I heard 5 manly and 5 uni guys knocked back invites to play in this game.....

 

[lily]

It makes sense with amount of players they have away at S15 clubs and 20s WC.

 

[Eyes and Ears]

Trying to make up a team of Uni players yet to return:

1. Paddy Ryan
2. Nathan Charles
3. Laurie Weeks
4. Dan Vickerman
5. Dean Mumm
6. Pat McCutcheon
7. Phil Waugh
8. Tim Davidson
9. Luke Burgess
10. Berrick Barnes
11. Alfi Mafi
12. Tom Carter
13. Mitch Inman
14. Peter Betham
15. Daniel Halangahu

Add to that Nick Phipps, plus a few others I have surely forgotten.

Not a bad side.

I heard Mafi might be going to Wests but you can still throw in L.Mitchell, Huxley & Kingston. I think I might find a spot for McCalman & Dennis.

Alot of those will be tied up with extended Wallaby squads and then the final squad. How about one of you Uni supporters filling out a team sheet with Wallaby probables missing. By all means chuck in some possibles for final squad but there is no way for instance that some of those guys will be playing any club rugby this year.

 

[qwerty51]

How about Souths after Super XV:

1. Faulkner
2. Ulugia/Seymour
3. Palmer/Henderson
4. Timani
5. Douglas
6. Saffy/Samo
7. Latinupulu/Doyle
8. Vaea/L Timani
9. Roos/Hart/Cusiter
10. Volavola
11. Kemp/Price
12. BKH/Latinupulu
13. Horne
14. Vuna
15. Saifolio

 

[brynylon]

And to think there is a 120 point cap.

 

[CarlUnger]

Anyone to come back for Gordon?

15. Saifolio

Cusitor is back with the Scots. I think the Wallabies extended squad will also mean no Timani, Douglas, Samo, and Horne. If you have a look at the SMH team player ratings all those with the exception of Horne are in the projected Wallaby squad. And surely Horne will make a very large squad.

 

[lily]

Manly will have Fairbrother, Peterson, Jones, Hooper, Woodhouse, Du Plessis, Metuisela, Swanepoel, Coleman, T. Smith, A.Smith, Hartmann, Sigg from injury, S15 and 20s WC in the next month.

Also add Nick Cummins to that side somewhere

How had Cusiter gone with SD please?

What point system....

Will they really have a lot tied up with Wallaby squads? Once the Tri-N gets undeway, they will focus on a match day 22 and I am assuming that they will take about 30 to the RWC. Those that will most likely be in that 22/30 are Barnes, Burgess and McCalman and possibly Mumm. Perhaps Phipps as a 3rd HB but surely he would be released to play club and who knows what they will do with Vickerman. It looks like a pretty tough side to beat again this year for mine.

 

[lily]

I assumed thy would start with a squad of about 40 and wittle it down from there.
