Round 19 vs Titans

[Papenhuyzen23]

LOOONNNGGGG turnaround until this game, a good rest for a lot of the squad and injury brigade as well, Oryn Keeley also gets some reps in at training for a few weeks.

Should see the return of some players like Howarth, Meaney and potentially Hughes but according to CB it’s doubtful, looks like we might be without Lisati though for a while too, could potentially get a few more additions before the cut off tomorrow, Xerri & Manu the main links.

Potential line up :


1. Sua FA’ALOGO
2. Will WARBRICK
3. Jack HOWARTH
4. Nick MEANEY
5. Moses LEO
6. Cameron MUNSTER
7. Jahrome HUGHES
8. Stefano UTOIKAMANU
9. Harry GRANT (c)
10. Josh KING
11. Oryn KEELEY
12. Shawn BLORE
13. Trent LOIERO

14. Tyran WISHART
15. Cooper CLARKE
16. Alex MACDONALD
17. Joe CHAN

18. Trent TOELAU
19. Stanley HUEN


Caught the highlights of the NSW Cup team there is some talent down there, some big bodies and some skilful halves and a lot of pace out wide, wonder if a few might get the call up soon, Satrick always impresses me I’d be trying to get him into the top grade for exposure ASAP

Looong way from Melbourne at the moment, did we win the bye?

[sallymay]

Open training in Casey this week too..almost tempting to treck out there just to meet Oryn ….almost


It’s on Tuesday at 2 of anyone is out that way and not working or working from home

Looong way from Melbourne at the moment, did we win the bye?

Faded badly in the second half, but scraped home in the end.

I think the work of Trent Loiero will upset some.

Keeley will play

The two competition points were never in doubt .

Round 19 and we’re still seeing middles named to start in the back row. That along with the outside backs musical chairs is what has killed our season.

[Lucas]

Howarth in and out and in and out.

Blore misses again when we need him most. He's been such a disappointment this year. With Katoa out, we needed him to hit a new level, not recommence his Wests Tigers level.

[Papenhuyzen23]

Need to probably win 7 of 8 to make the finals, it’s looking grim.

Neither Clarke or MacDonald are back rowers, they are both middles plugging a hole, the fact we have Chan and Keeley sitting on the bench is infuriating honestly, Chan was very poor in centres but he is a better option than either of those guys in the back row.

Conn? Hinchey? I’m not sure how CB keeps getting this wrong, he has slow immobile centres and middles masquerading as backrowers defending inside them, on top of the we have 2 of the worst culprits in the league for missed tackles in the halves and it explains how we get ripped apart in an attack minded competition.

Agree about Blore too, massive let down in a season we needed him to step up.

Imagine we played another team running middles on the edge? Honestly if Manly played Hethrington and Brown on the edges we would have run rings around them all night.

[blazza18]

In before Sally comes in and tells us they're injured but I don't get why we've had Conn, Hinchey and to a lesser extent Huen play minutes for us this year and then completely vanish when we're desperate for guys in the second row. All three make more sense than what we've been doing this year.

None of them are injured I’m pretty sure it’s more to do with being on development contracts in fairness Stanley played our last NrL game and played big minutes

Im actuality surprised Hinchy hasn’t played more games in nrl this year he has been best player in the cup team for like 4/5 weeks ina row

[Papenhuyzen23]

I assume the 3 origin guys are all backing up in what is a must win game at home on 4 days rest? Anyone heard anything?
