Projecting the Wests Tigers Round 1 team

[phil1986]

I can't believe how many injuries we have. The most annoying thing is, as always, the return dates are pushed back week by week.

When Nofoaluma pulled out of the 9s the official wording was that he would be right for the trial. Here we are weeks later and he is still not right for round 1.

Is it that hard for the club to be initially honest with injury assessments? I'm no doctor and obviously I know things can change and recovery may be longer than expected in some cases, but this happens regularly with us.

I agree with your frustration mate…

The only injury I think that is hard to determine on time was nofos... Hamstrings are tricky and have no set time frames and there are different variations of severity...

For almost every other injury there really isn't an excuse.

Think this will be very close:

1-james tedesco
2-marika koreebete
3- Keith leilua
4- Chris Lawrence
5-pat Richards
6- braith anasta
7-Luke brooks
8-Aaron woods
9- Robbie farah
10-Martin taupau
11-Cory Patterson
12-Liam Fulton
13-Adam Blair

14-Blake Austin
15-james gavett
16-bodene Thompson
17- Ava seumangafi
18-bmm

I agree however think bodene will start, potter has been wrapping him all off season. Paterson/Fulton other second rower with the other on the bench.

I think the bench will be

14\. Austin
15\. Gavet
16\. Paterson/Fulton
17\. BMM
18\. Sue
19\. Buchanan

I'm hoping with Fulton back we don't have Austin on the bench, seems a waste to me. I know everyone on here prefers BMM/Ava/sue to Buchanan but potter loves him. I think he'll be there and drop back for Galloway next week. Gavet seems to have the jump on the others for a bench spot.

I did forget about sue… He will def be there

I agree on sue, they made a big deal about him in the injury report so assuming that means he is playing. With Austin confirmed nsw cup I'm guessing the bench:

14\. Paterson /Fulton
15\. Sue
16\. Gavet
17\. BMM/Buchanan/Ava
