I think Williamson played every game he was available fitness wise last year. He played back pocket/flank.
I think he may have been one of the youngest players in the competition.
He will be there if available.

I agree and he should be there, be interesting to see who misses out though

Simpson could play higher, what we used to call "the wing" when football used to have positions

As we all know our defence is overloaded yet our forward line is bare.

Really hope Weitering can learn to be a forward and maybe even something left field like Willo playing up th field.

Not saying they should, simply saying worth experimenting maybe in pre season games.

Looking forward to watching SPS and crippa after a full and hopefully injury free pre season.

Maybe Jones can go forward with Rowe and ACoS back?

Perhaps with his new found confidence he can dominate as a forward. That said, his form down back probably shouldn't be meddled with!

If our midfield starts to click, the forwards will start to look a lot better - literally overnight.

Great believer in that FB. Jones is a more likely long term defender prospect for us than Rowe or ACoS, although these two will be useful over the next year or two. I'd like to see Jones continue to develop in his current role and moving him forward may well upset that. If we want someone to fill in as a forward I would rather go with Rowe although that prospect doesn't really excite me.

i consider, all other things being equal ie injuries, Harry gets played Rd 1 on and is told he has the role for half the year minimum, no questions asked....

Heck, the kid will probably be 210cm by the start of next season!

His height is irrelevant now.
He is tall enough if his attitude and determination are there.

Robbie Warnock was about 210cm wasn't he?

There is a difference between 'cutting it' at the highest level and thriving at the highest level.

Casboult 'cuts it' but he isn't going to dominate games on a consistent basis....or at all.

We don't wont McKay to 'cut it', we want him to dominate. WAY too soon for that to occur.
