Looks good..hopefully Marshall and Koro will be fit to play..otherwise sironen and miller in the halves. I think they would have a good combination after playing together at Junior level perhaps?

gawd, just browsing through these team lists, we are definitely in for the wooden spoon. Bar Farah and Woods, the rest are there just to field a team. Geez I hope we have a big recruitment/cleanup after the season.

Bell being injured has given us real bench weakness.

Just on this will we have enough players to fill the NSW Cup side, if afew are required to play first grade?

Already a thread on this puppy.

EVERYONE WILL SAY NO BUT THE ONLY SOLUTION TOO THE 1/2 BACK SPOT IS robbie , we looked dangerous when he played wide of thr ruck against the broncos, He has a great kicking game and he will have to do less defence out wide, so he will be able to attack more. sirro will hit the line more with robbie at 1/2 back, and we will play a much wider game than up the middle.

GO FOR IT POTTER.

 

[Justo]

No.

You dont move your strongest positional player into another position.

 

[Tigerpete]

Robbie has failed at halfback on every occasion. For me though the key is that why on earth would you weaken a second position just to fill another position with a fill in. Keep your first choice hooker there and work around it.

 

[everett]

As long as that ex muppet hooker from Penrith is not in the 17\. Loose cannon

I think this is the logical team i would go with. Hmm but can it beat the dogs? Prob not :/

Given that Benji's return is week 9, we need to keep in mind the fact that this week's combination in the halves will only be for one week. Therefore a makeshift solution like Fulton at half, with he and Robbie sharing the dummy-half and first receiver roles, isn't a silly idea at all. At half, Liam could make his 35 tackles patrolling the edge of the ruck.

Whichever way Potter goes with the backs they are going to be a bunch of strangers with very little likelihood of combination. The Dogs have dangerous three-quarters, so it might be best to pick tacklers rather than runners in the centres.

1\. Tedesco
2\. Utai
3\. Reddy
4\. Thompson
5\. Koro
6\. Siro
7\. Fulton
8\. Woods
9\. Robbie
10\. Buchanan
11\. BMM
12\. Pettybourne
13\. Blair

14\. Ava
15\. Sue
16\. Akoula
17\. Groat

Dont think it'll happen, potter is down to earth and a half back will replace a half back in perfect conditions but i guess this is a pretty serious injury (halves) crisis so he might do it. But why not give brooks a taste for a game? or give miller another chance?

 

[Love_the_WestsTigers]

We need to have a halves combination that is lethal, not just a bunch of ball receivers and tacklers.
IMO there is no need to bring Fulton there, he wont bring a Halves flair or get line breaks there. Too predictable for the opposition as they know his style of footy. A real 5/8 - 1/2 posses a real threat.

Dont get me wrong, taking nothing away from Fulton but a real half here pls and i dont mean Farah either.
