I would’ve thought fox, just for his seniority and the fact that his position is less physically demanding.

Sending them high in the sky.
Only possible iasue is he is on one aide od the field, rather than spread across the entire field.
I've always thought RFM could make a good captain as he's very quietly spoken and a cool head.

Sounds like Ciraldo is getting on top of everything early. He's met with different players and one of them was Kyle for coffee.
I really want Kyle to succeed, you can see how much effort he puts in.. with another full pre season with the first grade team you just never know.

Gus and co have been making heaps of depth/lower grade signings which I'm sure you guys have been noticing! Very interesting..

Mates, I reckon JAC will go close to player of the world cup...what an excellent try against New Zealand!

How crazy will it be if JAC gets player of the tournament.. I haven't watched the full games but he's been the face of just about every win.
In other news, apparently Alamoti is set to re-sign for a couple more seasons.

Hard not to pick him given he's a try scoring machine. But probably Cleary or someone will nab it.

Manu got it.. Apparently Cleary and Munster are still finding their feet as a combo.. can't be doing too bad considering NZ played really well
Even though NZ got knocked out earlier? Wow.

I've barely even heard his name mentioned, although I haven't watched the full games.
Yeah I didn't want more than 1 or 2 games. Too early in the AM.

after watching the Fox's highlights from the world cup I do believe he could be our fullback, he's got a pass in him, his kicks ain't terrible.. I mean the guy is just a player, and the more he has the ball, the better.
He's also played with Slater and Teddy, so he knows what is required to be a current top line 1.

I just wonder if running all game will lessen his impact. He's good in open space, but I'm not sure he's 100% safe under the high ball, nor is the ball player we need back there.

I think he's safe enough under the high ball, and he's no better no worse than Papenhuyzen with his ball-handling, I can't recall him ever missing the mark at pace or in traffic..
I think if he put his hand up he'd do a good job.. he works hard enough and coming from that Storm system where he played with Billy and Papenhuyzen he'd know what's required.

Already looking good and still plenty of pre-season to go.
Bloody hell... have a go at Skelton and Alamoti! Two absolute specimens!

I just hope there's still as much emphasis on versatility.. it's one thing to look like that but it's another thing to be able to move.. although Skelton with his background and watching him in Cup I'd imagine puts plenty of emphasis on that.

I'm getting a bit over the Josh Reynolds circus. It's good that he's back at the club but anybody who thinks he will play first grade obviously hasn't been paying any attention.
