Potential 2013 teams

Just to get our minds off other things and to add more speculation etc etc:
Sorry if there is another thread about this.
Going off what we have ATM
1\. Tedesco
2\. Ryan
3\. Thompson (worth a trial over Aysh - has strength but not sure about speed)
4\. Lawrence
5\. Koroibete
6\. ??
7\. ??
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Fulton
12\. Pettybourne/BMM
13\. Heighington

14\. Sironen (utility)
15\. Moors
16\. Blair - impact (hopefully!) may benefit from shorter bursts of playing time
17\. BMM/Pettybourne

Still leaves Anasta and Benji in the halves.
I think that team can cater for injuries relatively easy as well. 3 kicking options and potentially 4 with Siro off bench (double what we currently are at full strength!)
Not sure about Bell
Aysh/Moltzen/Utai all gone (not sure about Utai but good teams know how to exploit him defensively).
Obviously it's all speculation but I guess we can dream while everything is in shambles and we have new recruits coming in.

Agree with you on Utai, surprised me it took until round 25 to see some high balls go his way too.

We already have made the buys for 2013, but with Anasta steering us around from 7, tell me who else can play 7?? We need 1 more front rower, hopefully Groat will progress well over the offseason and 1 more centre, perhaps David Nofoaluma may step up.

I ignore anyone who plays for BRET while Tim sheens still coaches. I though we would have seen a lot more of Tim Simona after his great start two years ago.

1\. Tedesco
2\. Nofoaluma
3\. Need a new centre (strong defender)
4\. Lawrence
5\. Koroibete
6\. Benji
7\. Require an organising half (take either Hogkinson or Keating from Dogs)
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Anasta
12\. Blair
13\. Siroren
14\. BMM
15\. Pettybourne
16\. Fulton
17\. Utai (utility)
 
I don't buy into the Utai as a utility role, he is a winger, a good one, but terrible defender.

I think the two best utilities in our future is Moltzen and Sironen.

1\. Tedesco
2\. Ryan
3\. Nofoaluma
4\. Lawrence
5\. Koriobete
6\. Sironen
7\. Marshall
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Blair
12\. Fulton
13\. Anasta

14\. Heigno
15\. Pettybourne
16\. Moors
17\. BMM

Jesus - talk about a stacked team - that STILL Leaves (that I know to be either contracted or still in the mix)

18\. Thompson
19\. Bell
20\. Cashmere
21\. Iosefa
22\. Politini
23\. Grant
24\. Chisolm
25\. Moltzen
26\. Ayshford

The one positive I can see coming out of it is we will have players absolutely fighting for positions come the start of march - with 26 potential player going into 17 spots, not including the likes of Tuqiri and Utai its gonna be an interesting off season….

Where is Benji in this team?
 
Agree with Underdog.
I think Sirro will develop into a good halves player. Play him at 7 though and move Benji back to 6.

Has everyone else had trouble fitting everyone in the side? No matter who I put where it feels like I'm missing out on someone.
 
it's a worry for next year and beyond when Beau Ryan is flagged as our best and marquee back outside of Benji! 😱pen_mouth:

We thought we had a stacked side in 2012

If it isn't coached properly or doesn't meld into a side they will still miss the Eight and finish way down

I really have an awful feeling we will finish bottom 4 in 2013
 
1\. Tedesco
2\. Ryan
3\. Anasta
4\. Lawrence
5\. Koroibete
6\. Sironen
7\. Marshall
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Blair
12\. Fulton
13\. Heighnington

14\. Pettybourne
15\. Murdoch Masila
16\. Thompson
17\. Moltzen

Something Different to think about, thought use Anasta like Jamie Lyon. Thoughts ?

Tim Moltzen/James Tedesco
Matt Utai/Beau Ryan
Chris Lawrence/David Nofoaluma
Bodene Thompson/Blake Ayshford
Marika Koroibete/Joel Reddy
Braith Anasta/Curtis Sironen
Benji Marshall/Jacob Miller
Liam Fulton/Chris Heighington
Adam Blair/Eddy Pettybourne
Ben Murdoch-Masila/Matthew Bell
Aaron Woods/Brent Kite (If Recruited)
Robbie Farah/Masada Iosefa
Keith Galloway/Junior Moors

Left Row Top Thirteen My Bench Would Be: Tedesco,Pettybourne,Kite,Moors
 
This is my line up that I think is realistic based on recent news, and which I think is also good

1\. Tedesco
2\. Ryan
3\. Ayshford
4\. Lawrence
5\. Koroibete
6\. Marshall
7\. Anasta
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Blair
12\. Fulton
13\. Sironen

14\. Pettybourne
15\. Murdoch Masila
16\. Heighnington
17\. Moltzen

Probably ditch one of the bench for a front rower. Cashman?
 
I'm gonna have a crack and my team is a little left field
1.Lawernce (it worked for Inglis & Lawence hasn't found space in the centers for 2 seasons)
2.Koriebete
3.Nofaluma ( might be a gamble defensively but I think these two can form lethal combo on the left edge)
4.Ayshford ( willing to give him another chance
5.Ryan ( solid in the centers and fullback but wing is his best position
6.Sironen ( only if fully fit I think he looked the best partner for Marshall)
7.Marshall (probably the only fan of Benji int the 7 but Farah must be hooker for it to work)
8.Woods
9.Farah
10.Galloway
11.Blair(give him a spell during the game
12\. Fulton
13.Anasta( ball playing lock take pressure off Marshall &Farah especially in kicking)

14.Moltzen
15.Heighnington
16.Pettyborne
17.Murdoch Massila
