Matt Moylan Israel Ogden, 26. 3. The confirmed team lists for this week's NRL trial matches.

Ky Rodwell, 18. Kenny Bromwich 1. Cade Cust (thumb) looks set to miss the start of the year while Lachan Croker (hamstring) is in doubt, which leaves them even shorter for the hooker position. On top of that, Payne Haas (suspension) will miss the opening three games and they will also be without strike centre Kotoni Staggs (ACL) for half the season. 2. 3. Josh Dugan 11. Jack Gosiewski 7. 17. 8. 2.

New signings Michael Oldfield, Tom Opacic, Keegan Hipgrave and Isaiah Papalii will start, while Tim Lafai has been included on the bench. They look solid in the forwards following the additions of James Tamou and Joe Ofahengaue, but it is hard to see them competing with the top sides due to their spine. 12. New signing Patrick Herbert will start the year at centre, while Tyrone Peachey is likely to play a role off the bench. 15. Kobe Hetherington, 10. Keaon Koloamatangi played mostly in the middle in 2020, but came through the grades as an edge forward, however, Bennett has opted for Jacob Host. David Mead Jacob Kiraz, 3.

Ben Te'o, Gains: Dale Copley, John Asiata, Andrew McCullough, David Mead, Losses: David Fifita, Darius Boyd, Matt Gillett, Jack Bird, Sean O'Sullivan, Joe Ofahengaue, Analysis: Brisbane will have their work cut out for them this year - especially after losing rep forwards in Fifita and Ofahengaue.

Tyson Smoothy, Gains:  Reimis Smith, Harry Grant, George Jennings, Losses:  Suliasi Vunivalu, Tino Fa'asuamaleaui, Paul Momirovski, Albert Vete, Ricky Leutele, Analysis:  The loss of Cameron Smith is hard to measure - he has been their leader and best player for so long. Harry Grant (knee) will miss the first three games of the season, which will see Brandon Smith line up at his favoured position of hooker. 13.

Their weakness is at hooker, with new coach Nathan Brown putting all his faith in Wayde Egan (elbow), who is racing the clock to be fit for round 1. Tyrone Peachey Analysis:  They have been very prominent in the player market - but there are still some glaring weaknesses in their side. Kyle Flanagan has been signed as their chief playmaker, despite struggling in 2020 in a much stronger side. Ash Taylor Daniel Alvaro, 11. Dan Ticehurst, 20. Tyson Frizell Analysis:  With so many experienced players gone from the Dragons, you would have expected some more big-name signings. Cameron McInnes (knee) has been ruled out for the year after rupturing his ACL, with Andrew McCullough signing with the Dragons to play hooker.  Jack Bird is a great addition if he can stay fit, and has revealed he wants to play centre despite earlier reports he would play in the back row. 21. 19. Michael Chee-Kam Josh King Interchange: 14.

Nick Cotric (ankle) was injured in the trial against Cronulla, but should be fit to play. Sam Walker, Losses:  Mitchell Aubusson, Kyle Flanagan, Poasa Faamausili, Ryan Hall, Christian Tuipulotu, Sonny-Bill Williams, Analysis:  Still one of the strongest sides in the comp on paper - but there are question marks over the halves. Sam Walker is a star of the future, but it will be Lachlan Lam who gets first crack alongside Luke Keary, following Kyle Flanagan's departure. Boyd Cordner has had plenty of issues with concussion, and he looks set to sit out the first 12 weeks.
