TEAM LIST Round 1 vs. Titans

[Tim Sheens]

Just as @tigerap said it would be.

There's no way Bateman was playing this game.... Just can't tell some people

Personally like Tupou over Staines, but I hope Charlie kills it regardless ! Let’s take a round 1 win fellas

I'd have had Tupou over Nofa

 

[Winston Churchill]

As expected, gotta be 20+ points in this team over the Giants/Seagulls/Chargers/Titans 4.0

 

[Winston Churchill]

I'd have had Tupou over Nofa

By the end of the year it'll be that way.

 

[jrtiger]

no surprises, happy with that. bring on Round 1.

I'd have had Tupou over Nofa

Still hating

 

[Camel2281]

Someone explain to me the logic of having Twal on the bench?

Because you need 2 props on the bench for the middle rotation.

 

[Camel2281]

Still hating

Not hating. Just a personal preference. I prefer Nofa to Ken when they're all fit

 

[Winston Churchill]

Thank god we aren't putting out Plodder FC anymore.

Did you see who they named at 7?

 

[Stevec]

Team is exactly what I predicted and would pick .Hopefully Bateman in week 2 and Blore to bench which improves bench

 

[diedpretty]

I think we can dominate their pack.... Over to you luke

Yea i think we definitely outdo their pack - we will need to shut Foran down.

 

[gallagher]

Just as @tigerap said it would be.

Still leaks 🤣
Looking forward to seeing the pack go.

Coach: Tim Sheens

Wasn't keen on AK in the 17 as an armchair coach, but when you think about his versatility to play, 2,3,4, 10 and 11
I do understand why they have him there.

 

[upthetigers]

Because you need 2 props on the bench for the middle rotation.

Yeah but he can play long minutes and isn't an impact player?

 

[BrissieTiger67]

You know Sheens is back when he brings out the 2 forward bench and 2 utility
Tigers by 14

He's back baby!!

 

[Speed2burn]

Yea i think we definitely outdo their pack - we will need to shut Foran down.

I reckon his hamstrings will do a good job of that

 

[Speed2burn]

I think we do them comfortably. They have some talented forwards but are lazy.

David Fifita is the Latrell Mitchell of forwards - can win you games on his own but can also lose you a lot of games aswell

 

[Tiger-ferret]

That’s arguably the strongest, most balanced team list in years. If they gel it will be exciting to watch. Bring on 2023 🐯

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

good team we should win this by 12
