Wests Tigers Team v Brisbane Rd 10

[jrtiger]

are we assuming Benji will still play right side attack and Walters will slot straight into Brooks's position on the left?

 

[Sart0ri]

So Brooks may potentially be used as a hooker for a tiring Grant if required.

More likely that Walters would move to 9

Not a chance, Walters would go to hooker and Brooks the halves.

Not if Walters is killing it and Harry buggered.

expect changes......

To be honest this team shows how poor our overall squad is. Clark, MCK, Taylor all weren’t that great for us and have been replaced - problem is instead of having young up and comers we have McQueen and Packer.

At least that seems to be changing for next year at least with our props.

 

[JC99]

I’m happy tommy is back. Makes me more confident in our edge defence on that side, Mbye and him defended pretty well together.

Glad to see McGuire not afraid to make changes. Hope McQueen plays well first up after long spell. Billy playing in the 6 will get lit of publicity with playing the Bronx.

 

[JC99]

Out of all our halves brooks is the best one to be coming off the bench. He’s lightning fast and hopefully can follow our forwards around to take advantage of an offload and some tired defenders.

Surprised to see Packer starting, figured he would be on the bench. McQueen seems a bit pointless, would have preferred to see Clark on the bench. No doubt Madge is firing rockets at training. Mbye can count himself lucky.

Brooks should have been out of the side altogether, put another forward on the bench, at least the coach has put him on notice, he has had a free ride ever since he debuted, I am looking forward to watching Walters get a crack in his natural position, fire up Billy boy

Hopefully the recruitment will improve ...as a club there is nothing new and improved .. other clubs are rolling out youngsters at gay abandon .

McQueen is a waste of a spot. We are playing with 16 if that’s the case.

And throw in Packer who will last 3 minutes before he is out of condition.

Like to see that !

Would be tough to not carry a back rower on the bench. Mbye probably only keeping his spot due to us having no outside backs

 

[WT2K]

Good to see Tommy and McIntyre back.

 

[hugggarz]

Is this the first time that Brooks has been benched?
Not the team I expected but happy enough given the toys Madge has been given to play with.
Also good to see Mikaele named, thought he may have picked up an injury late against Souths.

Tyson Gamble a reserve for the Broncs 🙂

McIntyre is a backrower.

He’s playing prop and part of our prop rotation. Maybe Blore will take McQueens spot but I don’t think it’ll happen.

We've been hoping for this from McQueen for 3 years now and he hasn't delivered...don't hold your breath!
