There is a lot of negativity going around the forums at the moment, which is understandable given how the team has been going at the moment. However, we have a massive injury toll and it is affecting the way that we are playing. A lot of our injured posse are expected back in Round 8 so we should look forward to possibilities of what our near full-strength side might look like.
Players likely to return:
Parker
Folau (Possibly Round 7)
Yow Yeh
Kemp (Could be round 9 or 10)
If all those players return there is a lot of thinking to do regarding the make up of the side. Obviously Parker and Falou will slot straight back into their respective positions, but if both Yow Yeh and Kemp are available it throws up some interesting questions.
Does Norman retain his position at Fullback with either of Kemp, Yow Yeh or Falou possibly playing in that position?
If Norman holds his spot, who partners Falou in the centres and who are the wingers?
Lots to think about.
Here's what I'd like to see happen:
1. Norman
2. Yow Yeh
3. Winterstein
4. Falou
5. Kemp
6. Lockyer
7. Wallace
8. Kenny
9. McCullough
10. Anderson/Tronc
11. Te'o
12. Thaiday
13. Parker
14. Glenn
15. Gillett
16. Sims
17. McGuire/Anderson
Later in the season when Hodges returns if we are injury free would see Norman make way and either Hodges, Kemp or Yow Yeh take fullback.
Food for though at least.
