If I was going to put any back into the forwards it would be Chris Lawrence I think he will end up there at some stage in his career anyway Play a role much like Anasta does at Roosters Like your thinking though

Thought it was just concussion protocol from his head knock against Newtown that kept him out of the round 1 BRET side

That would be concerning news Without Ellis and Fulton we lose lots in defense and we lose the angled play close to tryline Seeing how struggled to break Dogs defensively puts more pressure on a good short kicking game It needs to be perfect

The DT late mail says Gibbs and Ellis still need to pass fitness tests with Moors, Flanagan and the Schirnack brothers all apparently on standby.

Latest news courtesy of the official Wests Tigers website - By Wayne Cousins
Wests Tigers Head Coach Tim Sheens will give forwards Gareth Ellis and Bryce Gibbs as long as possible to prove their fitness for tomorrow night’s match against the Warriors at Leichhardt Oval.
Gibbs (knee) and Ellis (ankle) remain in doubt but Sheens said both players would not need to train today to still be able to play.
Gibbs underwent knee surgery late last season and then copped a knock to the knee against the Sydney Roosters in the Foundation Cup, resulting in him missing the season opener last Monday night.
“Both boys are working hard to get there so we will just have to wait and see what happens today. I will give them to tomorrow if I have to,’’ Sheens said.
“Bryce is racing the clock to be ready for this week. Gareth came off last week with an ankle injury and we have some concern there. “
Sheens added he would continue to bring utility Tim Moltzen along slowly. Moltzen played few minutes in last week’s loss to the Bulldogs in his first NRL game since returning from a knee reconstruction last year.
“Tim hasn’t had the game time (to start). I am still concerned about his confidence with that knee but he will get more time this week than last week. Next week is the same,’’ Sheens said.
“He is on song for a return to a starting position within the next 2-3 weeks.
“I just want Timmy to be playing. It doesn’t matter what position. He can play anywhere in the backline.
“Right at this point, I just want to get through this game. Tim will play a part and we will wait and see what happens. The way things fall generally in football games you don’t predict what is going to happen in a month’s time. "

I was confident early in the week but if we loose gibbs & ellis & fulton is already out it leaves big defence gaps in our forwards, am starting to panic.

No Ellis, Fulton & Gibbs means a similar structure to the defence that took on Parra in the trial.
Time to aim up and prove yourself guys, use this as a confidence booster to do the job against the Warriors

Have you EVER seen him play genius????
He was the stand-out forward in the 2009 20s team that made the GF!!
Do you even know the difference between Alan & Jason Schirnack???? (Jason was back-up captain to Nicholls in 2009 - ahead of Hyland, Woods etc….. and your mate Dwyer!!!!)
Unlike Dwyer - he will tackle all day - not miss 6 tackles from 23 attempts - not take just 4 hitups for 31 metres in 44 minutes of game time - not drop every fourth ball that comes his way - not go missing when the going gets tough & not live off his reputation!!!!
You apparently couldn't rate an all-round quality footballer to save your life!!!
Ignorant post!!!!
