TEAM LIST Round 21 Vs Raiders

[lathami]

Nice to see Tupou get a run. he did some good stuff in reserves.

Really, what about solo, what does this say to him?? All the work this season for solo and this is his reward!! Hands like feet gets the gig after what 2 weeks?!?
This is why bunji has lost it, if I was solo I’d get the hell out!

In all honestly if we get beaten by the Raiders will Benji put his hand and say i got it wrong??

Benji has never been wrong ....just ask him

Your boy Tupou back in the NRL …

Should be one to watch I’m predicting

Interesting to see the forum response if he shows something. We don't have too many athletes out wide in that build.

Have has very narrow viewed team ideas. Time for Benji or owners to walk.

 

[lathami]

I think that’s his position for the rest of the year . 19th man never to play another game.
Masi needs to go have surgery , and be done with it .

Rather he played In reges to get his confidence back.

Good to see Tupuo, Andrews and Roberts given a go. Hopefully that means Sione stays in our middle rotation.

Not sure what Saukuru has to do to get a gig. Shame to see Maka in reserves too. I thought he was gradually improving each week. Hopefully Herbert has an “on” game this weekend.

We’ll need aggressive line speed all game to be in this one. I hope the boys are pumped!

 

[Tired Tiger]

Fingers crossed AD gets suspended 🤞🤞🤞

 

[Tom Shines]

Saukuru has got Manly written all over him for 2027 …

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Probably not the ideal game for Andrews to debut. Raiders are starting to make a charge, so they will be switched on.

Hope not

You have a guy killing it at centre in reserves, yet Benji picks the forklift operator who hasn't played in 8 weeks and a winger out-of-position. I don't care if Saukuru is leaving at the end of the year, our season is dead. Saukuru should be rewarded for his hard work in reserves with a first grade debut. Benji has NFI.

where is Saukuru going at the end of the year?

Benji seem to have a love affair for this Herbert bloke...he was driving forklifts for a reason

Long night coming for the Tigers

Benji .....Patty......Johnny Cronk ....with Hodgson and Heighington as video ref's and we'd still lose by 30

 

[Lukic]

Not good

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Why did To'a get the chop?

Letting In The first 3 tries perhaps 🤔

 

[Tigerstigerstigers]

Where’s Maka he was coming good

 

[Lestronge]

Rather he played In reges to get his confidence back.

Who ?

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Like the move of Roberts starting and Sione back to the bench. More punch and balance especially with how bad May is playing.

As to backline points will be scored against them regardless as cohesive side of things will be stuffed

Turuva as a center is rubbish he is a winger

Andrews making his debut sure is exciting but could’ve waited a week, v Raiders is massive test especially with the volume of backline changes all around him. Poor kid could get carved up.

 

[derekderekson]

Dramatic changes to our backs
Not a bad idea
Junior Tupou ( scored a double for our cup side and has speed )
Turuva - Back to center ( he's a better winger )
Herbert back ( better than Makasini )
Jason Andrews at No 7 ( he's a genuine halfback) but can he cope at NRL level
Tavana back ( very good in attack ) but must catch defensive bombs )
Note Douehi and Latu in reserves in case success at judiciary
All in All why not ? Nothing to lose .Our attack last few weeks pitiful

I wouldn’t call Javon a genuine halfback as he more a running 5/8
