1 will start on the bench. It's the point of having 3top line 2nd rows. To maintain the level throughout the games! Manu more a starting player for me. Would love to see frank andTaylor off the bench about 20mins in.

I know and agree. Just think radford will find a place for all 3 in the starting line up

which ever he starts or brings on wont matter there will cause mayhem

Sure he said plan was to keep the intensity when 1off or out. Only way to do that is to play 1 instead of Westy. Or at prop and totally waste their ball skills. Be periods when manu will play 13 I'd guess at just to spell West as well. I'd really love to see frank off the bench tho. Think with his size and hands he'd be devasting v tiring defences

Whatever happens , it's going to be intresting and very exciting . Our defence is going to be awesome, just hope we can sort our attack out, do that and we've a very good chance of a good season

I hope so. I haven't looked forward to the next season this much since we signed fitzgibbon and o'meley

I'm also not seeing how we are officially under the cap with the players we have next year, certainly more high wage earners than this year

Could you supply us with a breakdown of the club salary structure then please with details of what everybody is earning?

Much obliged

Its not as crazy an observation as your making out, got some big earners coming in next season. If we are already at full cap already, must be tight fitting them under cap. For me its got to be down to the marquee rule, if it means we can sign a 28 year old top nrl player, its definitely worked for us.
