TEAM LIST Round 13 vs Bulldogs

[Mighty Mouse]

AD is listed as returning in 3 weeks on the WT website.

would love him to be back for penrith

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Do think if they line Tavana up with Montoya in attack that will work to our advantage

 

[BrissieTiger67]

He should’ve followed abdo to tennis australia

legend has it he was the one that made todd payten roll his foot on a tennis ball...

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Mason is done in nrl as a fullback

He had a beginning?

 

[GNR4LIFE]

i still feel dooi is the biggest out, the bloke is carrying this team (along with api)

This is what I’ve been saying. We’ll be better with some back this week, but AD is the straw that stirs the drink. Crazy to think how far he’s come the last two years.

 

[weststigers]

Murray provides cover for hooker and the middle.

So does Latu...aren't we doubling up?

 

[mtd#2]

Poor Toa, copping a beating when named at #19! I hope for his sake something clicks and he finds his best form.

 

[innsaneink]

Skelton for a double whoever hes up against, Jethro or Marcel

 

[Tucker]

This is a must win game.
Dogs have put up a bog average team.
Our blokes have had a big break to learn how to defend again.
No more chickenshit footy…got to win.

 

[LiamFulton]

Seriously, some of the selections are baffling. Roberts not even in the 19? Tavana back in when he clearly is not ready for NRL! Laulilii dropped for Tavana - you're joking aren't you Benji? And, finally, to cap it all off, Toa, the cat of all cats is back in. Yes, it's great to have Api, Bula and Twal back but the team could have been so much better. What about the new standards? If they were being maintained, Toa wouldn't get rewarded for his piss weak efforts. Why not Javon Andrews with Latu as back up hooker or lock?

think ll hard done by but tavana did seem to learn his lesson and do well in cup when he went back

Learning his lesson makes it sound like he was punished. He wasn’t. He just needed to go back and get his confidence back.

I heard he did well in one Cup game but I don't think that is enough to earn a recall, especially when Luke Laulilii had been solid. Mystifying.

 

[BirchgroveTiger]

API will get us going forward for sure. Twal’s work rate in defence and attack has been tremendous all season , and Bula will sort out our problems under the high ball the last 3 weeks. KPP is much more effective with these better players around him on Saturday.
Ethan Roberts should be on the bench, and I’m unhappy that To’a is even being considered by Benji!!

 

[Camel2281]

Why drop Luke L? I don't love moving Turuva from the wing, but we did well with him earlier in the year in the centres.

Roberts should be in the 19.

Luke is leaving at year's end and his defensive reads have almost been as bad as Nofa lately

 

[Camel2281]

If Benji has seen Montoya play these last few weeks he will
be telling the boys to target that area alot , whether with kicks
or just general play.
I suppose the same can be said with our side with Tavana.
(here's hoping that Tavana has learnt his lesson and can play well like we know he can)

Hopefully not having To'a inside him leaving him stranded helps

 

[terriaa]

There was that game last year against the Roosters. Pretty sure he played 80. At the very least he proved he was up to it if needed. I get he might need to his bide time with Doueihi fit, but when he’s not, it’s crazy we aren’t throwing him in and giving him more experience. Nah, let’s give him 30 mins in the middle instead 👍

Doesn't make a lot of sense does it?

 

[Camel2281]

Latu also covers the halves

 

[Camel2281]

Poor Toa, copping a beating when named at #19! I hope for his sake something clicks and he finds his best form.

I hope for our sake he leaves the club and never comes back

 

[Camel2281]

I heard he did well in one Cup game but I don't think that is enough to earn a recall, especially when Luke Laulilii had been solid. Mystifying.

Luke defensively has been really really bad. Like Nofa bad

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Luke defensively has been really really bad. Like Nofa bad

And he couldn’t catch rain standing in a downpour,
