Team next week

If Dwyer doesn't start he should at least come on a lot earlier. He was wasted last night, too long to leave an impact player out of the action.
 
1\. McKinnon
2\. Tuqiri
3\. Daniela
4\. Lawrence
5\. Ryan
6\. Marshall
7\. Finch/Lui
8\. Gibbs
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Payten
12\. Ellis
13\. Heighington

14\. Ayshford
15\. Fifita
16\. Moors
17\. Dwyer
 
Andrew Fifita was in a boot at the BRET game today.
He said that he'll be back for the next game
 
1\. Mckinnon
2\. Tuqiri
3\. Ayshford
4\. Lawrence
5\. Ryan
6\. Marshall
7\. Finch
8\. Gibbs
9\. Farah
10\. Payten
11\. Fulton
12\. Ellis
13\. Heighington

14\. Galloway
15\. Fifita
16\. Dywer
17\. Fitzhenry

–-

Fulton if fit is a shoe in, his defensive efforts dont go un-noticed
Fifita if fit will bring some grunt back into the squad

Dropping of flannagan and daniela may seem harsh but this is a stronger looking squad with the likes of ayshford and fulton.

If the rumours of finch turn out to be pixy dust i would be pushing for fitzhenry for halfback with daniella coming on to the bench

Plenty of size in that squad CT, good impact off the bench. The centre pairing is an interesting call, is Ellis quick enough to handle it, particularly if someone gets on the outside of him?

You know, its not hard to select a team we all know will never be picked, shuffle some positions and bring up a few reggie players, then use some literary reasoning to explain the selections….it may look clever to the uneducated but without the opportunity to be ever scrutinised, it remains just words...fluff, wind in cyberspace -nothing more.
 
If Dwyer keeps going in the direction he is, how about we use him like Henjack is using Gillett & Teo for 80min, alternating between Centre & Backrow?

Dwyer was a centre in the juniors too, he might be able to do a job there, but i just can't see Sheens selecting him there.
 
McKinnon
Lote
Ayshford
Lawrence
Ryan
Marshall
Lui
Hieghno
Ellis
Payten
Gibbs
Farah
Galloway

Fulton
Moors or Fifita - although I'd probably give Fifita one more week a young bloke coming back in FG dont rush him
Dwyer - then between him and Moors once Fififta is fit
Fitzhenry

Exact team I would have.. however didnt like your idea abou Fitzhenry possibly playing halfback.
 
If players are out for origin this is my team (farah, Heighno, Lawrence and Galloway)

1.McKinnon
2.Lote
3.Ayshford
4.Daniella
5.Ryan

6.Marshall
7.Lui

8.Gibbs
9.Fitzhenry
10.Payten
11.Ellis
12.Dwyer
13.Flannigan

14.Fulton
15.Moors
16.Fifita
17.Toupo
 
Have to bite the bullet with Flannigan unfortunatly as I have been impressed but Fulton/Dwyer/Fifita/Moors and hopefully Toupo just give us a bit more and the problem with Fitzhenry having to be in the team weekly doesn,t help ,selections will be interesting over the coming weeks especialy if Toupo comes good..
 
Full strength Dwyer and probably Flanno drop out of the team (unless somehow we keep Flanno as the utility)

dont see flanno hanging around when fulton comes back. unless there is another injury in the squad i dont see sheens dropping fitzy
 
Like the idea of Dwyer at centre and Ashyford in State Cup. Bench Moors, Fifita and Payten. Fulton to start in second row. Flanagan to State CUp unless Rhino is picked for SOO 3\. If we don't get Finch then we should promote a half from State Cup who knows how to play the position.

Dwyer does not have the lateral movement or pace to play centre!

seems to go alright to me
 
He has lost pace since the gain in muscle mass.

Simple fact is if you wanted to convert a back rower to centre Mataka is the best option. He is the second quickest at the club, makes smart defensive reads and runs good lines with good footwork. Akeripa would also be an option miles in front of a Dwyer shift
 
Our players won't get picked for origin.So i hope our boys step up a notch & show selectors how badly they stuffed up.
I would go with this side.

1.McKinnon (was a breath of fresh air on frinight)
2.Tuqiri
3.Lawernce (took it to another level on friday.If he keeps that up he just might get a test jumper)
4.Daniela
5.Ryan
6.Marshall
7.Lui (Finch aint coming & someone on hear said that lui looked fine at the BRET game)
8.Gibbs
9.Farah (should be blues hooker but lucky he will stay with us.2011 NSW hooker)
10.Galloway (If stayed injury free he would have been in origin)
11.Ellis
12.Fulton (due back this round)
13.Heighnington (He will get a test jumper at seasons end.One player that can feel hard done by not getting a rep jersey)

14.Ayshford (utility)
15.Moors
16.Dwyer
17.Payton (Has been great for us the last couple of weeks but i would like to see him & Moors as the prop rotation)
 
i'd be having galloway come off the bench, he was so slow in the dragons game, i hope his fitness is getting back to what it was earlier, he looks prone to be giving some penalties if he wont get off the player!!!!!

prove me wrong big red!!! :slight_smile:
