hey there winny good to see you over here mate

Kane still looks to be out of favour with Walters. Bosc is out for Sunday, McGuire goes to half with Baile starting at hooker! Dunno what he has to do to get a start. Maybe better for him to be loaned to another club?

Yes, just read that elsewhere. Could be 2 or 3 weeks. Buggery

If the Dragons coaching staff can re-boot Chris Walker's career like they did with Greg Bird then a place in the Top 4 is not out of the question. Walker was arguably the fastest man in NRL a couple of seasons ago and if he can keep himself fit and off the booze and with Steve Bell inside him providing the ammunition he could score a hatful of tries. Raguin played in the 2nd row off and on when he returned from injury last season and may have to settle for that again, although their is more competition for places in the pack than in any other Super League team (bar Leeds perhaps).

The Dragons have a front row with a similar make-up to the Rhinos with an average of over 30 and I can see Walters using the younger improving trio of Casty, Bentley and Fakir to conserve the older legs.

I could not put chris walker in some league as greg bird, walker has some massive brain explosions on the field.

It is going to be tough without bosc at wakefield who will be out for revenge, one thing i do like is fakir as a possible front rower he has the aggression to be one of the best.

You would think that bentley would move to 9 and casey to 7, but if baile is not in centres he may play 9.

I am a little sceptical of the backs, being a manly fan steve bell is rubbish steps inside all day and a hog, while sa has done nothing in a black or roosters jumper but i reserve jugdement, they may surprise.

Again there strength is there pack full strength it will look like this johnson, mounis, elima, ferriol, mcguire, gussiet then guys like fakir, carlaw, gossard, touxagas, casty and k bentley. Dallas johnson is a fine recruit.



When the likes of carlaw, baile, touxagas and k bentley cannot make full strength team then top 4 is a must.



I predict a slow start to the season again much like last year.

In his absence who will kick goals ? Mounis ? Greenshields ? I think I heard somewhere that Walker has kicked in the past.

Looks likely to be Walker.



Ferriol is in doubt, Mounis starting at hooker, Baile on the bench & Bentley is 18th man



Elima captain

Greenys now in doubt for this arvo due to illness!
