They will probably go with Mcullock I would think. DCE seems to be out of favourism and is not a specialist no 9
GI should be captain

Yeah mate. I guess the Eagles were in a position to throw one blindfolded dart at the board, coming off a championship, and make Jordan the first ever player drafted having not played a single snap at any level. Pretty amazing and obviously he's a specimen with plenty of potential.

It would be good to see another Aussie (not a punter) on the Niners in future and I guess if we do well, Shanalynch might take a similar punt.

In the meantime, hopefully Jordan can crack the code and establish a future in the game.

Why, Queensland of course! Very interesting series with two very new look teams. Slater ruled out late makes it even more interesting. I hope Kevvie goes with Ponga. Get the young man blooded I say. He's an amazing talent and won't be overwhelmed for mine.
