Sorry if theres already a Topic on this… but i havnt spotted one.
What is your backline after Tui comes back ?...
Mine looks like this...

1\. Beau Ryan
2\. Lote Tuqiri
3\. Blake Ayshford
4\. Chris Lawrence
5\. Tuiaki :slight_smile:
6\. Benji Marshall
7\. Tim Moltzen
 
I don't think you could have anything else unless Ayshford shifted into the pack and Lazarus or Taumata pushed for the fullback spot with Ryan moving to the centres
 
it really depends how we are going when and if he comes back. Personally i don;t think we will see him for quite a while.

If we are still travelling well I would like to see just as you have posted as he needs to play and you can;t drop Ryan if continues his good form.
 
The above picks itself. I should note that we shouldnt get carried away. You never know what will happen in terms of other injuries by the time Tui returns.

When he is fit that's the backline I think we will see, and it's certainly one to be feared by other teams.
 
Why is it that everyone keeps thinking Tuiaki isn't going to be seen this year, is this based on actual info from the club or just guessing?

My post should not have been seen as indicating that. My point is that injuries constantly happen in professional football and its not a given that you will always have your best team on the park.
 
that 1-7 is the best, but sheens lui love worries me. once he is fit and we lose a game, i fear he will use it as an excuse to shift moltz back to 1 and lui to 7, what that means when tui is fit i do not know

I would have Tui at halfback! Can you imagine…..No forward will want to tackle him after a downfield kick.
 
I agree with that line up. And if Ryan ever gets injured, Lazarus in at 1 for mine. Lui has to miss out while Moltz and Bunji are consistently guiding the team to wins.

Yeah…Marshall, Moltzen, Ryan, Lawrence and Ayshford could all do with a good stint in State Cup to lift their overall game. Especially Marshall. It's good we have someone like Fitzhenry to put pressure on him and keep him honest. He has really impressed me in the 8 minutes of first grade he has played this year.
 
when TNT is able to play, would have him play off the bench for a couple of games, so he can re-gain confidence and fitness.
a time is coming, hopefully this season when wests-tigers backline will be the most devasting in attack and fortress like in defence.
 
Well, we'll see how Beau goes after a couple more games at the fullback spot, but at the moment, that's a decent backline
 
1\. Beau Ryan
2\. Taniela Tuiaki
3\. Blake Ayshford
4\. Chris Lawrence
5\. Lote Tuqiri
6\. Benji Marshall
7\. Tim Moltzen

The above back-line picks itself. It seems our strongest but injuries and form will probably strike.
