Not many surprises at all. Hope all the young guys pushing for a FG spot kill it so we have some fresh faces in the top 17.
I wonder why Munster was named in the starting side over Mann ? Might be nothing but I find it interesting.

I can`t get to the trial game Sally so can you let me know how George Rose and Ben Roberts goes. I think they will both be an asset if they follow Storm ways.

I hope Fonua kills it. Defence, as we all are well aware, will be the big question mark but he is too short for wing and has the barnstorming running game to be a real danger at centre. I love O'Neill but he is an out-and-out winger.
Bellamy's comments lead me to believe that he thinks Duffie will be on the wing this year though... Waqa will of course be on the other. Leaves an interesting situation with O"Neill, Fonua, Duffie and Hunt for left centre/wing combination.

It will be interesting to see who kicks goals for the Storm today, as Matt Duffie is the only player in the squad to have kicked a goal in first grade for the Storm and he has only kicked one goal. Having said that Cody Walker will kick goals based on his form for Easts Tigers. Or Ben Roberts has kicked goals for Samoa and one goal for the Eels.
Neither Walker or Roberts are guaranteed a game during the season so it will be interesting to see who kicks goals if we rest Smith on the bench at any stage during the season.

i think chambers (not playing today i know) may get a go at goal kicking at some point, i've seen him do it at practice once and he went ok

As long as Cronk doesn't have to do any goal kicking during the season we'll be fine

He has kicked some very big field goals to win some big games.
