Blake Ayshford
Bryce Gibbs
Gareth Ellis ( hard to believe he could improve on last season)
Mitch Brown
Andrew Fifita -
Lui
Marshall -
Agree with Magpie but would add Fulton
-
Dont forget Dwer! He came a long way in 1 season! Lui and Ayshford also worthy mentions. Oh, and one more……
Benji
-
have to say lote, heighno and to an extent moors and daniela(even though not much footy at the end of the year) as well
-
Mitchell Brown. Where the hell did he come from?
I think with the exception of Farah, who has had phenomenal 07-08 seasons, every player on our roster improved.
-
yeh i think mitch brown was the darkie at the end of the year, he was outstanding. Pity he took a while to find his feat earlier at fullback because we could have saved our money on wade (if he keeps getting injured). I remember a full page spread on mitch before the lead up to a match where brown was debuting at fullback. unfortunately he took his time but eventually held his place in the team.
hope we find a place for him in 2011? any ideas?

Umm, fullback?
I hope he is sheens’ first pick for fullback, all he needs to improve on is his speed and support play -

of course you cannever be too fast but i think where he could improve his kick returns he needs to use his size and run harder.his positional play in defence is superb. -
i think we will find brown in the centres next yr, ashford to the pack, ive been told brown can kick goals but didnt want to put his hand up too
-
Mitch Brown I found to be surprisingly taller than Chris Lawrence though a few kgs lighter.
Cant wait to see the results of the off season, only thing is there’s two months till they start again.
I hate off season…
-
Benji, Best season he has played, stood up and became a the 2nd best playmaker in the nrl this year.
-
most improved = bryce gibbs. hes always been good but this yr he took it to another level. more minutes, try-saving tackles, higher work rate. good effort gibbsy

I agree steve-o. I never really rated Gibbsy, but I think he was our best prop this year and stepped up when the team really needed it.
-
Not a player in the squad who didn’t do something extra this year. I was critical of Farah early on, but maybe our expectations of him are unrealistic? I mean at the end of the day he almost won the Dally M!
For me Gibbs was also a surprise stand-out, and the improvement of Dwyer, Ayshford and Fiftia was pleasing but expected. It was good to see Brown recover from rock-bottom in the Cronulla game and Lui really stepped up at times.
