Metcalf is easily their best option at 5/8. TMM second. CHT will probably find his way into the side on the bench after some injuries.

Second year syndrome for coach

Onward and upward for the Wahs.

Hope they go well, and they deserve to ... but a part of me wonders whether (a) Johnson can repeat last year's form; (b) AFB is in the right headspace after signing with another team for next year; (c) whether there might be a bit of second year syndrome for Webster and (d) whether a historically inconsistent team can back it up from last year?
