Quote: NickyKiss "I’m a big Greenwood fan and he’ll come again but he’s got a battle on for a spot both this year and even more so next year. The emergence of Smithies, Partington and Byrne has muddied the waters for people like Greenwood, Bullock and Navarrete and that’s great. They’ll all need big pre seasons and to take their opportunities when they come if they want to play.
In regards Greenwood in particular, he needs to show more energy and aggression in defence for me. He is guilty of just waving his arms about at times and not bending his back. He’s a fine attacking talent though.'"
I suspect 2 out of Greenwood, Byrne, Navarette and French won't make the 17. On current form I'd suggest that Greenwood and Navarette will be the two.
Personally I'd leave out Burgess and Navarette. I was a massive fan of Burgess but since his Aussie adventure he adds little and his once electric pace is now replaced by lacklustre performances and continually slipping over thin air, reckless defence and at times an air of wishing that he was somewhere else. I'd sacrifice any of the three quarter line for the Budgie of old.
I hard place for Lam but infinitely better than earlier in the season when we lots of injuries.
