Junior Moors... BOOMMMMM!

good for the Mins he was on the field. Really growing in confidence it seems.

I just want hime to realise the God given size he has and then use it for evil… I would like him to intimidate a bit more. All in all an impoving Pack.

Well done Todd Payten also
 
I think he has played well all year. He made way for someone earlier in the year when he was playing very well. Must stay on the bench.

Dwyer and Moors have been fantastic.

Surely neither can be dropped?

Does beg the question, doesn't it? When Galloway and Fulton are back…?

The only option I can see is dropping Flanagan for Fulton and pushing Payten back to the bench, dropping the backline benchie.
 
I know when Fulton and Galloway come back there's going to be disgruntled players and some red hot angry fans. one thing is for sure is that the there is no room for Fitzy now.

Not that there ever was,the back on the bench has to go when KG returns.
 
Well Jamal learnt something tonight, its easy to smash blokes smaller than you – but players of equal size.. not so much.

Junior is coming along slowly but I think he's growing in confidence and Sheens is letting him run a little wider on occasion too.

You're right but the problem is what do you do when Fulton comes back?
 
I thought he was up there for our best tonight really went hard into the line, showed great leg drive and was a handful on the edges. I heard that hit from the otherside of the stadium it was that big!!

Does beg the question, when KG comes back, will he have to be sacrificed?

8 Gibbs
9 Farah
10 Galloway
11 Fulton/Flanagan
12 Ellis
13 Heighno

14 Fifta/Moors/Payten
15 Fifita/Moors/Payten
16 Dwyer/ Flanagan/ Fulton
17 who knows?
 
I thought Moors started to show some form in the game against Penrith, where he took the ball forward all night. His game tonight was very good and Tim cannot afford to leave him out of the team at the moment.
 
I had this discussion with a fellow Tigers supporter at work and I said he simply needed match fitness. He suffered from a nasty ankle injury and as we've seen with TNT, they're a horror to recover from so god knows what effect it has on a players confidence. He's a big boy with a lot to offer and from what I saw last night, he could look the goods if he maintains form.
 
very difficult decision ahead

8 Gibbs
9 Farah
10 Galloway
11 Fulton
12 Ellis
13 Heighno

Which leaves
Fifita
Moors
Payten
Dwyer
Flanagan

At this stage, no one deserves to be dropped. Fifita I think is a given, so that's 4 players for 3 bench spots (hoping that the winger/fullback won't be there)…... after that I don't know. I suppose if we were to think of the future, you'd think about dropping Payten, but then how long is Flanagan going to stay in Aus?
 
He looked the goods last night. I think after that performance he has to stay.

Our pack is looking the best it has been for years.

Possible props - either starting or on the bench.
Fifita - gun.
Moors - turning into a gun.
Gibbs- solid worker and real good defensively.
Galloway - gun.
Payten - when playing at his best is a top defender, can ball play and has even shown some good leg drive.

Backrowers
Ellis - I think atm he is the best 2nd rower / lock in the comp.
Heighno - not far behind Ellis.
Dwyer - not there yet but I'd be keeping him in the team.

I think I would run with the above players on the bench and or starting. No backs on the bench.

That leaves players like Fulton and Flanagan with no bench spot. I also think Jason Schrinack should be pushing his way into contention if he isn't injured soon.
 
Both Dwyer and Flanagan are capable of playing in the backline so that negates the need for a specialist back on the bench, Simon was a centre in the NYC until mid 2009 while Mark came to the club as a ulitily player.
It's great to see that we now have some size in our ranks and with Galloway, Ayshford and Fulton coming back along with Fitzy the selectors will be working overtime to fit all these into the 17, who do you drop to make way for them?.
 
He's going well. It looks like since Dwyer has come into first grade, Moors has had some time playing in the backrow, while Dwyer is in the front row.
 
Ideally, we're looking at:

8\. Gibbs
10\. Galloway
11\. Fulton
12\. Ellis
13\. Heighno

14\. Fifita
15\. Moors
16\. Dwyer
17\. Payten

It's harsh to drop Flanagan, but I honestly don't think he's a better option than Fulton/Dwyer/Payten in the 2nd row.
