Lods will be looking forward to his boy Billy running out vs the Saints perhaps...

I’d like to see him get a game. I do rate him.
Just a few things to keep in mind. A lot of his possessions are of the “give, get straight back” nature which tends to inflate his possession numbers.

He seems to have a pretty good understanding with Boyd and if we add in Charleson, they are getting a lot of games together (stability is another key we could take to the seniors).

When he was promoted last year he took probably three games to look really comfortable and get the pace of the game. He’ll know what to expect this time. But if he’s promoted hopefully it’s not a 'straight out' if he doesn’t have a great game first up.

Im all for giving youth a go, about the only positives we can get for the season are finding some promising young players and while I wouldnt be flooding the senior team with every kid on the list Id be introducing some to the bigtime gradually and your boy Billy and Charleson should be inline for a call up.
