Graham & Jaubs passed fit to play sunday

[Guest]

we both know this weekend will be nothing like last weekend. i think we'd be silly to risk a player with an easily exacerbated injury.

Considering he said he wasnt sure himself on monday one has to wonder if he is truly ready or they are just rushing him.....

I agree Leilua will offer us better grunt and hence better field position, St Merge also attack on their left which will be the side of Perrett/SKD.

BJ is best off the bench as a back rower. He is damaging.

its the gf fitz. a backrower on the wing no matter how strong he is he is a big big liability. graham on the other hand has a wealth of experience and is pretty solid defensively on the wing. if he gets injured then sub BJ straight onto the wing - its no real loss - when BJ played from the bench in 17 last time he barely got anytime and nor did jaubs last week who was in effect filling the 'utility' spot on the bench so we can afford to carry him there and risk graham's injury worsening. the worst case scenario is he comes off injured and BJ ends up on the wing anyway. so what. graham must play

So what????

If he gets injured in the first tackle he makes, we have a three man bench for the rest of the game against one of the best forward packs in the NRL. I want Phil to play but only if he is 100%......not 1% less. This is a Grand Final and if there is a 100% option then we need to use it.

Gasnier would run rings around BJ on the wing. For all his shortcomings we need Graham out there to get rid of Saints one of three attacking options.

Maybe but BJ would steam roll Nightingale.

Graham won't play according to Brian Smith on NRL on Fox about 5 mins ago.

That show has become almost bearable since they got rid of Warren whatever his name was that use to host it. Man I can't stand that ******. What happened, did he get sacked or what. Good move if so. They still need to lose Freeman though. And Sailor.

a fully fit graham is the obvious choice but to me, if i know a bloke is only 95%, i'd run at him, elbow in the chest put him out within the first 5 or 10 mins. done. i think he has to be 100%.

SKD said they are treating this game like any other.....but that they are very focused.....

I can not wait til Sunday.....

What would you expect him to say?
