Why not chuck Naden on the wing and Faataape in the centre. At least Naden has height for the bombs so it can be contested a little better. But hey we have won more with Faataape then lost so who am I to say anything. His proved me wrong so far this year.

With words like that. Especially the last 2 sentences... you are the real deal.

Matamua getting another run?
Surely someone else is knocking on the door….

I thought that about the Canberra game as well. A step up in opposition for sure but anything is possible I guess.

Then Keary, Walker, Tedesco and Manu will run it. It’s like fixing a hose, soon as you plug one hole another pops up in a different spot !

On paper, it's a mismatch of Australia v Lebanon proportions. If the Roosters are on song, it will be a shellacking. However, if we can keep it to a respectable scoreline, we can maintain morale and target some wins later in the season.

The backline is terrifying, but so is the forward pack, not to mention the two state of origin reps on the bench.
Whereas Penrith are a mix of superstars and toilers, the entire Roosters team is 8+.

The giraffe of the wing for the Chooks usually gets a double or a treble against us. Walker will be kicking to Toops all night, and you would imagine with some success.
A win would be unbelievable but absolutely long odds. We need to be competitive and no big blow outs. After the next two games if we remain upbeat and confident we should be capable of winning a few games on the run home

We don’t need to win, just need to play with the heart we did in the first few weeks of the season. Don’t want the side who played the Dragons twice.

Stefano needs to rip Walkers head off the little twerp (legally).

Hope klems stays disciplined & stays out of trouble
He's like our version of JWH
We need a bit of mongrel off the bench without the headaches

I’ll be there with Mrs Tito and my two little Tito’s. Come on the boys!
Assuming Olam comes in for Naden, they are two strong backlines.
Forwards are strong too.
It’s going to come down to which forward pack turns up on the day and who wins the ruck. Closer game than people give it credit for IMO.
If our forwards lay the platform, Bula, Galvin, Doueihi & Faatape edge will be dangerous. Same with Sezer/Olam/Lauilii.

Yeah, with Pole starting up front and a bit of ball playing from lock with Matamua and Seyfarth off the bench again as hoped, so do I.

Good on Benji for backing the kids again.
This is a real test to see where they are against
With what is listed we do not have a strong backline or forward pack.
