I would love to see Howe replaced with Tanielu though. I think he deserves a decent shot at first grade.

14. Evarn Tuimavave
16. Epalahame Lauaki
17. Shannon Stowers
18. Thomas Leuluai
20. Manu Vatuvei
22. Jerome Ropati
This is probably there strongest team for a long time, and I'd be lieing if I said I wasn't worried about this game. Melbourne really needs to show they are definite contenders. If we play like we have in the last 2 games we will be beaten.
*Robbie Kearns will play his 250th first grade game on Sat.
*Matt Geyer will play his 150th and in doing so equal Marcus Bai's record for most games with the club (144).
*Tony Martin will return to Melbourne for the first time since winning the grand final with the Storm.

Wow has he been injured/not selected in every other game at OP since then or have we only ever played them in NZ?Earl wrote:*Tony Martin will return to Melbourne for the first time since winning the grand final with the Storm.

And the only other time Melbourne has played against him was against the Warriors in NZ earlier in the year.
Ummm, Tozza left at the end of 2000.
Therefore Earl is once again wrong.

Dr. Farthing: Well, it was either from sleeping on it the wrong way or a booky throwing me out of a speeding car...
