If thats the team that runs out I reckon its better balanced than previous weeks.

Sa at lock will be interesting. Involvement has been his downfall, lets hope he gets busy, even does some playmaking.

Jones on the bench is a positive, Id like to see him get a run at 9 at some stage.

SKD in the centres could work, worth a shot, he could still drop back for the high ball swapping with Pezz if needed.

[gragra]

Its a plus not having Sa in the centres, but without Fitzy doing the tackling, Sa as a replacement is a real problem. We will fix the holes out wide and now have more holes up the centre...i think the Panther forwards will run straight through if that turns out to be the on field forward makeup

What are everyone's predictions? And supporters wise who is coming? I'll be there with one flag. (Moderators please sticky this thread)

[Billy Gunn]

If our forwards don't go forward it doesn't matter who is out wide really.

We need to reduce mistakes and penalties by 50% to have any chance

[Billy Gunn]

I do like the going to CUA Stadium Fan's are generally pretty good value no matter how their team is going.

[Guest]

Wish I could go!
I will trust Phantom and TFC to do my cheering for me.

[Guest]

I like the team. I would have switched SKD and Perrett (Perrett has played some great games in the centres, I believe our dour victory over Melbourne last year, he was outstanding).

[supermario]

I am with Mack, Switch SKD and Pez, SKD is out Premier Winger.

I am sick of players being moved for the sake of utility value.

SKD is a Winger, He is our Best winger and one of the Leading wingers in the NRL !!!

WTF Move him !!!!!!

[Chook Norris]

anyone at Centre will immediately get absolutely zero ball.

farking hell that will do me. No wonder these blokes play the wya they do when they are not accountable for their actions (ie they never get dropped!!)

SKD is not a centre Freddy....FFS

Oh heck let the rant begin now!

[Chookies74]

SKD in the centres - prob because of his size, it's wait, see and cross your fingers and toes.
Sa - hope he has a crack, if not then he must be dropped
Shack - I'd push him up front, i reckon he's big enough and adds a bit of pace. Also we could then drop Lopini for doing nothing this yr, and give Ahern a go.
Push Anasta to lock at the 60 min (bit more mobility in the forwards)
and give Jones a go at 5/8 - we have nothing to lose as this yr is GORNE!

A better tweaked side would have been, IMO:

1. Jordan Tansey
2. Sisa Waqa
3. Mitch Aubusson
4. Sam Perrett
5. Shaun Kenny-Dowall
6. Ben Jones
7. Mitchell Pearce
8. FP Nuuausala
9. Jake Friend
10. Nate Myles
11. Setaimata Sa
12. Shane Shackleton
13. Braith Anasta

14. Olireti Samuela (until Aubusson is fit, at least)
15. Nick Kouparitsas (until Cherrington is fit, at least)
16. Mark O'Meley/Willie Mason
17. Lopini Paea

A much better balanced side. More mobile pack, nippier halves, more incisive backline too.

[Pass the Ball]

Agree SKD is a centre FFS..

Whoever plays centre will only be coughing on Jenning's dust anyway..
