I hope Blair plays centre and Kostjasyn at 6. I have lost all faith in Champion. Even last night he was gifted a try by Coops that anyone in the NRL would've scored. And he almost bombed it!! (in a tight game i reckon they'd have disallowed it).

My biggest concern is Quinn marking up in defence against Uate, last night Leilua looked like a superstar as do most guys Quinn marks, that 1st try where he watched the ball bounce over his head, his pathetic jersey grab on Guerra's try, his terrible positioning all night cost us about 4 tries, and worst of all he's lost that hard work out of trouble we used to see from him, terrible under the high ball.. Bellamy you cannot keep picking this goose Newcastle will have a field day down that edge, i honestly would rather see:

4. Champion/Nielsen
5. Nielsen/Champion/Niko/Waqa/Injured O'Neill/Williame/Chisholm/Tounamipea/Solamona

And we are all aware of my thoughts on Champion...

This is what I think the team will be. Id think the Knights will play up-tempo with alot of ball movement so Id expect Rory to keep his spot on the bench

1.Slater
2.Duffie
3.Nielsen
4.Champion
5.Quinn
6.Blair
7.Cronk
8.Bromwich
9.Smith
10.Norrie
11.Proctor
12.Manu

I agree, what the hell has happened to his strong running game? That was his greatest asset and he has lost it. Waqa had one bad game and he was dropped. Quinny has about about 5 bad games and he still keeps his spot. Waqa needs to get that wing spot I believe. He helps the tired forwards out by taking lots of hitups(What Quinny used to do).

waqa is my choice over quinn as well. he takes the hard hit ups no one else wants to, 1 bad game under the high ball but normally pretty good, and if he is out of position in defence he is quick enough to cover up. a lot better option than quinn, but bellyache sees something else that we dont ???
