In your head, rent free
Don't really know how this works. Can you take players from outisde your 25 man list? If so, who? Can it be anyone?

you have to have a certain amount of your "stars" going over

we can easilly compensate that by sending bird, val, feki, graham, cleeland (next darren lockyer) ect

then you can make the team up with also rans

from memory we sent houma and co last year

considering players like fittler and kenny nagas played I guess it can be anyone

Yeah I know. Wasn't sure if they had to get special permission for that.

I think its two or three of your top 5 highest paid. Bit of flexibility there though if some of those guys are 'injured'.

So I imagine Wade, Barba and Fifita or Maloney will be on the way over again.

If we wanted a gimmick then get Rat onboard to play a game with Rat Jnr.

I don't care if we don't win, it's a nothing tournament. I just want to see some entertaining play from us.

Considering the team are hopefully premiership outsiders, we shouldn't be putting too much on the line in the nines. Send a second string side with the handful of obligatory top graders and throw everything into training and gelling next year for a premiership tilt.

Bunnies win Premoership, win Nines the next year. Cows win Nines, win Premiership next year.

Success can go hand in hand. Win the Nines, pocket the money.
