Think my rubbish tablet has knacked your quote, apologies.
Pretty cock on Squire, rather narcaccistic though.
Always had you down as one of those Hipster chaps, cool flat cap, messenger bag, beard, riding a fixy, Larkin to hand.
Disappointing.

| White?
Sheite is turned to "White" in the filter.
Jesus turned Sheite into White.
Very nineteen seventies.

| I think Kelly and Blair will work in the halves because Kelly is the type of playmaker who loves to do it all himself, and Blair will basically play like a spare lock forward who will do plenty of quality defence, plenty of hard runs and link with the backs well, but won't take much of the kicking or organising away from Kelly.
The problem will be if Kelly gets injured, because Blair doesn't have it in him to take control.
Blair is actually a pretty similar player to Travis Burns - minus the touch of psycho that Burns brings to the table.
I think people have the wrong idea about Kelly. They think he is a mercurial player who does things off the cuff and is unpredictable. I watched him pretty closely for the half a season he played in reserves for Newcastle, and he has a great kicking game and he always has a plan when he kicks. His kicking game is the equal of Dobson's. He adds to that with the ability to run through a gap and do quality broken field running - which is probably why people think he is an off-the-cuff type player, but running the ball is just an extra he brings to the game - his real skill is kicking and organising.

Simples. They were all poor defensively and had too many brainfarts

Must admit that was the impression I had about Kelly, from the little bits I read and the YouTube clips. If he's a more rounded half, all the better.

| All we are waiting on now to fill the 2015 roster are Shaun Lunt, Gil Dudson, Greg Burke, John Boudebza, A N Other (half back), and u19 upgrades (hopefully, Tom Sullivan, Alex Gibley and Jack Stewart amongst others).
Looking at the squad for 2015, including the players above) the starting line-up is shaping up nicely:
Ben Cockayne;
Kieran Dixon, Kenny Sio, Darrell Goulding, Josh Mantellato;
Bobby Blair, Albert Kelly;
Mick Weyman, Shaun Lunt, Adam Walker;
Tyrone McCarthy, Kev Larroyer;
Nev Costigan
Bench: Boudebza, Cox, Green, Dudson
Notable omissions also, Salter and Welham.
Overall it looks a well balanced squad, full of potential and perhaps more importantly speed and high tempo. Fingers crossed it comes to fruition.

Sio is mainly a winger or fullback, I think. It'll be interesting to see how we start the season at 1,2 and 5 - there's a few options.

| A lot of people seem to be putting Sio in the centres and as above I'm not sure he Is a centre I think we will see either him or Dixon at full back with Charlie covering. If the Myler rumour is to be believed then I think we will see Blair at centre.

| Read the articles. Blair andKelly are "coming because they have the chance to play in the halves together" (Neil Henry) Blair won't play centre, at least at the start of the season anyway
