Molan pumped for NRL seasonBy: RNA - February 15, 2018, 03:56:11 PM
I asked my first Origin related question of the year during a radio interview with Brad Fittler last week, yes - the actual NRL season hasn't even kicked off, yes - there's months to go until Origin Game 1 - yes - a million things will happen and change before any team is finalised, but it felt so good to start talking about Rugby League after what feels like a mammoth break.
I am so pumped up for this season. There are so many sub-plots. So many huge stories just waiting to break. Some of the biggest stars have left the only home they've ever known for fresh starts - and I can't wait to see how they go. Will Roosters recruit Cooper Cronk be JUST as good without Cameron Smith feeding him the ball?
Will new Knight Mitchell Pearce thrive under Nathan Brown at Newcastle? Will the new Penrith combination of Nathan Cleary and James Maloney catapult them into Freddy's starting Blues team? Will Johnathan Thurston return from injury and guide the Cowboys to another glorious Premiership? What about the Eels - could Jarryd Hayne turn back the clock and just like in 2009 inspire Parramatta to return to the glory days? Wouldn’t that be something! And of course – that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
