I know that hinchy is a good lock but i would much rather see lowrie there and have an impact player off the bench like ryan and also be able to cover smith. mine would be
11. blair  100%
12. proctor
13. lowrie

14. hinchy
15. plum
16. manu (can play 2nd row or front row)

mate manu  is gunna be starting in second row  manu,blair,norrie there all going to be starting next most probaly, there their most experienced forwads for next year.mine would be:


11.kevin proctor
12.sika manu
13.adam blair

big leagues likely 2011 line up had proctor in second row and blair at lock as well then the bench would look something like this:

14.hinchy
15.todd lowrie
16.plum
17.bromwhich/kite/waqa

and if we dont sign plum just another forwad in 16. :D

Plum isn't a better player than Proctor or Lowrie. If he signs will be a back up who plays in NSW cup.

Craig Bellamy said it at Awards last night.  I think he jumped the gun on announcement because Penrith have not announced it.  He said it only happened on Thursday.

Said last night whilst receiving an award the Maurice Blair had signed with us,(think he said Frank Ponissi had confirmed that morning ?),though nothing 'official' in print so maybe he hasn't told his team mates yet ?
