In the CM today, griffin saying that Norman and Wallace are in front of Prince at the moment

I wonder if he's starting to go insane, or it's just an awful attempt at some kind of mind game tactics.
 
I reckon he's telling porkies. Prince will be our go to guy this season. Can't wait to have a half with some creativity in them!
 
In the CM today, griffin saying that Norman and Wallace are in front of Prince at the moment and Kemp is a real chance of getting a wing spot and is only not playing today because he has already played 2 trials.

Also in another article I read, griffin said not to worry to much about the team for round 1 as there is 26 rounds. To me that means he is already planning on changing our halves regularly. Which I think is not a good idea, unless they are underperforming.

F***! Seriously just f***! I have been one of griffins biggest supportors but if this is anything other than mind games I give up on him.
 
After last night's trial, and the position of venus I'd be going with the following. Was tempted to drop Macca entirely and Norman, who needs to spend some time dominating Q Cup and regaining that word called confidence...

1. Hoffman
2. Maranta
3. Reed
4. Hodges
5. Yow Yeh (but whoever until he gets back and/or if he cant get back)
6. Wallace
7. Prince
8. Hannant
9. Hunt
10. Thaiday
11. Glenn
12. Gillett
13. Parker

14. McCullough
15. McGuire
16. Squad Member
17. Squad Member
 
The CM wrote it as if Norman and Prince are battling it out for the 6 jersey to partner Wallace in the 7.
 
My team:

1. Hodges
2. Kemp
3. Reed
4. Kahu
5. Maranta
6. Wallace
7. Prince
8. Hannant
9. McCullough
10. McGuire
11. Glenn
12. Thaiday
13. Parker

14. Hunt
15. Gillette
16. Stagg
17. Hala
 
i'd love to see hodges at the back.

if prince isnt our starting #7 then there is something seriously wrong with griffin.
 
Scotty prince has to be starting in the halves this year. Im a big fan of hook but that's just fucked if he isn't starting. Would give some Lockyer type guidance as well.

If he's planning on rotating Prince and Norman as well as McC & Hunt he's lost the plot.
 
2013 Squad

1. Norman
2. Hoffman
3. Hodges
4. Reed
5. Kahu
6. Prince
7. Wallace
8. Hannant
9. McCullough
10. McGuire
11. Glenn
12. Thaiday
13. Parker
14. Gillett
15. Anderson
16. Timu (played Capras last night and was heads and shoulders over any playeron the field).
17. Hunt
 
He's still a good centre, incumbent for England, as good as a Dane Nielsen, Will Chambers, Willie Tonga level centre - probably better than a 2nd rower playing centre, like Beau Scott.

A) Being an incumbent for England is not at all an achievement. It's England.
B) Will Chambers shits on Reed so hard it's not even funny. I actually think Reed is quite a solid centre and does some handy things but Chambers is light years ahead of him.
 
No doubt Hodges would be outstanding at fullback but moving him leaves a centre line very weak IMO. It is a lose/lose situation if we move him IMO. I think our forward pack will get the job done for us 9 times out of 10 this season but our backs don't look great. We don't seem to have the quality we once had. Hook really needs to pick a winner with his halves combo. Prince must be in the starting team and stay fit along with Hodges.
 
My squad for opening day would look something like this:

1-Hoffman
2-Kemp
3-Reed
4-Hodges
5-Berryman
6-Norman
7-Prince
8-McGuire
9-McCullogh
10-Dodds
11-Glenn
12-Thaiday
13-Parker
14-Capewell
15-Stagg
16-Gillett
17-Hala/Andersen/Lui


Obviously Hook's side will b vastly different but if we want to move forward then Hannant, Wallace and Hunt should not be a part of the coach"s plans. At least one of these guys (if not 2) will b at a different club by season's end. I struggle to see where the points r going to come from, defense will always be steady but there isn't an ounce of firepower in this squad. Methinks it will b a tough season, I see people talking up their premiership chances which is laughable indeed, realistically if this side can scrape into the Top 8, it would probably be the shock of the season. RL is a very difficult sport to predict so I could b way off (hope I am) but I am pretty confident we Bronco fans will have a lot to gripe about this year.

No hannent? Really???? Like really are you being f***ing serious??? I know I'll cop s*** for this and everyone is entitled to their opinion but gee i don't know what else to say to that. While we're at it lets drop smith for origin this year, he's bloody rubbish
