Whats Parking like at Cambo, only ever been once years ago.

the Kids are getting bigger now

You'd better get there early. The Sharks' fans will be out at Campbelltown in force in their MX5.

But Russell said Lolohea is a lock for fullback

That makes things interesting

I'm not sold on Rochow - he was steady in the first trial but he is never going to be any more than a backup for injuries.

 

[Kul]

Weird

 

[vlad]

Next question is who is goalkicking ?

Corey Thompson kicked 9 goals in 2 seasons with Widnes .

Anyone else ?

Marsters im thinking

 

[diedpretty]

Still no Benji

 

[king_sirro]

Weird

I think so too.

Doesnt look dangerous enough for me with Lolohea not somewhere.

No Benji or Elijah.

A few NSW cup players named on NRL bench but Lolo not one of them. That certainly suggests he wont be there round one.

 

[domster]

Where is Twal and Benji in the extended squad?

Also Naiquama in the centres is interesting. I thought Milne was a walk up starter for his spot…

It will be Good to see the two new props in Tigers colours.
What’s the go with no Lolohea ?
And the NSW Cup side.

I’m guessing Ivan wants some players to play long minutes in NSW Cup and mix others up in NRL . No ones looking comfortable or a sure thing for NRL .

 

[marzie]

Hmmmmmmm :question:

 

[Spud_Murphy]

I don't get that, I thought Lolohea was good the other night. I can understand swapping them around in a trial, but leaving him out altogether makes no sense to me.

Something tells me Ivan isn't too keen on Tui. Let's face it, he's always throwing one line comments to the media about how the fullback spot is not decided and up for grabs.

 

[Geo]

Why oh why did Cleary pick Naiqama as a starting centre…

Maybe it's a ploy..

Were is Liddle..?

 

[Icon]

well something about those team is not right, players are named in both the 1st and NSW cup teams:

McQueen
Felise
Fanua
etc..

 

[Tigerdon]

I suspect players like Gamble , Lolohea , McQueen , JJF will be playing long mins in NSW Cup so Ivan can see how they go over 80 mins.
And give others like Thompson a good go in the 1sts
