Yeh but we all know Hilder will get a good rating But yeh agree with you, I don't really rate their bench either tbh... Clinton is decent but most teams have strong benches.
If you're not going to put Inglis at FB, Eastwood at lock would be decent acquisition I'd reckon. Not as strong defensively but might add some spark/utility value.
At a glance Pros: Strong 3/4 line Good starting front rowers Cons: 2 organising halves, not a whole lot of creativity Unknowns with a few overseas players
Meh. Freddy picked him, and I'm happy enough with it. Hmm, fair enough. Might do some trades in the second row.
James Roby should provide a fair bit of creativity. Not sure about Keith Senior in the centres either, he seems to be well on the decline.
Props off the bench are one of our stronger points... Cusack left the NRL too early and I think (hope) Rob knows that, same with Cayless. Biggest weakness is defence.... Stewart, Matai & Watmough.
From what I saw he's just getting older and slower. It'll come down more to Rob's opinion than the ESL awards anyway.
