TEAM LIST Round 15 vs. Titans

Team List
10+ injuries and a few suspensions...

Personally i think we need to be aiming higher than Moussa, we seem to get lots of injuries when he's looking after our boys.
He’s been with us before and he didn’t do anything special, I was surprised not only when we got him back but also there were positive posts about his reappointment. Personally this is part of football that takes no on-field talent, and it’s these areas we need to be winning at. We should have the best injury mechanic in the biz.

Yet another injury plagued year?
Poppy BF use to say the harder you run the less you get injured.
When I asked what happens when two players go at it at their very hardest? His answer was no one gets injured.
Now that’s a fairly basic approach but if you’re going at it full on then your whole body and mind are ready for collision, where as if you’re going at 90% then 10% is relaxed or lazy and that’s when injury can occur. Also if you’re going at 100% then you’re not having to use chicken wings or hip drops to be as effective.
Anyway he would say “If they ran harder and tackled harder they wouldn’t have so many injuries”. 🤷‍♂️
I reckon we should try it out for a change.
 
Benji needs to tell the boys about the Baby Broncos win against us in 2002, they debuted 7 players that night!

This is an excerpt from an article: No one gave the young Broncos, the most inexperienced line-up the club had ever fielded with two 17-year-olds, two 18-year-olds and two 19-year-olds in the side, any hope of beating Terry Lamb’s Tigers.
The forgot the Lamb factor - what a turd.

More accurately, no one (excluding fans of the club who even by 2002 were used to that kind of crap) gave them a chance...
 
Heading out to the game tomorrow. Have this gut feeling I haven't had in weeks that we're gonna win for some reason especially if it's raining tomorrow which will help as the Titans are a very fast side. Hopefully the boys get up would be massive especially with all the media circus this week.

  • Wests Tigers have not defeated the Titans at Leichhardt Oval since 2008.
 
Wests Tigers have trimmed their squad to 19 players ahead of Saturday's Round 15 match against the Titans at Leichhardt Oval.

Alex Twal and Alex Lobb have both been omitted from the squad after suffering head knocks at training on Wednesday.

Their absence opens the door for another two players to make their NRL debut, taking Wests Tigers tally to nine debutants so far this season.

Solomona Faataape has been elevated from the bench to the centres pushing Brent Naden to the wing in place of Lobb, with Mason to be used in a utility role off the bench.

Fonua Pole moves into the front row replacing Twal with Alex Seyfarth shifting to the second row and Miller added to the bench.

Incoming ... Laulilii brothers!!!
