Evans likely to make debut on Monday

[fletch]

unless injured/suspended Napa needs to be playing to help his development, spending too much time as 18th man won't help our younger forwards, they need to be getting miles in the legs.

[Guest]

so what is the bench we are carrying into Monday night?

morts
kennedy
Aubusson
evans
napa

is that right?

[Cockadoodledoo]

Maybe Napa is playing First Grade?

That tweet throws up more questions than answers...

I doubt Lara Pitt knows what she is talking about.

@Lara_Pitt_FOX: For Roosters fans,Aidan Guerra returns for Newtown following a knee injury. Kane Evans won't play- named 18th man for Roosters, Napa dropped

Maybe it means Kane Evans won't play for Newtown

Being an avid reader of all the posts you all submit being starved of rooster access in FNQ I can recall "some" posters saying "Kane" is too small for prop, needs to fill out", having never seen much of the kid - is it feasible that he will be used as back rower, considering his much publicised speed and stamina etc - food for thought

[Guest]

Evans was named 18th man on Tuesday why the need to state the obvious????

[Guest]

Great for Kane if true. Does anyone know why Guerra seems to be out of favour with the coach?

he was terrible in the round 1 game against the vermin

[stephenj]

im delighted to see some disciplinary action taken. if smith was harder we might still have carney here now?

@rustycj: Looking forward to seeing big Kane Evans make his first grade debut for the Roosters on Monday.

Napa not playing this weekend for the same reason LOD's not playing.

hopefully Robbo has set the standard by standing down the two of them, not great a month into the season several players turning up late to training

[Rooster_6]

Evans must be a certainty then?

I assume of one Guerra, Tasi or Bosden will come in as 18th man.

[bondi-boy]

i think lod will be sitting in the naughty seat behind the bench on monday night

Hopefully not while the Eels run in 6 tries and win the match.
Suspending your top FG players is a big mistake.

Allowing star players to run amok is a big part of the reason why the Canberra Raiders are perennially inconsistent. A coach that does not tolerate this crap will gain the respect and the effort out of his troops, in fact it is probably better to have a player such as Luke O'Donnell being the first player to be stood down as it shows reputation will not save you and if you play up you will be sitting in the grandstand and potentially watching someone else take your position away from you.
