2013 NRL Teams

Oh yeah forgot about him.

1. Nathan Gardner
2. Nathan Stapleton
3. Ben Pomeroy/Jonathan Wright
4. Michael Gordon
5. Beau Ryan

I don't know if that's better or worse lol their backline is in all sorts

That's actually a fairly decent back line when in form, if you ask me. Well better then the other one named anyway.
 
I'd have Jono Wright on the wing in place of Stapleton & Stapleton in to Gardners Spot

- - - Updated - - -

I'd have this:
1.Michael Gordon
2.Beau Ryan
3.Ben Pomeroy
4.Jonathon Wright
5.Nathan Stapleton
 
1. Michael Gordon
2. Beau Ryan
3. Ben Pomeroy
4. Jonathan Wright
5. Nathan Gardner

1. Nathan Stapleton
2. John Williams/Sosaia Feki
3. Stewart Mills
4. Ricky Leutele
5. Matthew Wright

Gordon has to be the fullback surely, waste on the wing. Jono Wright is a very average player, but could easily become a decent big powerful lanky centre like Pomeroy or Linnett at the Cowboys. Gardner is a good player & started on the wing so there's no problems. The rest are the NSW Cup backline, all of them are contracted next year except for John Williams & Sosaia Feki, hence the dash inbetween whichever one gets re-signed. Stapleton is a better fullback & Mills is a much better centre. If Faifai Loa signs then he would easily slot in for Gardner who would drop back to NSW Cup fullback with Stapleton on the wing & both Williams & Feki going.

Why on earth are we discussing this in a Knights rumours thread Lol.

Like NF said in another thread, NYC & Maitland Pickers player Geordie Connelly has signed a 1-year contract with the Panthers.

Also has a few words from Anderson on his move there.

gordon played juniors in the centres and that's where id have him gadener could be anything with better players around him imo but thats just my opinion.

I agree on Gardner, he definitely won't be in NSW Cup, and definitely definitely not for Faifai Loa.

Even if Gordon is fullback, Gardner's needed for the 20 weeks per season Gordon is injured, anyway.
 
Post your teams here. For Cronulla, I think they've recruited the best since the Bulldogs back in 2009. They always had spare money from last years cap aswell so there is space there.

1. Michael Gordon
2. Beau Ryan
3. Ben Pomeroy
4. Ricky Leutele
5. Jono Wright
6. Todd Carney
7. Jeff Robson
8. Paul Gallen
9. Isaac De Gois
10. Bryce Gibbs
11. Luke Lewis
12. Wade Graham
13. Chris Heighington

14. John Morris
15. Andrew Fifita
16. Ben Ross
17. Jason Bukuya

Another big mover in recruitment is Penrith.

1. Josh Mansour
2. Brad Tighe
3. Wes Naiqama
4. Michael Jennings
5. Dean Whare
6. Lachlan Coote
7. Luke Walsh
8. Tim Grant
9. Kevin Kingston
10. Sam McKendry
11. Sika Manu
12. Lewis Brown
13. Clint Newton

14. James Segeyaro
15. Shane Shackleton
16. Cameron Ciraldo
17. Matt Robinson
 
Cronulla have a great team lined up for next year, they'd be my favourites for the minor-premiership. I think the lineup shouldlook something like this:

1. Nathan Gardner
2. Nathan Stapelton
3. Beau Ryan
4. Ben Pomeroy
5. Michael Gordon
6. Todd Carney
7. Jeff Robson
8. Ben Ross
9. John Morris
10. Bryce Gibbs
11. Paul Gallen
12. Anthony Tupou
13. Luke Lewis
14. Wade Graham
15. Andrew Fifita
16. Jason Bukuya
17. Chris Heighington

What do you guys think?

Their crap backline will assure they won't do much better than this year. The rest of their team looks fantastic though.

My predicted ladder for next year

I don't think Beau Ryan's that great, terrible fullback and sub-par winger. If he wasn't on the Footy Show no one would care who he is.

This thread isn't just a Newcastle thread, it's called 2013 NRL Teams, not 2013 Knights Team.
 
Beau has improved in leaps and bounds this year on the field but on the footy show its a completely different story he hasnt been funny since his first couple last year, you can tell he is just a watered down version of matty

My predicted ladder for next year

If the Broncos only get 3 wins all next season I will buy everybody who has previously posted before me in this thread a 2013 Knights Jersey...
