No, you're right. There's nothing electric there. There's no Jai Field or Bevan French style pure pace but for me there are a lot of other qualities in abundance in the backs we will put out. There will be a lot of proper hard nosed rugby intelligence and know how on display. Players who know how to win in tight fought contests of which, hopefully, there will be quite a few next season. We should also be very solid at centre, defensively in particular.
I'm ok with the ones we've got. It would be fantastic to have the likes of Field and French but players of that quality do not, as they say, grow on trees. Maybe for another season.
Luke Thompson is contracted to the Bulldogs until the end of the 2023 season, however can negotiate with clubs for 2024 only, unless agreed by his club to release him beforehand. Luke did say he had unfinished business at the Bulldogs, so I can’t see him going anywhere this coming season.
