Always a tough task this, and no doubt my side will look a lot different come finals time. But here goes:

1 S.Turner
2 Webster
3 Slater
4 King
5 Cooper
6 Geyer
7 Orford
8 Kearns
9 Smith
10 Chan
11 Robinson
12 Kearney
13 Hill

14 Kidwell
15 Reynoldson
16 Williams
17 Johnson

I like Earl's idea having 16 and 17 to reward Norths form. G.Turner, Hoffman, Friend, Bell, MacDougall, Tanielu, Kaufusi and McFadden are in this group.

Also, has anyone seen Luke Dyer play? How is he going? Has a fair bit of toe apparently.

I saw Dyer in the Norths game against Toowoomba, looked ok. Bombed one try, but had a bit of pace.

My side would be:
1. Slater
2. Turner/Webster
3. Bell/McDougall
4. King
5. Cooper
6. Geyer
7. Orford
8. Kearns
9. Smith
10. Reynoldson
11. Kidwell
12. Kearney
13. Hill

14. Williams
15. Chan
16. Robinson
17. Hoffman/G. Turner/Johnson

Bloody tough thing to do when you think about it... glad it's Bellamy and not me!!
Storming our way to glory!

I think Hill is playing well at 5/8 but the problem is the 'depth' in our Threequarters ATM.

I think he is going to have to move to lock to accomodate Geyer at 5/8. The worst part about that is that Kidwell has been our best foward behind Kearnsy this year.

Although I like the use of Kidwell as an impact player.

my best guess would be:

1. Slater
2. King
3. Webster
4. Bell
5. MacDougall
6. Geyer
7. Orford
8. Kearns
9. Smith
10. Chan
11. Kearney
12. Robinson
13. Hill

14. Kidwell
15. Reynoldson
16. Williams
17. Johnson

a 4 man forward bench, but still enough depth to cover an injury in the back line. when you think that this has left out, cronk, cooper, both turners, howe, kaufusi, hoffman, the list goes on, i think we have found the positive side to all of last years injuries :)
