[Huge]

Broncos lineup is only partially right. Oates will not start and in my opinion , Tagatese will be on the bench for the front row interchange with Joe O.

 

[Huge]

Also, who is this Morgan Boyle allegedly starting in the front row for the Titans ?

Young giant. He's promising imo. If I could compare him to someone it would be David Klemmer.

 

[Huge]

Young giant. He's promising imo.

Ok, young I didn't know but giant I could guess ha ha. Any more info ?

 

[Broncs_Fan]

Played 20s for the Raiders. His old man also played for the Raiders. 194 cm. 111 kg. Played 15 games last year. Is only 21.

 

[Broncs_Fan]

Cowboys easily the best team on paper. The best side I have ever seen them put out.

Broncs, Dragons, Roosters, Melbourne, Parramatta and Cronulla all look pretty solid.

Weak: Tigers, Warriors, Manly and Souths.

The rest: Mediocre.

 

[Huge]

Ahh, Boyle senior I remember. Surprising the Raiders let him go but maybe it was a Wallace type situation
Thanks

Actually, the warriors look quite good on paper, you are completely right though, they will be weak.

 

[1910]

Jai Field would be in my Dragons' side, bench or centres. He's dynamic, was great in the 20's last year and in the final at Lang Park was terrific. Long range try for New South Wales in the 20's Origin. He's dynamic and quick thinking.

 

[Black Philip]

Plenty of teams packing heaps of talent this season. The titans will be dangerous at full strength, especially if they manage to nab Tyrone Peachey as well. Losing Hayne is by no means a bad thing for them IMO.

 

[tommy]

Losing Hayne is by no means a bad thing for them IMO.

I haven't seen a single person say that it is.

 

[Super Freak]

Green has said he hasn't ruled out moving Morgan to fullback so Martin can play 5/8.

 

[Sproj]

Here is my power rankings based on loads of data coming out of my gut...which is quite off at present:

1. Cowboys
2. Roosters
3. Storm

4. Broncos

5. Dragons
6. Eels
7. Sharks
8. Raiders
9. Titans
10. Sea Eagles

11. Panthers
12. Warriors
13. Bulldogs
14. Knights

15. Rabbitohs
16. Tigers

 

[Sproj]

Green has said he hasn't ruled out moving Morgan to fullback so Martin can play 5/8.

Where does Coote go?

 

[Broncs_Fan]

Green has said he hasn't ruled out moving Morgan to fullback so Martin can play 5/8.

Martin will not play round 1.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

That Roosters lineup is bald faced criminal
