J.wright will not be our winger!! He is to wingers what pomeroy was to centres
2014 squad
- Thread starter samshark

True that

Its funny that in those first few games he kept stepping inside, stepping inside. As a centre that worked. As a winger it made him look like a knob

As a winger his defence is even worse he let 3 tries in by coming in, inthe same game. Centre or reggies

Yeah, surprised we're letting him go, he is a talent for sure. Very keen to see Gagan in action as well.

So our recruitment's pretty much done then? Except for maybe a 2nd tier prop for backup or something, here let me have a crack at our 17 then. Keep note, that this is what I think Flanno will go with.
1. Micky Gordon (Our best attacking weapon)
2. Sosaia Feki (Done enough to keep his spot I reckon)
3. Blake Ashyford (Didn't come here to play reserve grade, Flanno would of promised him first grade for sure)
4. Jono Wright (Will probably get first crack, but I think Leutele will take his spot eventually)
5. Beau Ryan (Best winger at the club)
6. Todd Carney (Needs to justify his astronomical pay packet, step up and guide us to a title Toddy)
7. Jeff Robson (Will get first crack me thinks, under massive pressure from Holdsworth though, might force him to lift his game)
8. Andy Fifita (Re-signing this guy is priority number 1, get it done before the season starts)
9. Johnny Morris (Forget what he did in the Semi, if it wasn't for his try-saver against the Cowboys, we wouldn't of even played Manly, played well enough to keep his spot)
10. Sam Tagatese (One of our most improved last season, I cannot wait to see a Fifta/Taga combo carting the ball forward)
11. Luke Lewis (Very happy with his first season for us, hope he recovers quickly from that awful assault by the advertising board)
12. Wade Graham (Another priority re-signing, future captain)
13. Paul Gallen (c) (Club legend......enough said)
14. Matty Prior (Very underrated signing, I think he'll prove to be our most valuable acquisition, so versatile, and I'm with Spanner Shark, could find himself starting)
15. Issac DeGois (I'd prefer Lichaa, but let's face it, Flanno will go with IDG)
16. Anthony Tupou (Earned a truckload of respect from me for re-signing for less money, especially after, let's face it, didn't really live up to the price tag of his old contract)
17. Chris Heighington (Did everything asked of him last year, good value off the bench)
So that's it, i'll probably change my mind a few times, so let me have it guys.

Where did #7 come from? Did I miss something?

I think Holdsworth will be our back up half next year. From all reports he had a woeful season over in the Super league before being released on "companionate ground." I like to reserve my judgement for after they have played a game of football though, so we shall see...
All of the above looks about right to me. The only difference I'd have is that I reckon Flanno will go with Lichaa next year ahead of IDG. I heard they were trying to offload IDG this year, which isn't a great show of faith, and I think Flanno would be acutely aware that if Morris gets injured late in the season, which at his age could happen, and he hasn't by then got Lichaa not only blooded, but getting combinations happening, then he will be left with IDG as a starting hooker, and a green rookie on the bench.
If he starts Morris/Lichaa, then IDG can be the bench hooker again and slot right in should one of the other two get injured.

Holdsworth wants the number 7 and flanno come out and said if he shines in the pre season he can move robbo to hooker
