Want good news?

Wait for it…

Tim....

Tim Simona is all good to play the Rabbits, Just tweeted it. So only injury worry is Anasta.

I would be more worried if Anasta wasn't injured!! :laughing:
:roll

I would go with this. Try and out mussel them early and dominate.

Its a big occasion, I hope they dont clam up.

If they do they will be Shark bait.

Yep, then old habits will creep into our game and we'll start crabbing across the field.

There has been no crabbing across the field since Benji played for us.

A couple of players looked liked fish out of water and some of them were moving like barnacles by the end of the game

I'm sorry I had to do it :deadhorse:

or we could try to keep consistency in the team, especially our spine?

the teams with the least injuries tend to go the best. and thats cause they can build combinations and consistency over the 26 rounds. unnecesary changes are just that. unnecessary.

 

[happy_tiger]

Forget the Burgess brothers

The bloke we need to shut down will be Isaac Luke

 

[MightyTiger]

1\. Tedesco
2\. Nofo
3\. Simona
4\. Lawrence
5\. Richards
6\. Anasta
7\. Brooks
8\. Ava
9\. Halatau
10\. Galloway
11\. Patterson/Sirro (depending on sirro's concussion)
12\. Thompson
13\. Blair

14\. Tapau
15\. Sue
16\. Gavet
17\. Austin

Play Halatau as we will need his solid defence through the middle. Austin to rotate with Halatau to add that much needed spark from the bench.

 

[Aladinsane]

1\. James Tedesco
2\. Marika Koroibete …deserves the spot ..Nofa knees needs a rest
3\. Tim Simona
4\. Chris Lawrence
5\. Pat Richards

6.Blake Austin ..... Braith Anasta out (shoulder injury)
7\. Luke Brooks

8\. Marin Taupau
9\. Dene Halatau
10\. Keith Galloway....time to step up
11\. Jesse Sue
12\. Bodene Thomson
13.Adam Blair

14\. Joel Luani ( played very well in defence last 2 games)
15\. Sitaleki Akauola ( can cover centre if Simona goes down..combines well with Koro)
16\. James Gavet
17\. Curtis Sironen

 

[Tigertigertiger]

Anasta looks like he will miss about 14 weeks lol

this is so true.
he guides them all around the field, and is very tenacious.
get up and in his face, even with a bit of niggle, he won't be able to himself, and will look to get even during he game.

 

[laufoofan]

Nofo and Simo had been quiet lately. I remembered they used to take the balls up, broke tackles, made metres in the beginning of the year.Are they playing injured?.

 

[happy_tiger]

I actually thought Simona was pretty good yesterday his defence was really strong at times , Nofoaluma is definitely carrying an injury

2013 and no one would of caught him when he made that break

Really going to depend how everyone pulls up , a lot of blokes seemed to be hobbling or out cold

 

[magpiecol]

Assuming Simona and Fulton are out…Sirro & Anasta available...Woodsy and Farah SOO.

1- Tedesco
2- Korobeite
3 - Nofo
4 - Lawrence
5 - Richards
6 - Anasta
7 - Brooks
8 - Tapau
9 - Halatau
10 - Galloway
11 - Sirro
12 - Thompson
13 - Blair

14 - Sue
15 - Gavet
16 - Ava
17 - Austin

I would go with this. Try and out mussel them early and dominate.

if we can play as a team and avoid shellfish play, i think we can get the win

Me too. I'm tipping Taupau will have a whale of a game.

I like this team and I like the idea of starting Ava over Taupau…

 

[PYMBLEPETE]

Some of these references to Halatau's 'solid defence' indicate a shortness of memory. This was not his great strength when with us last. Sharp darts from dummy half are his go.

Yep fans used to rubbish about being dominated in defense. One on one defense was never his strength in the day.

[happy_tiger]

I think Potter will stick with Luani as he has built up some combinations with Brooks , Anasta and Austin

Halatau might be on the bench

 

[happy_tiger]

Forgot to add I wonder if Ava was dropped from the 17 to fire him up for this week
