Message: [QUOTE="Brett, post: 2610330, member: 8361"] My 2c on recruitment... I posted this on LU, so I've just copied and pasted. Appologies if you've already read this. My gut feeling tells me Bennett will sign Hunt, then build a team around him, much like he did with Lockyer. Bennett loves big forwards too, so McGuire might be finding himself out of a spot if he's not careful. Having said that, I'd love to keep him. You start with a core of players: Hunt, Barba, Milford, McCullough. There's your spine. Couple good props: McGuire (?), Hannant (?), Kennedy (?), Mason (?). Throw in the worlds best Lock: Parker (Dodds or Oates to replace him if he's injured etc). I think then Bennett's biggest headache will be the Backrow. Thaiday is lazy, Glenn has not had his best year, but is always safe and toils hard, and Gillett has been injured for a while, but is the worst defender in the NRL. Bennett won't cop the missed tackles. I think the backline kinda picks itself outside of the spine. Copley, Hodges, Vidot, Kahu, Nikorima, Drew, Maranta. I don't see a place for Reed. Ostensibly, the team looks great. I'm very interested to see what Bennett actually does, but my gut tells me he'll build around Hunt, much like he built around Lockyer and Soward. [/QUOTE]
