Interesting.

Please explain . . . . .

Don't really know the credentials of Davis and Pritchard and I think Fulton is solid defensively and is good enough to see opportunites for the man outside him. Daniella or Fitzhenry don't filll me with alot of confidence and when Beau is making over 200 metres from fullback I wouldn't be moving him. Straight swap in my opinion and I think Fulton could handle it but am happy to give Davis a crack if all the Maggies fans think he is up to it

Id like to see minimal changes to that right side. Its been average all year defensively with so much movement.

Pick a single replacement like Daniela, Davis or Tuamata (by switching Lawrence there).

The smokey I'd like to see there is Jason Schirnack. Love to see how Tonga goes with Jason smashing him under his Ribs…
 
geez some people need their head examined. Why change Brown for unproven Pritchard. Geeeeeez! Brown was good on Sunday! People also state speed of Pritchard…...Brown absolutely cruised up behnd Ryan in the final try. Should great toe to set up the Farah try as well. Anyone trying to replace him is kidding themselves. I was never a fan of his when we bought him and was never a fan of him taking Ryans place but boy oh boy he has earnt his spot until his form fades....if it ever does!!!
 
It wll be a straight swap with Fitzy or Daniella. Blake didn't have his best game last week anyway - missed a few tackles and gave a few penalties away. Either of these two players will cause minimal disruption to the team formation in the coaches mind I think.

According to the Telegraph, Brown to centre and Fitzhenry to the wing. No word on the bench as yet.

Geez I hope we have a plan to stop Tonga cause he has been probably the best for NQLD this season.
At least Moltzen will stay at 1/2 which i was worried he would be moved to the centres
 
This Will Be It…

Fitzy on the wing, madness, cast your mind back to 2005 when Sing made him look like a Zgrader and he is now 10seconds slower. Their are better options
 
The only game Fitzhenry has played as a starter we got belted and a good five tries were run in down his side.

Will never, ever understand Sheens' Fitzhenry fixation.
 
If fitzy is on the wing will we see Dynamite daniella return to the bench? This could be an amusing game

I would name the same side but have Daniella in Ayshfords spot my reason being we bought this guy for depth he hasn't really had any decent game time, lets see what he's got. He has NRL experience lets give him a chance to prove he is NRL standard and if he's not then look at other options.
I just think he's being written off too early by most people and i'd like to see him given 80min against decent opposition to test himself against, sometimes it takes a big challenge to bring out the best in somebody.
 
i think the best thing to do at this time would be to play either fulton or flannagan in ayshfords spot, they are both great defenders and have acceptable speed for a centre.
 
Some of you blokes amaze me with your theories. You state you do not want to play State Cup players with no first grade experience yet you plug for blokes that have played first grade and are not up to it or Under 20 players are out of their depth. I would prefer to give players like Akeripa , Davis and Pritchard a go before some of those in the squad. They will not let the team down!

C'mon Hybrid, it's easy:

"Fitzhenry is a very experienced player and will assist in providing leadership to the younger players in the Wests Tigers squad."

But seriously, Fitzy on the wing is not the answer. Run with a defensive player who can handle centre. There are options…Flanagan, Davis, Pritchard...It would be nice to see one of these 3 named in the centres but I'm not holding my breath.

Thats the side I like Chris. Alternatively, I would have David or Pritchard in the centres and Moltzen back at 7\. I really want to find a way to bring Lazo into the side as I think we could explode with an organising half and he sounds like a genuine talent.
