I don't see us giving up any size Grimmy. Clubb and Bullock are very similar, Smithies is bigger than Partington and fair enough Singleton is a little bit heavier than Lockers. Overall we dont lose any size in my view.

Is Smithies bigger than Partington? I won't look up the playing stats because they are always wrong but he looks smaller to me.



Fair enough though I get what Jukesays and others are saying about the importance of setting the platform early doors, and I definitely don't mean it as a slight on Partington, who I think is doing really well.

He's about 5 kilos heavier and two inches taller.

Fair point. If it came to it Lockers would absolutely be my pick over Burgess. FWIW the only reason for the inclusion of GB was his and Clubbs work rate and game return aren’t too far apart and therefore, IMO, wouldn’t make much difference as to who was there. However looking at it in the way you’ve put it, I’d agree you’d select only one of Lockers/GB

French
Bibby
Hardaker
Gildart
Burgess
Hastings
Tommy
Bullock
Powell
Singleton
Isa
Farrell
Partington

Greenwood
O’Loughlin
Smithies
Clubb

Fair does if you know that, it doesn't look it on the picture. Hope you're not just going off the stats they publicise though because they're always wrong (e.g I'm 6'2, yet taller than players I've seen listed as 6'4 when I've stood next to them).

TBF I didn't really get what you meant because I've always thought Partington looks tiny, would definitely have thought he was smallest, and the stats on the website(dubious, i agree) have him as smaller. He's definitely throwing his weight around more atm though.

Fair enough maybe I'm wrong

(fixed my link above with them stood next to each other by the way)

There are only eighteen players barring a last minute injury in contention for a place in the Grand Final team.

The only problem for Lam is to explain to the omitted player why he has been left out!

That's the team just been announced

Picked the right team there IMO. Come on!!!!!!
