dale Copley
4. Jordan Kahu
5. Paul Byrnes
6. Anthony Milford
7. Ben Hunt (C)
8. Josh McGuire
9. Andrew McCullough
10. Joe Ofahengaue
11. Matt Gillett
12. Corey Oates
13. Jai Arrow

14. Jayden Nikorima
15. Jarrod Wallace
16. Brett Greinke
17. Random prop -- let's say Gavet

QLD 2018

1. Greg Inglis
2. Valentine Holmes
3. John Folau
4. Will Chambers
5. Darius Boyd
6. Ben Hunt
7. Daly Cherry-Evans
8. Josh McGuire
9. James Segeyaro
10. Dylan Napa
11. Matt Gillett
12. Corey Oates
13. Aidan Guerra

14. Korbin Sims
15. Chris Grevsmuhl
16. Lloyd Perrett
17. Jayden Nikorima

Nb - Didn't forget about Papalii. I just think he looks really shit right now and am not convinced he rebounds. And I just left Gagai out because he'll possibly **** up somehow and we have some decent talent in Holmes and Folau.

I tried to find a spot for Holmes, just thought Boyd & Lee were safer picks.

Sounds like we have some pretty great wingers coming through in Pearson and Terupe.

Boyd definitely is safer but Lee is so inconsistent thus far that he really hasn't got the edge that he should have over a rookie.
 
I wonder how big Kalyn Ponga will be by 2018?

He's probably the most hyped rookie coming through. He's playing in the Mal Meninga Cup Grand Final and he's just turned 17.

He has a lot of hype surrounding him for such a young kid, hopefully he lives up to it; he looks the goods!
