2026-27 Off Season

[Dave03]

As a guide

FRF 1: TC 50min/JH 30min = 80min
FRF 2: LPT 30min/ RC 50min = 80min
Lock: KK 50min/ Watson 30min = 80min
HOK: Lidds 60min/ Watson 20min = 80min
2rf: Stewart & Egan = 80min

3 reserves used = Watson, JH & RC. Roughly 6-7 rotations
1 reserve spare = injury or tactics. Should be 1 rotation

- I'd like to have one of the couchman twins on the field at all times, would start RC from the bench.
- I want LPT to start for the early physical exchanges then bring on RC against fatigued middles.
- I'm not fussed who starts between Lidds or Watson.
- Ball playing middle would be great to link our halves & edges. Ideally it's Stewart in 2028 or 2029.

KK is the Dragons highest paid player. I'd have him on for 60~65. He was playing even longer than that at Souths. I know Souths didn't have the luxury of 2 Couchman's playing a lot of minutes in the middle but I'd still like Dean Young to find a way to have all 3 on for a lot of minutes.
