#41 Saad El-Hawli - thru 2026

He’s going to be playing his first four matches of the season under Ramadan fasting conditions.

You’d think that would be very challenging. Although some of them reckon they play even better. Two of them are night games at least.

If I remember correctly, Adam Saad always seemed to play particularly well during Ramadan.

Yeah, I remember Saad could get an exception as long as he makes up for it later. Or something like that.

Dw, hes going to do the same with Roberts.

Saad hasnt exactly put him self in calculations for a spot in the side this pre season

He should be beating Laverde for his spot

Laverde has a hip injury.

Then this is Saads chance to take his spot

Funny how the club failed to mention that Lav is injured i wonder who else is injured that the club arent telling us

I don’t see him battling LAV more so Roberts and perhaps prior or maybe 2 of these 3 could make it…

Laverde has no spot to give, Reid is our CHB

Reid is taking LAV’s spot.

Like others have said, it’s Roberts & Prior.
Assuming the coaches don’t believe he is ready yet to take on the attacking hbfer role that has been given to Shiel.

Yeah Saad will get his chance

There are Wing minutes available on the non Duursma wing, and The Arrow tends to miss a chunk of games per year, opening up more opportunities for SEH & Roberts.

Didn’t he kick 4 goals in a half before getting injured? Why is he being talked about as a HBF?

Fair point.
It might be Wing/HF.

There’s some competition there as well.
Martin
Durham will presumably rest forward on occasions.
Perkins
Gresh

Don’t even joke about that.
Leave the funny stuff to Stallion, Mr James.

do you think im joking

Of all the positions Saad could take, I never envisioned our key defender Laverde keeping Saad out :joy:

Alright…listen, and listen good.

I’m right on the edge here of supporting this crapola side.
Only our shift in more youth and investing in the draft has me coming back this season.

Watching LAV fluff around for 15+ games, getting his ar*e handed to him every second week, that will break me !
