I'm interested to see what Fittler does. I don't think he'll be a total failure, but any coach is facing a nightmare coming up against one of the best spines of all time.
I thought Cronk was playing on for rep? Or has he not made that call yet?
I'll be happy with Morgan or Munster at 5/8. I just don't think Milford cuts it at that level yet.
I think our draw is good, but 8 Thursday night games is shithouse. I think you'd struggle to find anyone who likes their footy on a weeknight. Can't even get shitfaced.

Looks good to me. I'm surprised we play the Warriors away so early in the season.
There's too many ahead of Hunt who isn't even a natural rake. He can slot in if absolutely necessary but most certainly isn't a first choice when Smith retires.
Good point about Lockyer's influence on other players. I can remember hearing JT speak about playing with Lockyer at the start of his Origin career and being amazed at his resilience physically and mentally. I honestly believe Lockyer had a massive part in Thurston becoming the player that he is...
