  • Team next week

    Good luck picking it right if everyone is back and no suspension or injuries tonight.
    There will be some unlucky boys who miss out. Whyte probably the unluckiest. He is a beast.

    Whyte ain’t missing out. It’ll be Sitili, Egan and Wong. Whyte can fill in at lock and second row.

      I tend to agree.

        Wong seems to be a bit off the pace from the rest of the pack, Angus,and Nat deserve their spot in the back row, and with Radley back, Watson deserves a bench spot.

        Pauga has filled in admirably as he is needed too.

              I said last week that it shouldn’t happen, but maybe Victor should be moved to an edge to accomodate Connor Watson at 13. His form has been sublime and it would be almost impossible to drop him after the last two weeks. Radley to replace Butcher in the starting lineup, bench of Sandon Smith, May, Whyte, Leniu, with the Butchers, Wong and Sitili to fight their way into the team based on form from 2nd grade. That gives us a very powerful bench and that extra spark from Conor and Sandon. My God we have a good set of forwards this year, with bloody good depth. Just keep picking them on form and we should see an improvement across the board based on the competition for spots.

              I’d be happy to see Pauga start at centre until Billy Smith is back as well in place of Suaalii; he goes well.

                Good post agree with everything.
                Pauga has really impressed me.
                Watson at Lock and Victor on an edge gets all our in form player’s on the field with a super strong bench.
                But can our coach bring himself to move Victor.

                  Why would you move one of the best locks in the comp and arguably one of our top 3 players all year to make a starting spot for Watto? Watson definitely deserves the utility spot on the bench but he doesn't have first shot at lock. He will add plenty of value on the bench.

                  I said Pauga deserves a spot instead of Jenko when injuries occur. Jenko wouldn't have done what Pauga did tonight. He is faster and a good defender. Happy Jenko got his 300 games and scored a farewell try but hopefully he doesn't play first grade ahead of Pauga again.

                    Good point, that’s why I’m not a first grade coach, just some dude on a super high from a great win!

                      LOL. We have plenty of self proclaimed NRL coaches here. I haven't heard from one particular les goofball tonight. Still trying to disect what he can pick on in tonight's performance.

                        I agree with everything you are saying but conner brings speed through the middle of the field which opens up our game so much more and gets away from that predictable block plays we dish out at times.

                          Victor has been our best player this year.....he won't be moving to accommodate anyone

                            After what I seen the last 2 weeks, I think Watson could play any position on the football field and excel.
                            He is a gem.
