Message: [QUOTE="Sproj, post: 3464667, member: 8423"] I think you can get away with some youngsters as your backs depth because they don’t take the brunt of the big guys guys in the middle but the backs are where we have a bit of solid depth in Pereira and Arthars. The issue is there isn’t much experience or maturity in the forwards and already, three of them are likely out in Haas, Robati and Hetherington. Hopefully Frei does a Hosking because the times I’ve seen him in Cup, he’s been impressive but that said, he isn’t currently in the squad. Williston’s shoulders also have questions on them, and seems a bit injury prone. Peek’s disappointed everyone in the backend of last season and is also an injury magnet. Palasia might have already checked out and he’s the one solid depth bloke who is already required round 1 being likely down three forwards. So round 1 looks like: 8. Flegler 10. Jensen 11. Capewell (who didn’t get surgery either so let’s hope the shoulder has healed on its own) 12. Riki 13. Carrigan 15. Palasia 16. Willison (I guess) 17. Piakura (I guess) Out: Haas (likely) Robati Hetherington Meaning depth is basically: Te Kura (very exciting but really raw) Bayliss-Brow (total unknown) Frei (if signed) So if you consider that we were already light on in terms of forwards to backs ratio, we could be in trouble.
