The Jet, Leilua, Croker, Jennings (when fit) for sure. The blues are deeeeeeeeep at centre. Personally I'm not a fan of Walker.

Also mate, I think you may have credited me with one too many correct tips last round. (The $50 is in the mail).

James Roberts would've been my choice, he deserved it. If he didn't get injured, surely he's in the side.

Walker was on fire this past weekend, but you're right, NSW is spoilt with choice in the centres...

I'm just not comfortable with Hayne's selection. It bothers me he's not considered fully fit, in terms of RL conditioning. This is his second year back, & he has had a full off-season / preseason to get back into shape... Personally, as I've said before, I don't believe he's the same bloke that left the game for the NFL. It's evident that his athletic ability has diminished. Jarryd's impressive skill-set will keep him installed as a relevant first grader for years to come, but until I see signs of the old vintage, I feel his rep & his highest paid days are gone.

I'd like to know where you guys rank him now?

When he left the game he was probably a top 5 player, he currently might not even be in the top 25.

PS...... I'll look into the error, LLB, & amend it when located. (Thanks for the heads up)

Update... (On big unit Faalele)

MONSTER teenage NFL prospect Daniel Faalele was already in serious demand without playing a single game. Now he has, and the hype is only going to grow.

Interesting read regarding pathways for future Rugby League / Union converts (Including athletes from other sports).

~~~~~~~~~~~

ALEX Gray, a former England rugby sevens captain, was among four players named to NFL practice squads under a new International Player Pathway program.NFC South division teams — the Atlanta Falcons, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Carolina Panthers and New Orleans Saints — will each have a roster exemption to carry an extra practice squad member from outside the United States, although one that cannot be activated during the 2017 season.

So is Hayne going to be the saviour of the Blues tonight?

Go the mighty Maroons!

Yeeees Blues get first blood and Hayne has done nothing

Hayne's had two runs under 10 yards and has done more then he ever did in a 49ers game.

As much as I loath Hayne's attitude he sure showed why he's still a football topic with that double brush/sidestep /flick offload to almost put Morris over down the left side
