    Dont think we'll be quite that bad, sure we have pretty bad depth and are carrying a couple of players but we sitll have the likes of Folau, Lockyer, Wallace, Thaiday who are no mugs.

    Purtell has some ability as a tryscorer, it doesnt seem that long ago Melbourne offered him 250k to go down there but he stayed with Canberra. Smith on the other hand is just awful unless you want someone to tackle for your life.

    Reckon Purtell and Smith will be in there, Elliott love and all.

    I think for Penrith this year the pressure is really on the forwards, obviously Petero is a legend and he'll do his job but guys like Bell and Grant who the club have invested in over a good period of time need to show they belong this year. If the team is going well then Pritchard will play...

    How do people see Manly doing this year? Any team that have been successful but then loses its captain and halfback could struggle a bit. I reckon they'll do ok but outside of Watmough its hard to see who will step up for them when the pressure is really on, Foran is quality but young, Lyon is...

    Elliott seems to like to use Wade Graham on the bench so it wouldnt surprise me to see 6 Burns 7 Walsh 9 Kingston 14 Graham and then move Burns into the 9 after about half an hour and bring on Graham. Not the worst move imo.

    Yeh hes another talented guy that seems a bit stuck at the moment. Some of these players like the aforementioned Sam Querrey, Jerome Chardy etc... just need to have that one big tournament or result and they might become something. It's also hard for them in that they are seeded so they meet a...

    Naa not seeing it, also as usual its probably going to rely on a good draw, someone drawing Federer in the third round isnt much hope of going anywhere. Another guy I like is Victor Troicki, but I'm just not seeing recent results that are good enough.

    I guess thats why Chardy is still hovering around 30-40 in the world and not in the top 15 where he should be and will eventually be, doesnt look a good summer for him.

    Questions/Idea's/All That Stuff

    Just letting everyone know I'm busy working at getting stats, schedules, squads, databases etc... updated. Whats most likely going to happen is the season proper will start on Wednesday 27th January, however next week will see everyone get a couple of friendlies in each form of the game. Questions?

    Dont think Hodges has the speed or agility to play fullback anymore. He hasn't played the position for three years so I think it would have been a big ask for him, plus he's too dangerous at centre.

    Tait looks in super form again, good thing is he seems to be adapting to the conditions and match situation. Against the Vics his outswingers destroyed them while last night getting his three wickets with bouncers as also good to see.

    His form is hardly outstanding either, I think he's just going to be like Berdych and Karlovic. Capable of good results because of their massive games but just wont have the consistency and ability to make a lot of their careers.

    Chardy looks in horrible form which is a shame as he's the sort of guy that could have been a bolter for a run at the open. As we know pretty much every year theres one player who is a bolt from the blue to make it to the last 4, I'm not really seeing many players likely to do it this year...

    Yeh, lets hope it doesnt mean a return to the Steve Michaels days. Surely between Kemp, Folau, Beale, Hoffman, Winterstein, Yow Yeh and Glenn we can keep him away from the side.
