Round 2... Jizzy's predicted squad

[eddie]

Was smoking some good stuff

9. Man-U

Where do you score?

Looks like an ideal game to blood Walker into first grade in the 14 off the bench. Let him come on when the heats out of the game.
Benji showed last week that you can play an extra half roaming around with the pace of the game.
Even with a few injuries we should be too strong for the tigers in the backs as they have some really ordinary defenders in Roberts, bj and mbye.

Max Bailey is not contracted to the Roosters, but could eventually be upgraded to a development contract (like he did last year) later this year or if we need special exemption because of injury toll

i wonder if Max is being paid Boyds money which allows him to play. There are rules in relation and one is that the player must be a suitable replacement and match the players position.

Good point - they could use that exemption on young Max. Not sure if the exemption has been given yet - and I don't think if they used that money for Max they would announce that. Will have to see if he pops up as a reserve eventually, for now looks like Hau Tapuha is the next prop down after Baker in the peaking order which makes sense

Just listening to Kent Paul talk about suaali, he reckons robbo would have a certain round pencilled in for his debut. I'd gather the same for walker?

So unless a major injury toll, perhaps mid season there abouts.
