    Thanks again mdrew.
    I've been meaning to ask you, will Matt Beddow be playing NYC again this year or Q cup?

    I would say Qcup. He has nothing left to prove in NYC and Qcup would be great for his development by playing against men. The problem for him last year was that he was thinking two plays ahead and no one selse in the NYC could keep up.

    Thought so. He's a pretty decent half isn't he? Likely to crack first grade?

    It is not out of the question that if Kelly and Rankin struggle, he is given a chance later in the year. This is the second off season that Matt has trained with the top squad.

    Hey guys, just some info on Francis Veukiso.

    Born in NZ, from Townsville, Aus Schoolboy in 2010. Spent two years with the Cowboys 20's and played in the 2011 grand final off the bench. While not the most polished player (though, which u/20's player is), hes a big, hard running prop who can break a tackle. Very good signing by the Titans. Good luck in 2013.

    Some of the profiles are up now mdrew. Can't believe how much older Jamal Fogarty looks

    Yes it is good to see the profiles being updated. The team this year will certainly be bigger than last year's side. Also there will certainly be a lot of pace out wide. Obviously too early to start looking at possible line-ups, but there should be very good competition for wing and back row spots. A lot will depend on where players like Russell, Hunt and Beddow start. Look for some MM boys like Anthony Coleman, Zac Spring and Wilson to push for spots once that competition ends in May.

    Will there be stern competition in the halves? Matt Beddow, Jamal Fogarty and Kane Elgey. Have heard they are all decent.
