He’s got explosive speed and light stepping. I think the Sharks are in a battle to make the eight this year. The Storm & Knights highlight NRL Round 12 action with a Top 8 clash at Sunshine Coast Stadium.
Nathan Peats also missed large chunks of the season and then there was Ash Taylor’s sabbatical.The new factor, aside from a fully fit squad, is the acquisition of new coach Justin Holbrook, and having seen what he did at St Helens there’s no doubting he is very gifted.So much so I’m backing the Titans to push on.Stephen Kearney was clearly struggling at the back end of the season as the Warriors form nosedived, despite being in touching distance of making the eight.His team blew hot and cold all year, and that has just summed up the Warriors over the last few years.They have only made the finals once since the start of the 2012 season, and if Kearney can’t get a tune out of this roster they may decide to bring in a new face.Step forward Nathan Brown. While I … Although we’re tipping he will actually be given the No.7 at some point.Harry Grant is too good a player to keep in the reserves for much longer and Craig Bellamy will want to get the young gun straight into the side to begin the Smith succession plan.That may leave Jahrome Hughes playing a bench role... or no role at all.If it does get passed, the NRL will realise pretty quickly this new rule needs to go out the back door quick smart.That’s IF it gets through... which hopefully it doesn’t.Coaches and players will figure out ways to exploit it immediately.They’ll waste time and make the game even slower. But all of them are going to want to play on a weekly basis.And if they get that, something has to give.They were absolutely turgid at times last year.And they’ve lost a load of experience.Reagan Campbell-Gillard and James Maloney have left, along with Wayde Egan.Their replacements Api Koroisau, Zane Tetevano and Kurt Capewell are good – but hardly the same calibre.If they are hit by injuries to the newly-arrived trio or Nathan Cleary, the Panthers will struggle.With a full season at their new stadium under their belt, Parramatta are getting stronger and with a settled and stable playing and coaching team, they can kick on to the next level.The likes of Blake Ferguson, Maika Sivo and Clint Gutherson form one of the most intimidating back threes, while their pack has improved with bringing in Ryan Matterson and Reagan Campbell-Gillard.Dylan Brown and Mitchell Moses’ combination is improving constantly, and the Eels will feel confident of challenging for an extra bite at the finals.The barnstorming Brisbane behemoth had a breakout year in 2019 and he will get even more dominant next season.Haas polled 27 Dally M votes this year, only seven behind the runaway winner James Tedesco.The Broncos will improve in 2020 and more wins mean more Dally M votes for the team, and Haas will be front and centre.Tedesco is the obvious tip but he has teammates like Luke Keary and Latrell Mitchell competing for votes.The Melbourne veteran will play his final season in the NRL and most of it will be spent at first receiver rather than hooker.That’s regardless of what number he wears on his back. Each year that ticks over is further away from that 2006 premiership, it’s been a long time for them and it was a disappointing year for them last year with the lack of stability in that halves pairing. Without Jimmy (Maloney) this year, I think they’ll be forced to grow up as a team. Losing Maloney, now the team is finally his so the spotlight will be on him.”“It’s the year of the blue and gold, Parramatta are very confident this year which puts it on Mitchell Moses.“He’s now getting to his mid-20s so he’s at that age where halves begin to assert themselves. The second half of the NRL season begins with four dead-set certainties and four games where the favourite is less than clear. There are a few sides I just don’t think will make the eight, but who picks up the spoon, it’s difficult.”“I think the quality of the bottom teams will improve this year. They made the finals 2018 and then were disappointing last year.“I think Paul Green is under pressure, the Cowboys haven’t played finals football the last two years.“Coaching is a pressure job, commentary is easy, coaches they can have it.”“I think they’re all under pressure but I have to say if Parramatta don’t get off to the start they want, I think Brad Arthur will be under pressure.
