As long as possible imo YowYeh/hodges and izzy/winter needs to be kept where possible. From the stands at the Dragons Final last year it looked like both sides competed. Yow/Hod drags the guy back to ingoal Izz/Win do the "we can do that to" its healthy and awesome for Brisbane.
We need it imo

Where has Winterstein been this season?
We can only hope that with that much talent in the backline, everyone has to play like machines each week to keep a spot. I can see a fair bit of rotating going around for the first few weeks though.

I think they've just rewarded him for his season last year (he played every game didn't he?) and gave him a longer rest in the offseason. He's considered a certainty to play round 1 so just give him one trial to work out some cobwebs and that'll do.
Which clearly indicates they don't intend playing him in the centres too.
I would say Henjak is pretty definite that Kemp and Winterstein will play wing in round 1. Corey Norman or Josh Hoffman seem set for fullback.
Israel Folau will be one centre, for sure.
Other centre will come down to Gerard Beale, Alex Glenn, Steve Michaels or Ben Te'o I'd say.
The question is what will happen when first Yow Yeh and then Hodges return from injury. Who will drop out?
Yeah, I don't think they'd rush Yow Yeh into the starting side, he'll come back to Q Cup. But assuming he rips it up there I think Henjak would have trouble leaving him out of the first grade side.
As I said, competition for spots. It's fantastic! Something we haven't had much, especially in the backline, for years! It's always a case of someone underperforming and everyone demanding they get dropped and then you think who could replace them? And you draw a blank.
No shortage of options this year.

Yep, could be another 1991. Struggled along but the likes of Carne, Renouf, Hohn, Gee etc really stepped up and got some valuable experience. We all know what happened in 1992...
And that doesn't mean we'll miss the finals this year. Even in 1991 we finished 7th out of 16.
