Haycock helps run local satellite training for the players alongside Dubbo CYMS great Luke Jenkins.
The 28-player squad is large enough to run two separate lines – which is exactly what happened in Sunday’s trial against the Central Coast Roosters at Penrith.
“All of them were really competitive and there wasn’t much of a difference between the two [lines] so selectors have got a pretty tough decision to make,” Haycock said.
St Johns Dubbo duo Bray Porter and Zac Williams scored in the trial, while South Dubbo’s Aston Warwick was also a standout.
“A lot of great kids … they all had a red hot go,” Haycock said.
“We’ve had a fair bit of success … We were lucky enough to win with the 16s last year so there’s fairly highly expectations about how we should be travelling in this competition.”
