Utai **_<big>and</big>_** Brown over Lortay??

I think you may have just left him out.. :smiley:

I'm also assuming you mean a full strength side….
 
1.McKinnon
2.Ryan
3.Ayshford
4.Brown
5.Utai
6.Marshall
7.Lui
8.Gibbs
9.Farah
10.Galloway
11.Dwyer
12.Ellis
13.Heighington

14.Moltzen
15.Fulton
16.Payten
17\. Woods/Fifita
 
Ellis might as well be 100% before returning.

We should have enough forward stock to cover his absence.

Remember Payten and Gibbs are back after the bye and we also had BMM return last match.

Woods, Fifita and Dwyer are gaining valueable experience and more game time.
 
word is Ellis is out for longer but Tuqiri will be back

1\. McKinnon
2\. Tuqiri
3\. Ayshford
4\. Moltzen
5\. Utai
6\. Marshall
7\. Lui
8\. Galloway
9\. Farah
10\. Gibbs (with super glue and a thorough explanation of what warrants penalties being issued)
11\. Fulton
12\. Dwyer
13\. Heighington

14\. Brown - or swap with moltzen
15\. Fifita
16\. BMM
17\. Woods

*a defensively stronger starting pack to set up the opening 20 minutes. Keep Souths scoreless, hopefully put in a couple of tries and then watch them crumble as the big boppas on the bench come on
 
Big boost if Tuqiri is back, but I won't bank on it just yet, but the Tigers should field a pretty strong side all the same:

1\. McKinnon
2\. Utai
3\. Ayshford
4\. Moltzen/Brown
5\. Brown/Tuqiri
6\. Marshall
7\. Lui
8\. Fifita
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Dwyer
12\. Fulton
13\. Heighington

14\. Moltzen (if Tuqiri is fit)/ Ryan
15\. Gibbs
16\. Payten
17\. Woods
 
spotted in Balmain with the cast off a couple of weeks ago
"should be back after the bye" - straight from the horses mouth

could be BS though
 
1\. McKinnon
2\. Ryan
3\. Ayshford
4\. Brown
5\. Utai
6\. Benji
7\. Lui
8\. Fifita
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Fulton
12\. Dwyer
13\. Heighno

14\. Moltzen
15\. Woods
16\. BMM
17\. Gibbs

If Ellis is back, Fulton bench, Moltz state cup.
 
What is Moltzen's contract situation with WT? Souths need a replacement for Sandow and I think Moltzen is a half-back, more than anything else. The glamour and glitz of Souths may well appeal to him too….hope I'm not dong the guy an injustice here, but he strikes me more of a "career" player than a "club" player. And, in Robert Lui, we have the makings of a top notch half-back for the Tigers. We should make sure we keep him at WT.
 
Ive been told BMM is very quick. Not sure if thats true, but if so, maybe he could fill the void left by Lawrence at left centre? Its a gamble of course, but imagine it was successfull, he'd be dynamite out wide and would allow us to keep other young forwards in the team. I just cant see Moltzen giving us enough in the centres and believe we need to come up with something. The safer option would be Josh Davis, but i cant see Sheens doing that.

Murdoch has very good pace over 40 metres and is very explosive. Saw him score a few tries last season from hitting the ball out wide in a centre position and bumping off players with ease. Having said that, he's a forward through and through and I cannot see Sheens having him defend in the centres. He is still way down on match fitness and if Gibbs and Payten are fit to play Souths, I reckon that will result in BMM playing in the NYC to work on his match fitness.
 
I think inglis might be out for the souths game because he got injured in the Australia/New Zealand game and didn't come back on the field for the rest of the game, not sure if he will be playing against the tigers on saturday night.

I heard Inglis will be unavailable for SOO1 for QLD as well.

Still 16 days to go Spartan . If there is no major damage i think he will play . Only concern was the hip joint itself and if that is damaged he probably would almost miss whole SOO series
