Tim has got to roll the dice.........

[cnx_tigers]

I've been confident about this game all week. I posted here on Monday we'd win 14 +

However, with the injuries….............I don't know.

The word I've heard is we will line up with

Brown for McKinnon
Daniela for Chris
Fitzy to the bench
Keith maybe out.......probably the young pom to replace him.

I.e. the same old "conservative" options Sheens always takes.

Last week we saw a young winger given a chance and he was dead set our best back in the game. Why wasn't he given a chance all season? There's other blokes who may offer more than Brown / Fitz / Flanagan. Maybe they'll freeze up, maybe they'll do really well........but now is not the time to be conservative.

If we do line up with Brown / Daniela / Fitz and Flanagan as the reserve forward (forcing Dwyer to be the back up PROP again), I reckon we'll get beaten badly.

Time to roll the dice fellas. This is no time to be conservative and stick with the "favourites". Five years goes on the line tomorrow. A leopard never changes its spots etc etc etc.........but now **is** the time to change things if McKinnon, Chris and Galloway are out.

Tim's keeping the cards up his sleeve. He's yet to take the biggest risk of them all and play 4 forwards on the bench…. 🙄

I doubt he will do anything that we dont already expect .. The shock was when Latu was picked .. The was the only suprise we have had all year , everything else .. predictable ….

 

[cnx_tigers]

Yeah, and Latu played better than Fitzy has all year.

Facts are facts and those are that Tim has a 'select group' of guys he 'trusts' and he hates going away from it.

He also has his 'set plan' to always roll with the same bench structure. Tomorrow those things won't work. He needs to put in some fresh legs or go with a four forward / two prop bench.

I guess at the end of the day Sheens doesnt help the pack by not picking the best and getting the boys a bit bashed around but this is where the 17 should stand tall , united and put in a 100% effort for the full 80 mins and or/if any extra time and play for each other .. The mentality will win the game more than anything else ..

Maybe they should play the song from Spacejam "i believe i can fly" prior to kick off…

Mitch Brown at FB.

Hmmmmmmmm…oh well. Fingers crossed when the bombs go up fellas. Luke Walsh is the best bomber in the game. Here's hoping.

How Moors and Pritchard aren't playing......I give up trying to work it out. If Skando comes in or Flanagan at the extra forward, just no logic at all.

Anyway, go the Tigers!

Have people had their heads in the sand for the past four and three quarter years. Nothing has changed. Sheens still refuses to give people a fair go from outside the tried and trusted. Now if our form had been for the most part good with the odd slip and our injury toll minimal you could understand his logic but that has been far from the case.

Okay we are now in a situation where their probably is not a lot of options as the stakes are to high to be experimenting , but players like Pritchard,Davis,Gower,Nichols and so on should have been given game time earlier in the season. Anyway time to hit the highway and make the long trek to Cambo
