Geez nof is back early it was round 10-13 originally I think. And luani at 6? :/ at least Cherrington gets starting hooker
 
I didn't know McDonald was leaving for Superleague again. I must have missed that one.

Great to hear Nofo is back.
 
Interesting looking lineup. Luani at 6 is an interesting move but Cherrington is certainly far more capable at 9.

Apart from no Santi , that is the best balanced side I've seen us pick in NSW Cup

Good luck guys , keep pushing the NRL boys to bigger and better performances :sign:
 
I'll try again as my other thread was a failure.

IS ANYONE GOING TO THIS GAME?
 
Strange that there was no official announcement that McDonnell had returned to the Super League, apparently St Helens need a player to replace the Kiwi that got belted by a Flower in last years's GF, that player Lance Hohaia I think it is, has retired following continued headaches from that incident.

Wests Tigers can also confirm that the Club has granted Shannon McDonnell an immediate release from his second-tier contract.
>
McDonnell has been playing with the NSW Cup side and has been offered an opportunity to return to the Super League for the remainder of 2015.

It was at the bottom of Simona's re-signing announcement..
