McBride's like "oh FFS."

 

[Keystone agony]

Doubt he plays in the official one and maybe even missed the unofficial but id like to see him have a half there especially if HJ isnt ready for it

2 goals in the far weaker side impressive today

"Do the tooth's teeth have teeth too?"

Thought he kicked those goals once switched to the stronger side.

 

[Keystone agony]

Why

We would likely be picking our best 22 considering its the only official match and also that its the game just ahead of round 1

If HJ isnt going to be right then that changes things as does any player thats missing from best 22

Yep.

Going off the front on pic I presume it's Perkins also.

Perkins cut his hair. That would be Durham most likely.

 

[bennyg12]

Any chance Rd 1

 

[andleanback]

Any chance Rd 1

Genuine small chance if he performs well in preseason games, with Harry having a few niggles.

He did

 

[ghostdog]

I just want Baldwin to break into the team and kick goals so we don't blow the loot on chasing Ben King

100%

Imagine if we have turned up a generational talent with pick 1000

Really would free up the war chest

No pressure Kaine LOL

 

[yodellinhank]

He did

Well then its obvious, we are better off playing him in our best 22.

 

[ghostdog]

If Kaine displaces anyone, at the moment it would have to be Francis. Wright obviously stays as ruck support. Jones has looked every bit a forward for the future while Francis has struggled.

I think the forwardline looks some thing like this;

FF: Smith - Wright - Jones
HF: Perkins - Baldwin - Snelling

I'd like things to work for Francis but I'm not confident they will. Baldwin's trajectory of development is closing fast on him.
