Don't understand why you'd continue to have Laulilii at be centre and Craig on the wing. Luke has all the markings of the next To'o. And we're hardly stacked for talented wingers. Think he's too small for centre ultimately

I agree bb.
His best chance of success appears to be as a Brian To’o clone, therefore he would benefit from really developing his yardage carries. No reason why he can’t also do that playing as a centre, but playing on the wing has a lot of specialist aspects such as being safe under the high ball.
Does anyone know why Calvin Levy signed from Manly has not yet featured for Wests SG Ball team ? He looked to be a prototype big, tall & fast winger, I thought he’d be an automatic selection in the starting side ?
Also what’s the story with Nathaniel Gallagher exclusion from the final squad ? He was a City Rep a season or two back, now nowhere to be seen ?
 
Willett's performance against Melbourne was sensational. pleasantly surprised by his ballplaying and his inclination to pass the footy, as opposed to just running over the top of his opposite as most kids his size do.

I'd expect him to move thru the grades pretty quickly given his size and skill. maybe not first grade as yet, but definitely in the next 18 months. pretty excited to see how he fares on Saturday, especially defensively.

The fact he is even getting a run Sunday is good. Means he has impressed Benji enough to earn a run. Would have been easy for Benji to just leave him out and give others more game time.

I am keen to see his progression this year!

one of the boys watched the game last weekend on the WT odcast and gave similar thoughts to you, said he was outstanding at fullback..very tall boy 6 ft 7, bit exciting for the future
 
We're not exactly stacked for wingers this year. If he's as good as you say guys, he may be only a few injuries off getting a start.

He was ball playing on the wing?

14-12 Eels with the lead at half time. Haywood a standout since coming off the bench.

Haywood looks a good prospect, I wonder why he started on the bench ?
Cameron Kanaan scores every game, not sure if he’s what you would call a fluent fullback, but I think he’ll make any easy transition to our Jersey Flegg team as a winger in 2024.
How is he playing today ?

He’s been solid.

Eels in again 26-12.
