ryan tandy, hopefully he will unleash the mo'



but yeah, dane nielsen must be playing some good footy for CC cause hes jumped ahead of anderson and even some u20s

[MENACING*STORM]

He looks like a sadistic PE Teacher

[nacho]

or burt reynolds lol

[Super Cronk]

still a decent side. Dont like Turner at the back tho. He cant  catch a drop out let alone bombs from benji.

Will be good to see how nielson goes. hinchy will do a great job.

[I love Cooper]

Yep a very decent side. Not sure where Maloney will go seeing the two senior players Finch and Coops are still there.

Oh Ryan Tandy! I like him already! 

[Bullets]

Is Isa still injured or just hated?

Interesting to see what Nielson has got.

Im not sure where Maloney fits in? Halves are the usual and Hinchcliffe can play all 80. I'd be going for the extra forward on the bench. Go my boy Koopu again.
 
lol @ Ryan Tandy....wtf?

Not the worse team considering who we have out. Still will be a pretty big if we win though. Tigers looked alright last night

[I love Cooper]

Isa played for CC Storm last week, his first week returning. Not sure if he's 100% fit or not.

[steaming stormer]

Nielsen the bolter, but other than that about what I expected.  Bellyache always likes to carry a utility on the bench, which is where Maloney fits in.  That way if anything arises during the game we have our bases covered.
Zap is a hard one - he's looked shaky under the high ball this year, but then he was recruited as a fullback, so positionally he should be fine.  Here's my tip - Zap FTS and MOM!

[storm_rhinos]

Much stronger side than Origin last year - and Finchy will really help control the team rathe than just having to rely on Coops - and Hinchcliffe has way more experience than Aitken - so not a bad team, especially given tigers have a couple of injuries such as Ellis and Farrah away -

He'd be cute if he got rid of that mo

I hope they give Ryan Tandy a go this weekend. I am a big fan of his since seeing him play a number of games for Balmain Ryde in NSW Cup last year and for Ireland in RLWC. He is a work horse, can put a dent in the opposition's defensive line and as we have seen with the Central Coast this year can definitely score a try.

I would love to see him get a chance particularly against (one of) his old side(s). Surely he must be able to provide us with as much if not more than Scott Anderson.

the mo' ,maketh the man

[bula]

I think we may see Koopu start at centre. Tandy's Mo is one of the best ive seen 
Hinchcliffe has looked really good the last couple of weeks, so Im expecting him to have a big one.
Turner is abit like Robertson at the Eagles, everytime they're at fullback they just dont look interested.
Tigers played well last week and usually do well against us so im tipping them in a close one.

[Taliesin]

Ryan Tandy - Tom Selleck  Take a look & judge for yourself.

I think Zap just might 'look interested' this weekend 
Hinchy tends to step up when given the opportunity.
I like Koopu as an impact player off the bench.
Think the 'Tiggers' had some good service from Farah last week.His absence + their poor record after a Monday turnaround may work in Storm's favour.
