Team v's Canberra

[Waylander]

I like it. I love SST working a little wider out on the right, hopefully we can get him one on one with Croker a few times.

Looking forward to seeing what Collins can do.

Happy to see Keary and Watson positional selections and with Smith and Collins on the bench. Seems Vic Radley will miss out again. Butcher gets the huge wraps but I think more highly of the Bronte local Radley.

[fletch]

wouldn't be at all shocked to see Cornish start, his kicking/organisational game compliments Keary better than Watson.

Interesting no room for Carter.not sure what to make of that. I must be a bad footy judge cause everytime I see him play I'm impressed by his aggression and high workload

[Tommy Smith]

The Cornish Pasty can get revenge on his old club by having a blinder for us.

I'm almost certain that won't be how we run out.

Can we also assume that Carter is done as a Rooster? A career in the RWB up there with the likes of Steve Crouch, Georgie Azzi and Mark Leafa.

Axe to grind against his old club too? Guessing Smith's our utility though...

STILL! Pre-season people heckled me on here and said Cornish would never get a go. I'd love to be dishing out servings of humble pie... with my special dollop of whipped cream.

Has Carter been misbehaving again?

I was hoping that Robbo wouldn't have to resort to weakening the back row even further by putting Aubo in the centres. But I guess with a couple of guys out we had no option. The backline at least look solid with Aubo there and Manu can hide his bad defense even more on the wing.

No idea but if he isn't injured then it sure ain't a good sign that he's been overtaken by half a dozen players in the pecking order.

[fletch]

Carter not named for Wyong either

Radley and Butcher both named in the starting side for the NSW U/20's to play the curtain raiser before Origin 1, don't think either plays against the Raiders in any grade.

It probably didn't help Carter that he was out with SKD the night he was caught.

not sure either of them plays first grade for the Roosters ever again

I'm glad he picked Aubo in the centres as I feel we have more depth in the back row than the backs. Obviously if SKD was not stood down for however long he could select him.

I think you're on the money. Cornish is a much better fit, has a better pass and a decent kicking game

Fact or did this come from where the sun don't shine?
