I actually didn't mind Zillman at centre, thought he was much better there than Hoffman and probably now Nene. Nene has the potential but it may be best now to drop him to reserve grade to get him hungry for first grade and gain some confidence.
I would have my team for this week:
1. Mead
2. Don
3. Zillman
4. Olive
5. Hoffman/ GL
6. Cullen
7. Taylor (if fit to play)
Mind you I still have plenty of doubts about Zillman and Hoffman going forward, our young guys are already breathing down their necks...Wait till next season!

I wouldn't be so quick to cut blokes ... two weeks ago they were magic in everybody's opinion. Cullen should come in if Roberts is still out, Shillington for Pettybourne (who was ineffective) and drop Mortimer. Bloody Zillman, scores a try and let's in how many in QCup ... WTF?
Four reasons to escape to Queensland: Sun, Surf, Sand & the Titans.
Agreed. I wouldnt drop Olive I still think he offers plenty I would just move him to his preferred position of wing. You cant move mead from fullback after last week his kamikaze defense was amazing to watch last week and saved a few certain tries. Cullen has to come in keep bird where he is most effective. Is Mosely fully fit yet would have him there instead of Morts. Would also bring James into the starting pack.
If Zillman get picked he will go FB and would mean Olive will get dropped
This is how i see the team picked cuz i am pretty sure Taylor is good to play
I hope Zillman stays Qcup and Olive goes to wing and Macdonald goes left centre

So still no Shillo and Roberts. No Zillman is a surprise, he mustn't be training the house down. Sadly surprised that we sign Cullen as cover for the halfs, he gets MOM has a blinder of a last game, can't do much more than that however we are going to persevere with can't kick Birdy rather than give him his chance. I think that would be disheartening. Fingers crossed with some game day surprises.
As for the Nene/Olive discussion, I think Davis was ahead of Olive and should probably be able to come back into the team when his shoulder is better.
Thanks for the early news Timor 2.
