Yeh its a shame one game is in NZ, the other in Melbourne with the NRL being played AFTER the NSW Cup. So we wont have our strongest NSW Cup side with a few guys on NRL standby.
If the first grade gets knocked out, then we could field a hell of an NSW cup side next week. Unfortunately it's going to be a tough ask to knock off Auckland at home ...
Its hard to say untill they are given a shot at FG...I remember when Mullen got injured when Origin was coming up I suggesed to pick Stigg at 5/8 to pair with Henry and leave Gids @ fullback and it was seen as a stupid idea.
Well Adams & Kali are ready for first-grade no doubt in my opinion. Marlborough would be close to the standard & Briggs isn't really anywhere near FG, for us anyway. He played well this year so i mentioned him.
