The photo SMH printed of Tom Sexton looks like a cross between a mugshot and a deer in the headlights.

Set to spend some time at Full BackStay well clear of JOC (James O'Connor), he is ready to explode: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/r...ready-to-explode/story-fn8ouw0e-1226561172142
Hope Folau takes the ball, out in front, Aussie Rules style, that'll end well.

Sidey.Sounds like KB (Kurtley Beale) 10, JOC (James O'Connor) 15 and Woodward 14 might be on the go. Which begs the question, who will be at 12? Will it be Mitchell again?
Sidey.
Would also make for the slowest and most predictable midfield anyone has seen since Noon-Tindall.That would certainly make for a very sizeable back line.
Looking forward to kicking off Round 1 against the Rebels. It's been far too long since we last met. Some interesting additions to each team. I can't wait....its just been too long a wait.Stay well clear of JOC (James O'Connor), he is ready to explode: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/r...ready-to-explode/story-fn8ouw0e-1226561172142
Possible ground zeros:
- VISY Park
- Chapel St
- Pools/Spas in Port Melbourne
Pleasure to chat to, hope he gets his chance and proves it was worth the wait!Good to see hard work and persistance has paid off for Eddie Aholelei, hope he steps up
I see that Angus Roberts from the Sydney University club will be given time at flyhalf and fullback in the first trial on Saturday, against the Waratahs.
Not too much should be read into this - nor in whom the Waratahs use there (probably Ben Volvola and Sam Lane) - but he's a good player in both positions at the club level.
But it will be interesting if the Waratahs use Bernard Foley at flyhalf when Roberts is playing there. Not only do they play the same positions and are similar types of players, but also they are from the same club.

Roberts, Beale, and O'Connor are all "playmakers". I wouldn't ideally want all in an XV, too many chefs.
Not that this will end up happening (at least I hope not) but it wouldn't work, remember the Brumbies "Tri-half" system?
