The time is pretty right for a younger era to start. We just badly need to identify guys for those spots.
I’m starting to agree on this. I know a fair few people on here have been unhappy with Jesse Bromwich for a while.

Christian Welch (if he can stay fit) will be the cornerstone of the pack for the next few years.

I also see big things for Alec MacDonald.

Trent Loiero impresses me a lot. Seems like he'll be a real weapon one day.

Yep, not a question of if he makes, but where. Middle or edge?

Is Tui a starting worthy Prop? I always thought Nelson (and still do) is better coming off the bench but has played mostly really well starting this year. Christian, YES

I like him on the edge. I reckon he could cause some headaches near the try line with his crash plays combined with being able to throw a ball outside

6 months ago I would have agreed with you. But he's been pretty impressive this year almost exclusively in the middle. Big future!

This has been a rough night for Bellamy.
Check out the replay later. The very next play off the penalty, Sorensen with a much more aggressive jersey grab to pull a marker out of play.

Nothing said.
The same thing just happened at the end of this tigers/dogs game and was ignored lol.
