Team For Next Week....

nathan waters return to 1st grade at halfback?

That or Nichols. That would be the SMARTEST thing to do. Replace a specialist with a specialist. But it's proving to be harder than rocket science for Coach Sheens. Either player would allow Marshall to play wide, would allow our best attacking strike weapon to return to the left edge. Team cohesion and dynamics restored. But chances of that happening…. :unamused:

i didnt mind nathans debut performance, he had confidence to kick in his first FG game which is always a plus.

Wont happen though. Sheensy said in the presso the reason he shifted Lawrie to the halves was because he wasn't satisfied with the performances put in by any of our lower grade halves.

While its highly unlikely, if Lui is fit, I'd send Benji back to BRET and keep Rowdy in the 6.

Something has to be done to get Benji to realise he is playing DUMB??!!!

Nichols is worth a shot after another good game today if Lui isn't fit. He can tackle too which is another plus.

I believe Benji would play for Wests…....

Yeh great post..
Because Larence is a much better 5/8 then Benji..

When Lui is back for a couple of weeks I think Benji will get back to his brilliant best again as it usually does when hes playing with a geuine halfback.

Lets hope your right brother…

(i rarely bash players, but I was lost for words after Friday as to what he was 'thinking', more so than what he was 'doing'...)

A couple of weeks I can live with!!!

Benji has not been at his 'brilliant best' for many weeks now - with or without Lui in the side.

Not saying he should be dropped, but just pointing out he has been underperforming for quite some time now.

Dont let facts get in the way Centaur…..confuses things....

Benji played better against the Broncos than he did against the Raiders with Lui in the team....

As for being dropped.....never happen.....

Does anyone know if Lui and Ryan are back this week?

I pretty much agree with this team - except I would play Daniela in the centres and Ayshford on the wing. He seemed to do a decent job on the wing last year in the game when Tuiaki got injured.

Daniela withdrew from the NSW team because of injury, not sure if he is available. There is also big doubts about Farah being fit. Ellis not playing, no half back, Fifita out of favour with Sheens (and rightly so). Not good.

 

[innsaneink]

If Ellis is out with his groin like we suspect, and a fit Fifita isnt selected ….
I cant believe that would happen, hope not...

Daniella should be fine.

Pulled up a little lame after a hard slog in the wet at Suncorp. As it is a short camp for the Residents side it was too much to ask to have any player who could not complete all training sessions
