Does anyone know what is wrong with Robinson and how long he is out for? A fit Robinson would be quite handy given Duffie's injury

Rennie will play centre pushing Kirisome to wing. Anyone else hear anything about Cronk possibly playing? Ive been told he might come off the bench against East Tigers this Saturday.

Funny you say that Luther, I had that feeling that they might play Cooper off the bench against Tigers as well. No real source just noticed that aside from full contact work he seems to be doing all aspects of training and it would be a good opportunity to get a bit of match practice in, if he is to play round one.

So it looks like Slater wont play Sunday and Munster will play fullback. Also apparently Craig mentioned in an interview somewhere in the last day or so that Hampton will be 5/8th in round 1.

Also in an interview that just went to air on 4bc Brisbane Craig mentioned Cronk is touch and go for round 1.

@toddbalym 4 mins
One day Melb Storm spine could read Cameron Munster, Ben Hampton, Cody Walker & Kurt Mann. Mann's effort in No.9 tonight promising.

Good signs of Mann being Smith's future replacement.

The final score was 16-12 to East Tigrrs matt lodge made a complete stuff up in the last 5 minutes hitting high then dropping the ball when on the run to the line we possibly could've won but in the end it was too late

1.Tremaine Jensen played well but was caught out a few times

2. Rubbann Rinnie played well but let in a try that ended up winning easts the game

3. Junior Kirisome I like this guy

4. Niua Finau pukua very good D

5. Suliasi Vunivalu didn't watch him too much but looked like he did alright

6. Jake Turpin good but not great

7. Cody Walker was ok but throwing passes really low or not finding anyone to pass to but passes anyway

8. Dayne Weston looks good stopped a try and good runs

9. Kurt Mann man of the match played brilliant

10. George Rose started on the field and was REALLY QUIET for the first 20 came of and went back on for the last 10 and made a lot of metres leading to our 2nd try was good in the 2nd half also encouraging the young forwards Rhys Kennedy Christian welch and matt lodge telling them where to stand who to hit (we sat next to their bench)

11. Junior Moors played well but didn't really take much notice

12. Tim Glasby he made metres was good came off with 20 to go nothing in the tank

13. Kenny Bromwich really good metre eater came off for a rest and was immediately put back on

14. Matt Lodge is a good player but silly errors cost the game

15. Christian Welch good game for Christian and works well with Rhys also good to watch George help them out pointing things out before going on

16. Rhys Kennedy as above

17. Billy Kitt as above

Anthony Siebolds was the coach

Thanks Sallymay. I guess that means either Young will start round 1 on wing or Juzzy will be on wing and Mahe at centre.
