WESTS Tigers Team V Canberra....

[clifferdSH]

3 second rowers (2 reserve quality at that) and a utility on the bench

We will compete for 25 minutes then get steam rolled like last week

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Grant, Ava and Woods can't be all on the bench at once.

Hunt would have been making way from ISP cup game. Hopefully Tatola was being shielded before his debut. Otherwise we are going in with Grant the only recognised front rower on the bench and will at times be carrying a backrow of Lovett, Lawrence and Edwards.

Quick glance at the Raiders forum and it seems there is a general view yhat our bench is very ordinary ie crap !
Gotta agree but hopefully the wet wearher may be a leveler.
😛ray:

What about 40 inches of rain, I think we will need at least that amount of rain to be a leveller.

JT is utterly incompetent. For the sake of the club I really hope they get rid of him sooner rather than later.

Today's not the day for a rookie front rower to debut

I agree but why even bother naming him in the 19 to start with?? Is JJ injured?? Why not give him a go

 

[Harvey]

That bench is terrible. There ill be excuses after the game, but think it was lost with the bench selected. I have defended JT but this is the dumbest selection I have seen

 

[marzie]

I don't understand JT vs the biggest pack in the Comp picks 3 second rowers on the bench…..

Frustrating

 

[maxxy86]

Now will the kid come on at centre ala what Jamaal has done in two rounds??

Do you know who our coach is?

 

[Snake]

How could you play a player that has not even played one game this season …I will imagine this site will be in melt down for Taylor's head after this game and for good reason!

 

[Tiger_Tim]

I've brought my son down to the game. Just told him we might go to the Questacon instead.
It's going to be a long day for us supporters but even longer for the players.

 

[clifferdSH]

He admitted he picked a poor bench last week

Well tbh this bench is probably even worse

How dumb is this guy?

 

[Tigerdave]

I really wonder sometimes what goes on in JT's head

air?

I know where your coming from and its hard to mount an argument, but i still disagree. The good ones thrive with the challenge. I say throw em in. Didn't Skando get thrown into a wild rough game for his debut? The ones who get thrown in and fail are the ones who were gonna fail anyway IMO.

Rediculous selections by Taylor. I have been a supporter of his to some extent but to throw Lovett straight back in and have no specialist front rowers on the bench against any team, let alone Canberran, is disgraceful decision making.

 

[madgey76]

How does Lovett make this side Taylor is a joke how come we haven't seen JJ Felise

 

[cktiger]

I can't remember ANY team not having a frontrower on the bench.
We'll need all our playmakers to play out of their skin to get close.

Edwards is a prop.

 

[Cosimo_Zaretti]

There are no props on the bench.
Again.

 

[shifty]

Is JT hoping we go toe to toe initially to tire their big men out, bring in the fresh 2nds to run around them? Coz their bench doesnt lose out much with their rotation..
