Carter in, Watson out

According to The Telegraph...

Seriously? Is he injured or just wants the bigger body on the bench?

Not surprising. The opens rounds have a focus on fitness, and Carter is a better fit at Sub Hooker and or Second Row. We cannot have Aubo, Carter and Watson in the same team.

Tough call to make as coach ay!! Those utility players are so talented that you don't wanna leave our your Aubos, Mattersons and Watsons (particularly Matterson... frigging brick shytehouse who can also play centre, hooker and halves). However, you need some REAL bulk on your bench to do the heavy lifting, meaning that super talented utility players need to get left out to allow for more pigs on the bench.

Question... has any coach experimented with using 2-4 utilities on the bench? With Aubo and Matterson being two, I feel you can almost do it without losing too much size (and more than making up for it with their vision/intelligence).

.Carter impressed me at the nines good move by robbo imo

And besides Peats, it looks like Titans are full strength. And it's a real good squad they have put together. Even Paasi, who I really rate and killed us last year, has been cleared from a shoulder injury to play. We will have to play really good footy.

Aubo, Guerra, Evans and Matterson offer very little go forward, yes they have other attributes but carrying 4 pigs with very little mongrel and yards in them is too many. I like Carter in

I think we can, however the pack would have to have some other movements. In the end I think Guerra causes the massive imbalance to our pack. SST is such a massive loss right now. I would go with th below to give us a bigger middle third. Guerra's zero go forward. slow play the balls, inability to pass before or at the line, inability to slow the ball carrier's when making a tackle, poor lateral movement in defence when exhausted after 20 minutes and dumb penalties will kill us.

Very harsh on Watson.

He's a good kid so would take the news well I'm sure.

[Keith]

I call BS.
Watson must be in the team , as well as Carter.

Guerra to drop right out.
I'd rather have Pearce/Watson and Keary on the bench.

I'll be very disappointed if Watson doesn't get a run.

[rented tracksuit]

I'm sure whoever runs out there tomorrow will do us proud and if we get up, we will all be singing Trents praises.

[Guest]

Carter in for Guerra should be the only change

[Bronterooster]

I think Carter will play instead of Matterson.

[Lydon]

I think Carter will play instead of Matterson.

Makes a lot more sense

Watson was more impressive.
