Is Utai Playing?

I was hearing chris lawrence on fox sports news he said next week matt utai beau ryan on the wing his still gud but lote is bak :smiley::D
 
Some might not agree but I'd prefer Beau Ryan than Utai. Utai is good for a dummy half scoot but Ryan is much safer under the highball IMO. Pearce and Carney can sky a couple and Kenny-Dowell, Perret etc are all good at scoring tries from kicks.

Utai is good for a dummy half scoot? Give the guy some credit, he is a machine and makes more metres than our forwards!

Ryan definitely better under the high ball, but I have found that Utai was rarely contesting the high ball anyway, someone more capable generally dropped back to field the attacking kicks.
 
Utai was NAMED when the team was first released, but a followup notification was sent out a few minutes later saying that this was an error and it was meant to say Ryan. This is 100% true and not a ploy.

Since all the teams are using the new Telstra/Sportal website templates, the NRL has asked all clubs to upload their teams to their website first. Off that everything like Big League, Fox Sports, etc. can connect to the central database and get their data. Matty Utai's naming on Tuesday was simply a mistake caused by clicking the wrong button in the upload process.
 
I think the selectors are all confused because they seem to have Mackinnon & Moltz available as well as 4 wingers
