Yep... they've taken up their spots in the Sydney boys club

I think billy is our best utility, I’d start mozer and if hunt ends up at 9 at some point I think Billy will have to drop out of the 17.

I think Billy needs to drop out completely and Mozer start at 9. Bring in Paix or Smoothy that have better running games.

I trust madge to put the best player in each position (not based upon personal relationships).
If he believes that's billy for now so be it.

I think the idea will be get rid of Madden and then Billy goes into halves as a cheap backup, then play Mozer at 9 depending on whether Hunt is needed to play in the halves.

I would be surprised if our Hooker rotation isn't Billy and Mozer to begin with, Hunt surely at 6.

Madden and Paix need to be offloaded but Madden is probably the only one that has market value to do so.

If Madge feels Paix is good though it could solve most of our cap issues as Billy would be much easer to find a team for than Paix would be.

Seem to recall Madge saying he wanted Paix to stick around, can’t recall him saying the same about Billy or Smoothy.

Billy is relatively old for a solid NRL player who isn't a star, I'm not sure he would be that easy to shop around.

He should be, he has played regular first grade for several seasons now.

Think that was said about Paix because he was told he could look elsewhere before Madge got here and it's basically a clean slate now to prove your position in the team. Similar to Hetherington
