SQUAD v CRONULLA SHARKS

[zac]

we're outside the top 4 playing the top team and are paying 1.55. not great value but being favourites is probably right

[BTRD]

Stuff the coach for leaving Whyte out.

relaxed robbo in the presser - no fifita, no worries

Well, it drizzled around noon for about 10 minutes here in Brisneyland, if that’s all we get , Lang Park should be the grouse

He must be injured surely.

Still a chance of Whyte being a late addition?

I think Egan will be chosen to cover centre just in case there are any injuries during the match.

Otherwise we are really left exposed if any of our backline go down as Cheese is not an 80 minute player so Watson is a cover for the forwards.

[On the Nose]

Worst fears confirmed… Whyte was dropped for tactical reason.

bloke man handled Payne haas and then gets dropped for a bloke who has yet to out muscle a first grader

If by tactical reason you mean to justify the purchase of Lenui, then probably. Whyte coming good/great and this smells very much similar to when the coach picked Napa over him.

[Chook2]

I hope Whyte comes in late as he deserves it and covered edge and lock as well
dont need someone who can cover centre as Watson can and you could put critchon there if required if an outside back when down
Otherwise once all available better to have sandon smith and Watson instead of Egan
Id have egan behind Wong and sitili but seems to be a robbo fav
whyte warmed up with the team last week and in the 19 man squad so I can’t see why he would be injured and they would still take him over others!
let’s hope robbo may have just given him a rest last week and is a late swap this week
