Missed anyone?
This forward pack would smash our current pack.

There would be a field goal in it! Its like asking which one of your kids do you love more!

 

[Kavi]

Just run over the top of richards as he has a knee injury and fifita will get sent off…
Im sure we would beat them

 

[Bird is the Word]

They would lose…

Lot of x factor blokes in that team without much substance. There are a couple that may get a run in the Tigers starting side, but not too many...

Don't think the Tigers recruitment has been a negative lately assuming that we don't have much cash. Seem to be signing good players without spending too much...

As soft as our current forward pack can be, you have to remember we had a soft pack WITH those guy in it aswell. We also had terrible defensive reads in the outside backs with those backs in the our team.

In a hypothetical match up. imo it ends in a draw. i scrappy, ugly draw with a million blown chances on both sides of the ball

Laugh. Good coach that one.

Far to many selfish and individual players in that 13… Our current team plays more as a unit

Absolutely TW - they would start a fight over who should score.

Don't think we needed to keep any of them - let alone a hypothetical game.

Hypothetical result - we win.

Fifita is a niggling grub

Austin was a loss

Tapau has done nothing since joining Manly

Thompson was a loss, has done great at the Warriors

Korro was a huge loss so is JAC, still got me why no one was sacked other that debacle

That sounds a bit Fishy :laughing:

 

[goldcoast_tiger]

I'd back Hoddos side. The forwards are better than what we have now.
Centres would be the only worry , but we've got problems which those in our current team.
The halves at their best would give our two a lesson
Giving Teddy as much ball as possible would be our only chance

Their starting pack is a bit better, although we don't compare too badly to them.

**Woods** > blair, Fifita > **Grant**, **Sue** > Thompson, Taupau > **Lawrence**, **ET** > heighington.

and their bench sucks pretty badly. ava, lovett, JJ felise and aloiai is a lot better.

but that backline is absolute TRASH.

Mitch brown vs tedesco - now thats a battle and a half

pat richards and ayshford versus naiqama and simona. Naiqama would run rings around patty, and even kevin could contain patty

then mitchel moses and brooks (full fit) would destroy marshall and austin (a.k.a. dummy and go). those halves would play hot potato with the ball because neither can kick

wingers are better than ours though.

we would win comfortably

Maybe the reason that we get walked over so often is because we don't have a niggling Grub
We , most times , have no one who could scare a cat.

 

[Harvey]

Ayshford, worlds greatest centre

 

[steve-o]

That team is worse than what we have now.
Blair sucks. Fifita is a grub - happy not to have him here.
2nd row is good.
Heighington is good when he's not surrounded by other small forwards
Marshall stinks
Austin's good
Those centres are rubbish
The wingers are both the biggest losses in my opinion. Potter's biggest recruitment/retention failure. Taylor also failed by not locking up JAC.
Mitch brown was dependable, but only ever middle-of-the-road
