It was obviously implied. I was unaware we were counting the fullbacks at clubs who are affiliated with us though.

HE was cut loose by Canterbury but Sunshine Coast product Patrick Templeman is more determined than ever to make the NRL big time.
The 21-year-old will play for Wynnum-Manly in the Intrust Super Cup next year after being told his services weren't required at Belmore.
He failed to break through this year after scoring more than 300 points for the club in the Toyota Cup (under-20s) the previous season.
"I guess you could say it went a little pear-shaped but I'm very excited to be back up here in familiar surroundings and I'm looking forward to doing a big pre-season and then hopefully a big year," he said.
"I'm still young and still hungry so I'm definitely still keen on chasing the NRL dream."
Templeman's manager Shaun Pyne told the Daily last week that North Queensland had invited him to pre-season training at Townsville but he opted to join the Seagulls who are linked to the Brisbane Broncos.
"It's a path (into the Broncos) but there are plenty of opportunities here and plenty of people watching (from other NRL clubs) so all I can do is train hard and hopefully have a big year," he said.
The former Sunshine Coast Sea Eagles (now Falcons) player said his time during the three-year stint in Sydney had been pivotal for his development.
"I grew up a lot and learned a lot about footy," he said.
"I've been coached by some of the best coaches in the game (Des Hasler) and learned from some of the best players (Mick Ennis) so it was definitely a positive experience.
"This year didn't go the way I would have wanted it to but the previous two years (in under-20s) were probably the best two footy years of my life."
Templeman will link with former Sunshine Coast team-mate Mitchell Buckett at Wynnum.
Buckett was with South Sydney but linked with the Seagulls a year ago after failing to make his NRL debut at Redfern.
"I get to play with Mitch again which is something I'm very excited about," Templeman said.
"WE'RE pretty good mates. He gives me a lot of confidence and I know the way he plays so I'm looking forward to getting back with him.
"Things didn't work out like he would have wanted to either and he's come back up here and had a massive year this year and he'll be looking to build on that again next year. We both give each other a lot of confidence so hopefully we can bounce off each other."

He joined Wynnum-Manly specifically to get recognized and try and get a contract with the Broncos.. I think we're allowed to count him as depth at Fullback.
Pretty handy depth, knows how to score points.

Ferguson given permission to train with Roosters. No contract registered though.
Blake Ferguson cleared to train for Sydney Roosters
Blake Ferguson cleared to train for Sydney Roosters
Troubled rugby league player Blake Ferguson has been cleared to train with the Sydney Roosters, moving him a step closer to an NRL return.
Ferguson has been granted permission by the NRL to train with the 2013 premiers but has not had a contract registered, News Corp reported on Friday.
The Roosters said they sought the green light from the NRL out of professional courtesy and he began training with the squad this week.
"There has been no other movement, in terms of contract registration. They have just allowed him to commence training," Roosters chief executive Brian Canavan said.
Ferguson was sacked by the Canberra Raiders last year after he was found guilty of indecently assaulting a woman in a Cronulla nightclub.
The Roosters attempted to register a contract for the wayward former NSW State of Origin back earlier this year however the bid was rejected by the NRL.
It is expected he will officially sign with the Roosters and be cleared for a playing return in the near future.

His only hurdle will be if the NRL will register him or not but I expect they will.

Reckon the ***** will regret this one. Moga has a brighter future and isn't as stupid as Blake.
Not that the Cowboys will be conplaining.

Loving the Roosters fans on their high horse today. Talking shit about kirisome auva'a on the day they allow Ferguson back. Bunch of hypocrites.

Ferguson is so much better than Moga it isn't funny. Ferguson maybe a dickhead but he is a very talented player that would be a star in any team.

He certainly isn't as stupid, which could contribute to a brighter future, but Ferguson is more talented IMO. And then there's defence, where Moga makes him look like Paul Bowman in comparrison.

They'll probably register him on a base salary as well.

Ferguson is arguably more talented than Moga, true, but he makes SKD look like Einstein in comparison.

Srama unwanted by the Titans.
Would love to him at the Broncos.

Yes please. So much better than Waddell.
I cannot comment on Parcell, as I've literally seen about 10mins of him playing. But any competition for Macca at minimum wage is good, particularly as we don't have any capable and NRL experienced hookers to back up McCullough.

I dunno what's been happening with Srama lately, but I thought he was a massive talent and potentially an Origin player in his first couple of years. Considering I rate McCullough about as highly as I rate Thaiday, and then that I rate Waddell as highly as I rate watching the grass grow, I'd welcome him too.
