Predicted Round 1 team 2021

[Thirteen]

Why do you think that? Because of our bid for the NRL to allow him to play? I hope we don’t rush him because of the hype.. let the kid get settled and build confidence first.

Do you really think the coach will rush him cause there’s a whole lot of publicity about him? Do you not have much faith in Robbo?

[The Skeez]

I think Keighran is most likely to get a run, as he is a good goal kicker.

Watched this the other day and made me think he’s a chance for the bench. Can fill a lot of spots. Good utility value

[Kelvin Johnson]

With the two pensioners in the backline there will no doubt be plenty of opportunity for Sualli and Smith. And let’s not forget Iku.

Twins Lani Graham-Taufa and his brother Moala are in the mix as well if needed after Round 10.
But, more likely next year when the "pensioners" retire.

Tell me about them please mate. Big blokes? What are their strengths?

And that’s why 3 grades on Sat & Sun games will be good

[Henry P is a cheat]

Assuming Cordner, Radley and Verrills are not ready for Rd1.

It will never happen mate unless the NRL fund it. The salary cap would have to go to at least 13 million per club & that's a low end number probably more like 14 to 15 million per club & that just wont happen

Without Cordner, Radley and Verrills that will be very close to what the Rd1 team will be. Maybe Freddy Lussick but I think Keighran has the jump on him because he kicks goals.

Not as big as Suaaliii, but big enough. Moala is the gun, he played fullback last year in SG Ball and Lani played wing number 2.

Hope so.

Lol at fox sports’ attempt at predicting our round 1 line up. I get that Radley and verrills may not be ready straight away but suaalii on bench? Hutch at 7 over Lam?

here is their latest attempt:

1 James Tedesco 2 Daniel Tupou 3 Josh Morris 4 Joseph Manu 5 Brett Morris 6 Luke Keary 7 Drew Hutchison 8 Jared Waerea-Hargreaves 9 Jake Friend 10 Isaac Liu 11 Angus Crichton 12 Sitili Tupouniua 13 Siosiua Taukeiaho 14 Joseph Suaalii 15 Lindsay Collins 16 Daniel Suluka-Fifita 17 Nat Butcher

[OMR]

It was obviously picked after one of those 4-6 hours lunches

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Hutch will be a Bear and Suaalii won't see top 17 for a while.

[NorthChook]

I think Keighran will take that 14 spot as a utility until Verrills is back - with a lot of game time out I wonder if Verrills and Radley will have a game for the bears
