TEAM LIST Preseason Challenge v Eels

[hank37w]

We're still trying to understand how a chair works...

We've certainly had big issues with the bench in the past. 🤣

Funny how all the talk is not taking any notice of trials until the teams are picked and the depth players are given an opportunity to show their worth

 

[GNR4LIFE]

You'll be eating those words when he smashes the opposition in defense and runs elite lines earning himself the man of the match award.

Aww man, will I? Damn

That’s how trials have been treated since the beginning of time

It will be hilarious come round one when our first grade team get on the paddock staring at each other like they are strangers because all they have done for the whole off season is play touch footy against Benji !!!

not our first choice team but a really good chance for a few boys to put their hand up.
Really keen to see skeleton and naden go around. Forwards look interesting as well.

I thikn twal at 13 is so birds body doesnt have to do the first 20mins

Wibble

Don't understand Doueihi at 7.

 

[hank37w]

... and Luke L

Any truth to the rumour that he he is out for weeks (possibly 12) due to a concussion at training.

 

[Tim Sheens]

Great Squadie, Will keep the starters honest and work hard, Kinda kid that would be signed 2 years at a time at any other club.
We're in trouble if we have him starting 20 games a year this season.

I said basically that last preseason, but added the hope of being proved wrong. Sadly he didn't, though again hope that he does so this year.

 

[Buttface]

Aww man, will I? Damn

Don’t worry baby giraffes are really tasty.

 

[Halbrowne61]

Let’s go Big Red as captain!!!!!!!!

That was obviously part of his re-signing deal this week. 🤣
As always, things are never as they seem at the Tigers. I would have thought L. Fainu could have got another starting gig to prove his mediocre effort last Sunday was just an aberration, with AD on the bench to cover a few positions, especially when Star comes off injured and Naden gets sin binned ! Who knows, there might be a reshuffle before Friday.

 

[hammertime]

That is a really weird team list

 

[Tim Sheens]

Maybe the plan RHS is for Twal to play the 1st 20 or so as a 3rd prop and lock down the middle defensively & then the Bird is unleashed once defences are a bit tired. Then Twal goes into prop rotation.

My thoughts exactly.

Any one know what’s going on with Will areKLEMMER , I heard he will not play for us again .
If this is true what the hell is going on we are very short of forwards with experience and we are letting him leave , I think we will struggle again this year , can’t see so making the 8 , will fight it out for wooden spoon, not sure what the hell Richo is doing , I think bugger all

 

[Halbrowne61]

That is a really weird team list

Have to agree H but it begs the question, who’s injured and who’s not.
No Bula, Olam, Turuva, Luai, Klemmer, etc.

 

[Halbrowne61]

My thoughts exactly.

I’d have to say Eels 13+ for sure. They hit the ground running last week and we seem all over the place , as usual.

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Is the Peter Moussa Thursday update on the club website or social media?

Last season it was just sent to members on a Thursday but irregularly.

It will be hilarious come round one when our first grade team get on the paddock staring at each other like they are strangers because all they have done for the whole off season is play touch footy against Benji !!!

…and get beaten by him.
