game week first trial againt the Panthers

[fletch]

great that we only have a few days left until we have some actual football to talk about.

will be interesting how much game time Robbo gives Teddy/Cronk.

also keen to see who starts at right centre.

anyone know if either club is live streaming the trial?

[Rooster_6]

Robbo hasn't traditionally used a lot of first string players in the first trial game.

Be very surprised if we saw Tedesco or Cronk.

has been a few articles over recent weeks that anyone who is fit will see some game time, even Cordner and JWH who have had limited preseasons.

Where are the details for this game like time and ground? I'll be in Sydney this weekend so wouldn't mind seeing it though I'm on limited time.

I thought Robbo normally plays half with a very strong outfit, then puts all the kids on. Will be heading out to the trial , can' believe how quickly it comes around each year

Should be a tough a trial, by all reports a bit to prove in both camps

I know this comes up every year, but it stuns me they charge fans to attend trial games.

Just wrong.

Star recruits Cooper Cronk and James Tedeso are not expected to feature in the trial while Test players Boyd Cordner and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves are also expected to be rested.

Agreed. Last time I watched one the stars were all out there but they only played ~10-15 all up.

I know the Knights beat the Storm by fielding a 1st grade team. But like... you’re generally not aiming to win a trial, you are there to try stuff out.
