2025 Squad - Speculation Thread

Does dane play the fetcher role? (have to admit, I haven't been motivated to actually watch any of the mountain of footage to answer that question myself)

We do need another traditional openside to support/compete with Carlo. In that role, Ollie is the prospect (maybe not so much, he might have put on enough mass to match the ticker he's clearly shown) which would make Kane a pretty good option (assuming he's maintained conditioning somehow)

Can confirm is the "traditional openside" type.
As with the likes of a Smith, you don't see a lot of him until he emerges from under a pile of bodies with the ball and a grin...

Encouraging that O’Donnell and Amone are both being referred to as "Force players" by the Force, but would be better to see an announcement or other confirmation of extension, as publicly available knowledge that isn't the case.
