Parra Trial

I think that regardless of what people say about it 'Just being a trial' they always try to win.

Im hoping Naiyavaro gets some time on there with the first graders, and also hoping Miller and marshall partner each other the whole time (1st or second half) and NOT mix it up. The less we do that the better and the more time they have together the better.

When are the teams being announced?
 
You'd think so AmHX. There isn't even a half-arsed cup on offer for this one. Could see the NRL team playing 2 quarters and the fringers playing the other 2 just to ease people in. I'd imagine we'll see a fair bit of chopping and changing especially with a new coach.
 
I think it depends on the player.
The top players tend to take it easy and just try to come through unscathed, they know their position is safe and just take it as an opportunity to test new plays and combos, etc.
Whereas guys on the fringe will try their guts out. Guys like Naiyaravoro will be out to impress.

Sometime this afternoon I suspect.
 
I hoping Naiyavaro gets a go against Parra and Easts as we need a real impact player off the bench and he certainly has the build to be our "T-rex"
 
Yeah Im calling him Big T from now on,,, Surname is an issue for me. I know Im spelling it wrong. I wont even try to pronounce it. Big T from now on.
 
sometime this season Rabs is going to say something like … "Well if Tony Williams is T-Rex, this guy must be T-Rex's twin brother" or something.

There was an announcement earlier on WT social network that members were going to receive the WT team list one whole hour earlier than the general public. The article got bagged out and has since been removed…..lol.
