Wonder if Dre will lineup against the Lions for the Reds (Jul 2).
Though it will be good to have him at inside centre for a pretty tricky pool.

I’ve heard the name Goddard thrown around a bit as a super promising NSW prop battling to return from injury in time for this series. Shame he hasn’t quite made it. Big loss for us for this comp?

By all reports he's a very good scrummaging THP. Did his ACL this year. Won't be back until next pre-season.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Strongest Scrummager in this age group coming through over the years. Langi has a lot of potential with sheer size but played a lot of lock at School level so hasn’t had as much time.

Is Prass the biggest name that went to SA to not be picked? The two 10s selected were the best over the last couple of years of rep footy.

Best and strongest scrummager THP he is.
