JC I feel you are spot on with Watson. If he can step up and set Henderson free forward we look more dangerous.

D50m - Jamo, Watson, Simpson, Everitt, Scotland, ( Waite/Yarran/Walker).

F50m - Henderson, Levi, Garlett, Gibbs, Menzel, (Waite/Walker/McLean).

Use the last combined players to switch with each other through defence, middle and forward. Rotating them to remain fresh and rested and keep the other sides guessing. Docherty would get a start at Half back flank too at times. Just some possible options to consider.

I think you are on the money with those combinations Mantis. Henderson will be really interesting to watch this year after a break out year last year. If he does end up playing forward the spotlight will be on and he naturally will be more scrutinised then when he is/was down back. Lets hope for our sake he is up for it.

I also do like our forward mix much better now, with Menzel still fairly new and the addition of Thomas. I thought we were too extreme on the small forwards and not enough good size flankers who can push into the middle.
