We have so many options next year in the forwards. Certainly think in season past we've being far too light in this area now where starting to have some good depth to the squad. Looking on I'm very pleased with our recruitment this year.

You don't think Watts will be your lock?

No idea I'm not the new coach. But we could possibly have Murrell, Watts, Galea or even Mika at loose.

Gosh. How much are you paying the academy lads in there? Was that what Clint Newton was referring to in his rather scathing comments on this topic?

Nonetheless, very impressive. Best set of forwards in SL, I understand. Champion. Can we have Wheeldon back? Unlikely to get a game with all that lot and we have no depth whatsoever.

What's the saying about sarcasm and wit?

We all know it's not the best set of forwards in the league but what it is, is a massive improvement on previous years. We've now got a lot more strength in depth which will help massively when we get the expected injuries during the season. All we can ask for is improvement and if we get that year on year then alot of Robins will be very happy.

Lock? Have you gone native? Never forget your roots young man.






If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Frederick Douglas

If Sandercock follows the patterns at the Knights for the last few years he will use a prop in the number 13 to start the game who will do hit ups and defend in the middle for about 30 minutes, and then bring on a more traditional wide running second rower for the rest of the game.

We've let four members of our pack go and introduced nine new faces. On the face of it I'd say where a lot stronger.

Outs
Vella, Newton, Fisher, Cook

Ins
Horne, O'Hara, Withers, Carlisle, Mika, Ollett, Griffin, Paea, Green.

8) Paea
9) Withers
10) O'Hara
11) Horne
12) Griffin
13) Mika

Not a bad pack just from recruits :)

Scott Murrell (2012)



Unless Murrell looses some weight and shines in preseason I cannot see the new coach favouring him as much as the previous coach, we have some good young kids coming through and I would put Watts in at loose leaving Murrell with no obvious route into the first team.
