Are the McCormack's injured. Wouldn't have minded seeing Ned at full back.

Decent first half, poor second

Dont think any of the kids will be happy with their performance, but the bigger concern is the total lack of physical development, looks like they havnt been in a gym since leaving the scholorship 12 month ago

Pre-season : Fri Dec 27, 2024 12:35 pm  
Decent first half. Lots of the first team looking really fit. Mik looked a real specimen and was leading our kick chase. It was really nice to see our halves bossing the game rather than Cam. 
New signings all had a decent run out. My major concern for the season is the second row. Don’t see many line breaks there but will tackle well. I wonder if Cooper Jenkins could play slightly wider, certainly had the pace and the frame for it. 
The kids looked just like kids to be honest. Not much to comment on but nice to get the W. Sinfield looks to have put on some size but I don’t see him making it at Leeds. He will be fourth choice this season and for me is just another Jordan Lilley. Hope he proves me wrong.

Didn't make the Boxing Day game. Any thoughts on which players look to have made the most progress over the close season?

Difficult to say really as it was just a friendly but the whole team looked fitter to me.

Oledski looked like the player he can be and Holroyd looked massive!

Croft and Frawley looked like a settled half back partnership.

Wakefield but near to Leeds!

Re: Pre-season : Sat Dec 28, 2024 1:15 pm  
I thought the only standouts were Connor, Oledezki and Palasia with maybe Croft at a push.
The rest were pretty average and as expected at this time of year.
Thought Jack Sinfield played ok when he came on.
Looks like bad news for O`Connor and I`m not sure who we have as back up hooker, Bentley maybe?

Think it would be Frawley (he filled in there for Canberra on occasion) to hooker with Connor moving to the halves. We do have better depth in the spine this year.

That sounds like a good option and I reckon that would work.
Btw interesting choice of name AC as the "real" Arthur Clues taught my brother at school.
