Probably around mid June

August 9th

Birthday release... sounds alright.

Who are everyone's picks for LS/YG? For souths I'm hoping it's Sam Burgess and Murray, but I think it'll probably be Cook and Murray/Doueihi.

 

[Wookiedragon]

Dragons
LS - Tariq Sims
YG - Matt Dufty

 

[No Doubt]

Panthers - YG - D.Edwards. LS - P. Wallace.

 

[Matt26]

Panthers - YG - D.Edwards. LS - P. Wallace.

Would be happy with this or:

YG - Edwards/May/Fisher Harris/Kikau/CHN take your pick!
LS - RCG or Wallace or Merrin or Maloney

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Burgess and Murray sound good to me.

 

[Ivanacrit]

YG - Edwards / Kikau
LS - RCG / Maloney
Merrin had one for dragons, Wallace had a sig a long time back so possible, dont know who else you would class as LS most are YG

 

[Sharky]

Sharks had so many good league sensations over the last few years which kinda can rule them out (Gal, Lewis, Graham) and with Holmes having a recent young gun and signing for extreme hard to see him signing a LS (but not out of the question) kinda leave Fifi as a standout canidate for LS even though he had a road to the finals sig and maybe Bukuya. not sure if i would include Moylan yet either. As for YG i think Ramien is the stand out.

LS Fifita/Bukuya
YG Ramien

 

[Brendan_B]

Given that Ramien is off to the Knights in 2019, would this be an issue?

How about Townsend?

For Canberra I think Tapine as YG and one of Austin, Sezer, Soliola or Whitehead as LS

They had a Ponga YG for cowboys last year so I doubt it's a big issue for them

Will Road To Finals continue this year and which teams? Surely has to be a Parra one and maybe a Manly one this time

you would hope so for some diversity, or Will they do a triple patch card for the storm or even sharks.

I meant on a personal level for the collector in regards to the Ramien.

I Like the kid and as sad as it is to see him move on from the club he does deserve the recognition, and i wouldnt complain about having his auto in the collection

Could it be someone like Kurt Capewell

Yes he’s 24 but young on NRL experience, De Belin had one in 2015 at a similar age

Ponga and Watson were both YG's last year with the Cowboys and Roosters respectively, and both playing for Knights this year. Nearly makes Ramien a cert if anything....lol

 

[Brendan_B]

The dreaded TP / YG curse!!
