Tigers team for the Sharkies

My guess is Austin to come on as straight swap for Anasta. If all is going well he will stay there with Anasta moving into the forward rotation if/when Blair needs a rest.

Surprised no 18th man named as i thought maybe there were fitness cloud over a few.

I thought Sitaleki struggled last week with extra minutes so not surprised he is replaced by Sue.

Good looking team and best side we can field with current injuries.

I'm okay with the team but probably would have preferred the 4 forwards on the bench tho. As long as Austin gets on the field at some stage I will be happy, hopefully it's when we are on the front foot.
Don't want to see the Sheens thing of leaving a back on the bench with no minutes.

So good to see the team getting back together!

hell yeah.

whilst I am hoping for a wests-tigers win, 😛ray: not going to expect it, :wink: because as we have seen over the years, expectation sometimes leads to bitter dis-appointment. :blush:
 
With Farah and Anasta back from injury it makes sense to keep Austin on the bench as he covers both of them plus a number of other areas.

Good side, can't wait to see our other players back and the team firing on all cylinders.
 
I've been loving the four forwards on the bench this year. However for this game I can understand Austin's selection on the bench. Hopefully when everyone is fit and firing we can go with four prop's on the bench.

Don't worry, he will come on at fullback :roll
 
Paterson should count himself lucky. Was pretty useless last week. Keen to see Siro have a crack on that left side soon
 
Had a hunch gavet may not be available.

Great team nonetheless.

Can't wait to see sue back in action. Ava, taupau and sue-3/4 of our OTT bench is back and Austin will give plenty of impact off the bench as well. He reminds me a lot of josh Reynolds without the dirtiness- plenty of mongrel though.

TIGERS WILL SMASH THOSE.

HOW GOOD DOES THIS TEAM LOOK?

seriously, the people who are injured would have a hard time getting in (besides teddy obviously). I couldn't see Sironen walking straight into the side with ease, Fulton would probably displace Paterson and Gavet would have to be fitted in somehwere (not sure who hed remove and im happy i dont have to make that decision…. ) and I dont think Halatau would crack it at all, he'd have to wait for some injuries which are bound to happen

I agree, he has a few really ordinary mistakes in him Patto. He has been saved by Aku having a few more errors himself and not quite the same fitness. Aku is by far the more explosive player, he needs to temper the rest of his game and find some consistency.

Siro Jr is a straight swap once fit.
