Realistic team list round 1 2018

I don’t think he is allowed to name them out of a number order unless you mean something like this
1\. Alex Twal.
2\. Ben Matolino
3\. Benji Marshall.
4\. Chris Lawernce
5\. Chris McQueen
6\. Corey Thomson
7\. Elijah Taylor

????
 
I can see our forwards having a great year
They all look in great shape
With the exception of Matalino's knee not being 100%
Images of Twal Eisenhuth and Aloiai all look much more solid this year and will be hungry
Add Packer with his size Grant Sue McQueen Taylor and Lawrence
To me that looks like a great mix in the forwards

Don't think Fonua will get a run in the NRL for awhile - wouldn't think Cleary would be too impressed with that effort.

I'm of the opinion anyway that he should get a stint in reggies - maybe learn to keep his gob shut!!!!

I'd like to see the next trial before picking a team - a few haven't had a run yet.
 
Fonua didn't do himself any favours tonight. Couple of guys have leaped him in the pecking order if this trial is anything to go by.

Thought Corey Thompson was really good, so on form he might get the spot. Don't think Cleary will worry about Fonua being sent off for back-chatting again. That was a one-off.
 
We have a lot of depth this year it’s clear to see when Cowboys has Scott and Thurston off we were a class above. Our second unit is very good and I wouldn’t be surprised if we win NSW Cup.

My lineup is 1\. Tui 2\. MWZ 3\. Marsters 4\. Milne 5\. Nofa 6\. Reynolds 7\. Brooks 8\. Packer 9\. Liddle 10\. Matulino 11\. Lawrence 12\. ET 13\. Eiso 14\. Twal 15\. Aloai 16\. McQueen 17\. Sue 18\. Marshall
 
1\. Lolohea 2\. Nofoaluma 3\. Marsters 4\. Milne 5\. MWZ 6\. Reynolds 7\. Brooks 8\. Packer 9\. Taylor 10\. Twal 11\. McQueen 12\. Aloiai 13\. Eisenhuth 14\. Matulino 15\. Felise 16\. Lawrence 17\. McIlwrick
 
Ivan is going to have some good headaches with picking teams, its going to be hard to keep Corey Thompson out of the 17 after tonight's display.
 
Early days but on tonight’s form and expected form from players missing:
LoLo
MWZ (Thompson close 2nd)
Milne
Marsters
Reynolds (liked Gamble but too early)
Brooks (concentration & kicking game still needs work) ….. Marshall on his heels
Packer (Grant to Shadow)
Taylor (Liddle when he fully recovers)
Matulino
Lawrence
McQueen
Hoot

Grant, Twal, Aloiai, Felise ...... lot will depend on next trial. Cronulla will be a good test

2 Thompson/W-Z
3 Milne
4 Marsters
5 Nofoaluma

You picked a team with only one winger.

Personally, I'd like to see JJ in the game-day 17\. I know it was only a trial, but I thought he was the best froward on the ground in the first half.

Ive been saying that the 2-5 is going to be what we saw at the back end of last year and tonight only confirmed that for me.

I agree. Kev went well I thought. Expect him to be there.

I would be tempted to go with Thompson over MWZ. Impressed with every touch.

NZ prop Packer off the bench and Grant starting? Can't see it.

Can't see Lawrence keeping McQueen out of the starting side.

He did go well, just wish he had a little more height to help under the high ball. An area where he was not tested.
 
1\. Lolo
2\. Nofa
3\. Masters
4\. Milne/Kev
5\. MWZ
6\. Reynolds
7\. Brooks
8\. Matulino
9\. ET
10\. Packer
11\. Lawrence
12\. Rochow
13\. Eisenhuth

14\. Aloiai
15\. Twal
16\. McQueen
17\. McIllwrick

18\. Benji
19\. Thompson
20\. Grant
21\. Felise

If McQueen doesn't play in the next trial, he will need to come back via ISP.
 
Gee Gamble looked good in the trial.
And Masters has and always was better than Suli.
