Underrated? Eisenhuth to silence doubters

[Demps]

8 Twal
9 A hooker
10 Eisenthuth
11 Garner
12 Luciano
13 Taylor

14 Aloiai
15 Musgrove
16 Mikaele
17 Che Kam

Swap Eiso with Clarke and that’s a decent forward pack with some punch and mobility, only problem that I can see is who comes in when we get an injury.

I think our first choice pack holds their own just lacking some depth.

Perfect.


Depth is weak for forwards.

Eiso. McQueen. Lawrence. Seyfarth...
Joey Ratu.

Not much to work with.

Too true bud, let’s hope for a full season of no injuries to our forwards ?

Wouldn't that be lovely.
We'll see.

Aloiai always seem to be injured.

Yeah but he still averages 18 games a season ......not great but not ugly either

Problem it seems a lot of late season injuries ...when we probably need him most

Rate it's going Packer may get an early payout and we could be in the market again.

I don’t see why Mikaele can’t start. He did it plenty last year and our pack hasn’t changed much, in my eyes he’s a guaranteed starter. Eisenhuth might not even get a bench spot in my opinion if we run two props a second rower and a utility.

I think Mikaele is a benchy at this point.
He seemed to struggle in all the games he started.

He's developing nicely tho.
Madge liked Twal from the bench in 2k19.
He's a locked in starter for mine.

Mikaele off bench at the moment tho.
Imo.

Twal for sure starts. Most people seem to have picked all the same forwards in our 17, big questions will be on who starts and who’s on the bench, might change a lot during the year.

They’ve talked the talk and now they need to back it up. They struggled many times last year and got dominated by other packs, if we want to win games we need more consistency out of our pack. Think Mikaele is in for a massive year

Yeah Mikaele needs another year ...love the bloke but his hands killed us at crucial stages last season ...even in the 9's his turnover leads to the try that won the game for the Titans

Id be very happy to run out like this.

8. Thomas Mikaele
9. Hooker
10. Oliver Clarke
11. Luciana Leilua
12. Luke Garner
13. Alex Twal

14. Utility
15. Josh Aloiai
16. Zane Musgrove
17. Michael Chee Kam
.

18. Chris Lawrence
19. Elijah Taylor
20. Matt Eisenhuth
21. Alex Seyfarth

Clarke is thew wildcard. He is a bit of a nutter and might just jump out of the ground with Maguire's coaching. If not we play Aloia or Twal and bring in one of the 18,19, 20 or 21. Either way the pack and the depth is fine.

Yes we can add one more middle as 30th but we have a better squad than most.

 

[TYGA]

We are in dire straits if Eiso is anywhere near the 17 but he did okay under Madge. Front row rotation should be Twal, Mikalele, Musgrove, Clarke.
At lock Aloai & ET. I can’t see a spot for Eiso even with injury Seyfarth and Joey Ratu May get a spot.

Rate it's going Packer may get an early payout and we could be in the market again.

Should pay out grub for this year and half of next years salary and release him back to the dogs.
No one available.

That's if they would take him back. I wouldn't cede him for that sort of coin.

 

[TrueTiger]

Just on our forward pack this year,I think they are a really good pack...I also think Eiso will do a lot better this year as he did do well under Madges coaching last year..he can improve greatly this year...just my op though...

Our starting pack and rotation forwards can all hold their own in NRL. Definitely better than being given credit for. However, they lack aggression and we don’t have an enforcer. Someone you look across the sheds at and lift because he’s playing with you. Gallen, Burgess, Tapau. We need a forward leader. From current stocks I’m hoping Packer is that man but I’m not confident for a couple of reasons: injury for one and also not sure he’s up to it.

I'd go something like this but drop Clark off and add a utility.

Tigers are still keen, as is Grant. It might be a long shot, but it's not completely out of the question.

 

[fair dinkum]

8 Twal
9 Grant if it happens, otherwise - Walters/Benji(sporadic attacking moments ala late last year when he was on fire at hooker)
10 Mikaele
11 Garner
12 Luciano
13 Taylor (Fulton role of just tackling all game)

14 Aloiai
15 Musgrove
16 MCK
17 Clarke
