    Dallas Macleod named MOTM surely on current form he must be in with a chance.

    I would take Proctor before picking McLeod. Proctor is starting to play some useful footy.

    Nankivell, Poihipi, TUJ, and probably about 2-3 more ahead of McLeod at least eh.

      Not really bolters, but there is starting to be a silly amount of loosies in contention that are ramping right up at the pointy end of the competition.

            Bryce Heem. He's a perfect utility back.

              Yes and for a big 34 year old he seems to have a decent turn of pace.

                  @Magpie_in_aus Probably too early to tell. What happened to Luke Romano he could easily make a comeback, he was great last year for the Blues.

                        Can’t see how he fits without injury to Cane or Paps.
                        I get that he is performing at a high quality level but there’s only so many spots in the squad.

                          @Bones He covers 12,13,wing and we've played him at fullback. Is extremely consistent, hardly every has a bad game and makes everyone around look better.

                          Would be a great player to have in a size restricted squad.

                            Put that way he would be a replacement for Havili.

                            An injury chance.

                                Covers 12 better than other midfiled/wing options. Should be ahead of Ennor in the rankings

                                  I'd agrre wth that but would also not want Ennor anywhere near the squad 🙂

                                    @Duluth I admit, that's who I had in mind more than DH who is also emergency 10 cover. For a centre/wing Heem is significantly better than Ennor, and covers two additional spots.

                                      ok, real bolter time....sam gilbert, one of the leading point scorers, excellent goal kicker (hasn't missed since round 6 i think) good at 15 and comfortable in the centres and can cover 10 (especilly outside smith or fakatava) if needed....

                                      ducks for cover

                                          Yeah. Heem over Ennor for me too if that was the choice.
