Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2468270, member: 1899"] I reckon the wing spot is probably the most open of any at the club. Copley will certainly occupy one wing but the other is pretty much wide open with Maranta maybe just ahead in the pecking order. I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see [B]Delroy Berryman[/B] end up there. Granted, he's going to have to make waves during the trial but he could be a real bolter. Up-front, I really liked what I saw of [B]Jarrod Wallace[/B] when he came into our Origin depleted side. Still a bit raw, especially with his defence but has plenty of power and can bend the line back. A combination of him and Hala working at tandem off the bench could be fantastic. If Hook is looking for a direct replacement for Te'o, I reckon [B]Corey Oates[/B] is the closest we've got at the club. Tall, rangy, runs fantastic lines and has the mobility to play in the centres, I see big things in his future. Personally, I'd love to see Hook reconsider the bench utility spot and give either [B]Kurt Baptiste[/B] or [B]Jake Granville[/B] the opportunity to impress. Both could provide the energy we sorely lack when Macca comes off and even bamboozle the defence with their differing approach to the ruck. I could keep waxing lyrical about our players all day so I'll stop before I do. I just hope fans realise that despite the departures, we still have some very talented players at the club and have a lot to be proud of. Oh and since I'm ill and kind of bored I thought I'd do a list of bolters through the years. 2002: Steve Irwin 2003: Nobody (Scott Minto later on) 2004: Karmichael Hunt 2005: Leon Bott 2006: Shane Perry 2007: Joel Moon 2008: Reece Robinson 2009: Antonio Winterstein 2010: Matt Gillett 2011: Jack Reed 2012: Nobody (Jarrod Wallace later on) [/QUOTE]
