Walters, Paix and Mozer.

I guess we’ve got our answer regarding Smoothy.

Mozer, Madden, Hoeter, Willison, Arthars. Interesting.

Walters, Paix and Mozer.

I guess we’ve got our answer regarding Smoothy.

Was it ever going to go any other way?

 

[Santa]

Both teams full strength, this will be a good test to see if we've improved. Shame Walsh is missing.

I think in 2023, Walsh missing will have a big impact on our team.

Walters, Paix and Mozer.

I guess we’ve got our answer regarding Smoothy.

I guess he had his chance...

 

[Cult]

If only those other hookers stepped up when given a chance.

And Sailor.

 

[McHunt]

I wonder if giving Arthars a trial at wing is just a case of giving everyone a go? I'm Jesse's biggest apologist on this board, maybe his only one, and I can't in good faith endorse him over other candidates after this:

Form guide. We haven't won a trial against an NRL opponent since 2019.

Because we usually play cows and tits and they both go as hard as they can in trials.

We even got beaten by Wynnum in 2020.

I reckon it mightn't do us any harm to try a bit harder too.

Some pleasant surprises and shocks in the team. Happy to see Willison, Madden, hoeter and Mozer but shocked not to see sailor especially with Walsh out

They've only picked top 30 players, so in this instance Quai Ward, Bayliss and Jordan P are more notable omissions.

Sailor is only on a T&T. No guarantee that he secures a proper contract although I think he probably will.

Shalom O'Ofou is another T&T player that might get a look in.

 

[Mustafur]

If Sailor takes the final top 30 spot doesn't that mean Smoothy can't play till round 10 anyway?

 

[Johnny92]

Shalom O'Ofou is another T&T player that might get a look in.

Maybe it might be best to keep that last spot open and if a injury happens in the first few rounds to a 9 promote smoothy or if Walsh gets hurt or a half promote Sailor and same deal with O'Ofou.
Unless the 30 has to be filled by round 1.

Solid squad. Will be a good match.
