Washy and Long would be the main passers for me. If Berro played in the centres with those two ball handling i'd be surprised if he only got 2 passes a game. Yeamo will have a field day too.

Wouldn't be a waste if him and his winger score 30+ tries next season

I'm not sure on the logic of the signings we are reported to still be going to make. Looks to me like we will sign turner and rooney. rooney as a back up 1/2 back in case (when) someone gets injured and turner presumably to be our 1st choice centre as we have an abundance of back rowers. Personally I'd rather us use the cash from those 2 to sign a better quality centre or 1/2 back.



The worry for me if we sign turner is where does that leave hall and briscoe? What's the point signing a young back rower/cenmtre who isn't really any better than those 2?



I think craig hall will end up being agar's sean briscoe who he lets go for all the wrong reasons and ends up looking stupid a couple of years down the line.



Also, where does the signing of turner leave rich whiting? Another back rower/centre

Exactly.

Spot on, should be first on the team sheet IMO.

I also would like to see berrigan and long as our halves, with Horne in the centres. Or :-

6. Whiting

7. Long

9. Berrigan with houghton as impact

13. Washbrook

Seem as plenty of others are having a stab at next seasons line up, I'll go with a mixture of what I'd like to see and what we are likely to see;





1. Dedicated full back to come in (Aussie and the last piece in the jigsaw)

2. Calderwood

3. Bristow (Tom)

4. Yeaman

5. Raynor

6. Horne

7. Long

8. O'Meley

9. Berrigan

10. Cusack

11. Burnett

12. Fitzgibbon

13. Washbrook



14. Tansey

15. Manu

16. Lauaki

17. Lee



18. Tickle

19. Hall

20. Dowes

21. Whiting

22. Turner

23. Hodgson

24. Moa

25. Rooney

26. Houghton - loan deal to Fev?

27. Promote a youngster (James Greene or Jack Bristow)



Think we'll dispense with;



Motu

Thorman

G Horne

Thacks

Maloney



and pay off



Radford

King



Has the looks of a very competitive side, and a pack that should be able to give Longy a platform to push us around the park.

Tansey

Calderwood

Briscoe

Yeaman

Raynor

Berrigan

Long

Dowes

Lee

Shrek

Manu

Fitzgibbon

Washbrook



Houghton

Hame

Yak

Burnett



Would love to see us line up like that next season.

Must say that looks a pretty useful team. Though i'd be tempted to swap Manu and Burnett.

Well i am stunned as i thought the first person to quote me would say about no Horne

Tansey

Calderwood

Briscoe

Yeaman

Raynor

Horne

Long

Cusack

Berrigan

O'Meley

Fitzgibbon

Burnett

Washbrook



Lauaki

Manu

Houghton

Moa



May be tempted to put Berro at half back and Lee to hooker. I just don't think Hornes creative enough, hopefully Long will take some pressure off him.

Tansey at FB may surprise a few people with his creativity too.

Looks good to me. Possibly swap Manu and Burnett, and Briscoe has to prove himself at centre, but it looks a strong team containing a bit of everything.
