2010 team

No doubt about it 2010 is shaping to be a year of great expectations for the Tigers. I find myself stuggling to be objective and not see anything less than a GF apearance as failure.

I don't think having both Taumata and Flanagan on the bench is a good move. That bench is too small with 2 small blokes, and I think Tupou would be in the side somewhere if he is fit.

I hear Flanagan is almost 6'3" and wanting to start the season close to 100kg.

Team 1 v Team 2 ...........Who would win.....using players avaiable currently training with the first grade 2010 Squad????????...

Or come up with your own 2 team, combination....

Deserves its own thread imo…..good work.

Definitely food for thought.

Id have to go team 2

Team one for mine,
I don't really like team 2's 1-7 and although there forwards are better I dont think it would make a big enough difference for them to beat team 1.

Not too bad but Moltzen has to be fullback and Lawrence in the centres on last years form
Only Master coach Tim will know
Go The Mighty Tigers
 
If I had to pick a team to run out today then I've settled for this (assuming Tuquiri is on board)

1\. **Taumata**
2\. Tuiaki
3\. Lawrence
4\. Ayshford
5\. Tuquiri
6\. **Marshall**
7\. **Moltzen**
8\. Cayless
9\. **Farah**
10\. Galloway
11\. Ellis
12\. Heighnington
13\. **Fulton**

14\. Dwyer
15\. Gibbs
16\. Payten
17\. Moors/Fafita
Maybe missing a back on the bench but I hate carrying a bloke and only giving him 5 minutes ala Hanbury. Flanagan or Fitzy might just be that player though knowing Sheens history with the bench. Geez Dwyer would get through some work though.

If Moltzen plays fullback I hope he has learnt how to defend against kicks properly and return the ball from kicks at speed. I would rather a fullback with size to run the ball back hard. We went awesome when Moltz was at halfback. We shouldn't have ever moved him from halfback.

i like lawrence at fullback but not sure abt ryan in the centres?i gotta have moltzen in starters,hell of a yr last yr and is going to be even better for it this yr,i dont know much about gower how does he go?
 
agreed about moltzen,but everyone here seems to think lawrence has been a great centre,he hasnt impressed me much there,i would like to see him shifted to the wing or possibly even fullback.

This is the way i see the team for ROUND 1 v Manly

1\. Mitch Brown
2\. Beau Ryan
3\. Chris Lawrence
4\. Blake Ayshford
5\. LOTE TUQIRI (will be here for Rd 1)
6\. Benji Marshall
7\. Tim Moltzen

11\. Gareth Ellis
12\. Chris Heighington
13\. Liam Fulton

14\. Arana Taumata
15\. Todd Payten
16\. Junior Moors
17\. Jason Cayless

The only change to the above i can see is:

Blake Ayshford to move to lock, Rhys Pritchard into the centres and Fulton to the bench with Taumata to drop off.
 
going by what i hear from the folkes interview and not including lote

1\. Brown
2\. Tuiaki
3\. Ayshford
4\. Lawrence
5\. Ryan
6\. Marshall
7\. Moltzen
8\. Gibbs
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
