you'd think Houston would be putting in a big off-season and hoping for a big year he'll have to train and play out of his skin to get a new contract and even to make the bench this year, the only way he is assured a starting spot or deffinate bench spot is with injuries the starting pack will almost certainly be Snowden, Packer, Smith, Rochow bench- Mason, (Cuthbo/Fa'alogo/ Houston?) (Gidley/Dobson/Clysdale), (Sims, Mckinnon).. we will have a lot better depth heading into 2014 , imo hoston has at least 2 players infront of him to even earn a bench spot and as much as I hate saying it Mason will Be more than likely of the bench if Packer comes in good form, but mase will see a lot of game time.
