Do we need Rowe, Levi, Kreuzer and Phillips as ruck options?
Maybe Curnow for Phillips, Clem for Thomas?
Finals, then 4 in a row!

We're in trouble if White is played as CHF. Third tall or lead up forward perhaps but not CHF. We really have to hope that Jaksch steps up or McKay and/or Curnow develop quickly.

Forget set positions to a degree and whether or not someone is CHF, HFF or the like.
The combination ia what I am more interested in.
Casboult (the monster 2m / 100 keg power forward with 'roaming' talls in Everitt, Walker and White is exactly the idea I floated throughout 2015.
Not saying it's a winner but I think we could get more support, options and system with this setup - plus some crumbers or resting mids (Kerridge, Wright, Gibbs, Murphy, Cripps, Graham, etc).
I don't mind it.
Rowe could be another option forward also IMO.
Reckon BB will 'throw' the side around a fair bit anyway.
What we know is - Jones ain't up to it as a forward.
Jaksch is seemingly a mile away from it unfortunately.
McKay is young and injured.
Charlie Curnow will not be the saviour CHF round 1. Hooping he comes on sooner than later though!

No one is suggesting it's even a medium term fix DJC.

Mostly in consensus Pratty.
White gets a bad wrap but he makes a significant contest inside F50 and can mark.
Pretty sure we will see significant forward resting time from Cripps, Gibbs, Kreuzer, Philips and others, it will be interesting to see what happens late in games as legs get tired and rotations are no longer there to rest players. Talls will always be talls!
One person we haven't seen getting a run through HF is Weitering, this kid can kick goals from 60m. He and Tuohy sneeking forward are significant weapons around the 50m arc. If Weiters starts intercepting some kick-ins he could easily put the ball back over the FBs head!

i don't get the idea of a resting forward. :o
ALL of our forwards spend 90% of the game running to and from our backline, generally behind the ball as well.
We have no stay at home forwards anymore.

The thread is about R1 DJC - none of your suggestions for CHF would seem to be ready?
Anyway, the line up as shown is about our "forward 6" - they surely will be rotated through different roles throughout the game rather than play in one fixed position.
Reality always wins in the end.

I'd like to see Murphy spend most of his time as a forward. Besides being very good there, we need to start moving into the next generation midfield. Murphy for spurts and when they new guys start to lose their way (which will likely be often to begin with)
