[quote="Barrie’s Glass Eye":2dwmmlyq]Agree wholeheartedly on Gannon Arthur, but even if that if happens the back row still looks light both physically and in terms of depth for me.[/quote:2dwmmlyq] Totally agree. I think the powerhouse type second row that would complete the transformation from also rans to pack to be feared is probably to be found in the NRL. That would require one of the two quota spots we might have free at the end of the year.

Does anyone know if Ash's testimonial will be streamed like the Boxing day game?

Should be a good test for 40 minutes at least on Sunday. Both coaches playing pretty much full strength with Arthur confirming Gannon will start and play 20 minutes maybe coming back on later in the second half. Also saying "the kids will play the second half".

Would definitely have paid more though. Will look into the other fund raising things. He's been a great player for the team. First half should be interesting.
