Agree with Huddo and/or Anthony Coleman. Another I would consider is Dan Schwass, he led Burleigh well last year.

Look for Daniel Schwass to have a big game - guy has already got decent QCUP experience so handling the physicality shouldn't be an issue. I'm looking forward to hearing how the team will be directed under him as well with Daniel being well known for how composed he remains. Big for a half too. Book him in for a certain try assist
Gonna be a good test for our 20s against a strong tweed side boasting Crampton, LG, Fogs, Ingram and Sironen.
Sounds like the U20's went well.
Schwass and Torpy both played well although Torpy got late shotted and concussed. Lawton went good too apparently. Jed Cartwright had a strong audition for that vacant centre position and it sounds like Brian Kelly will likely get the nod at fullback with him being the more experienced player at that level. Rory Humphreys apparently the stand out winger as well so I'd lock him in for one of those spots come rd1. For those who haven't seen Rory, he's very Mansour-esque. Just needs to get bulking a bit harder. Dude has got the beard and everything
Paasi and Li were both solid too by the sounds of things and wouldn't have played themselves out of getting the nod for a contract.
Elgey played well and showed his usual class. Some saying he looked a class above however I'm hearing that the U20's made extra effort to shut him down and it sounds like this was achieved pretty well. Fogarty was solid without being spectacular.
Davin Crampton was the star of the show by all reports and described as a freak by one of the blokes he was playing against
How did Greg L. Go?
Strong on attack but positional play wasn't as good as Brian Kelly's - just needs a bit of coaching. He's got that X factor though Greg..guess it depends what Woolfy wants come round 1 but I could imagine both will be given another chance to prove themselves next weekend
Well back in freezing Melbourne, but after watching the game the 20s went really well.Wilson was awesome Oshea is a powerful player and after a long layoff was really good Iodice was good played tough.Torpy and Sam Grant were the better halves pairing Imo.And I too think they went right too many times cos I cant recall Ants Coleman having a run? For what it's worth my starting 13 would be
Kelly
Rory
Huddo
Spring
Greg l
Torpy
Grant
Oshea
Deacon
Iodice
Coleman
H Schwass/Berkers/Elliot/Wright
Wilson
Cant name bench other then Lawton..Good luck to all the boys and staff for 2015! !
