Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 2915164, member: 9052"] Looking at the round 1 team and their respective preseasons there's probably only a handful that got a full preseason in and they looked the freshest out there. TPJ the exception who looked a beast out there whilst backing up from the world cup 1. Boyd missed the world cup. Then niggling hammy injuries prevented any trials 2. Oates was transitioning to a second rower minimal trial time then played second half of the last game on the wing. 3. Roberts played trials can't recall any preseason issues and is looking pretty good to go 4. Kahu missed world cup due to surgery. Had zero trial time in the centres 5. Isaako played well in the trials probably started preseason in November 6. Milf surgery and rehab resulted in playing one trial for 35mins... expected to transform his game with a new halves partner 7. Kodi played world cup returned January had appendicitis missing another two weeks. Playing a new position with a completely new role 8. Lodge full preseason but hasn't played NRL for 3 years. I thought he played well 9. Macca no trials and been rehabbing since august last year 10. Sammy getting on in age and having to play a new position he's not entirely suitable for. I noticed as well with him starting at 9 he played the first 30mins of the game in the middle 11. Glenn missed the world cup so probably had a longer preseason than most. Played the 80 from memory and got what we expected 12. Gillett world cup played one trial and looked very rusty 13. McGuire as above but looked less rusty. Probably just not as involved as usual maybe under done 14. TPJ played world cup but looks to have come back a beast. Seems to be against the norm 15. Offa played world cup. Watching his game again I think he played reduced minutes for some reason Sammy and Lodge played out first 30 before he came on then I believe he was off by the 60min 16. Sims missed world cup and seemed to be in rehab for a long time. Seemed to play reduced mins similar to Offa 17. Sua probably had the whole preseason looked strong in the trials but was only given the last 15-20 of the game. [/QUOTE]
