Surely you didn't have Noffa slated to start?
I would expect that to happen in the second wave back to training on NOV 20 with the exception of Bud and Samuela Fainu who were there in this weeks photos .
Sometimes you have to pick the side you think will be named, not the one you want to be named. I think the most pointless thing in the world are those threads where you pick your own 17. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what we plebs think.
Lobb was there this week too, although he's not in the Top 30.
If you coached a team which had Sullivan and Brooks as your only 2 options, who would you give the 7 jersey to? You don’t need to answer that I already know. I would definitely have Brooks as half.
I would have it the other way actually, just to see if that works better (more wins).
Why cannot we get rid of players like Noffa the way the dogs move them on
😂 OK, fair enough, I thought this was the Brooks thread.
Don't worry the Manly forum will soon have a Brooks thread
Maybe we haven’t tried to?
I'd lob a jersey towards lobb for his first grade debut round 2
I would hate him to leave rugby and go to them - he is all but a wests junior (schooled at St Pats Strathfield and Burwood Wolves) and his dad played for the Tigers.Bombshell rugby raid: Roosters to meet with rising Wallabies star
Roosters on the verge of snatching one of Wallabies’ best players in move that would be revenge for the loss of Joseph Suaalii.www.smh.com.au
Roosters are going after Waratahs and Wallabies winger Mark Nawaqanitawase. Type of winger we should be in for.
I believe he went to school with and played schoolboy rugby with Doueihi.
I’d be surprised if he we start with 2 21 year old wingers. One of which making his debut. I think Noffa will be there on experience alone.
Well if true what everyone is saying about next year being a dead rubber for our team we might as well chuck in the young blood from the get go to give them plenty of game time/experience in readiness for 2025
It’s one thing for the supporters to say next year is a dead rubber, but if Marshall is thinking that, then that’s a big problem. No coach picks players in round 1 to give them experience. At the end of the year maybe, not at the beginning.
