WESTS Tigers Team V Canberra....

[Cultured_Bogan]

A good side this week with no obvious problems. One change for me would be Mahe Fonua to wing & Kevin Naiqama to centre . I'd like to see Mahe with more space & one on one opportunities. One wider should do just that. Also I reckon they have more go forward with both Packer & Matulino on at the same time.
Good luck guys & no excuses.

Fonua has looked very average everytime he’s played wing. I like him at centre

Yeah, Mahe's deficiencies would probably be amplified on the wing. Kev was one of our best last week from the 60 mins I saw.

Good to see Corey get the #1 back. I'd rather a fullback who's support play isn't a strong point but competitive in every other facet of the role over a a fullback who's support play is probably better but poorer in every other area.

Killer to start, with ET starting at lock and Hazlewood on the bench for mine. A more well rounded bench there.

Where has this nonsense about Corey's support play supposedly not being a strong suit? Have you watched his games at fullback?

Sorry, I was referring to his ball playing, it's the only thing Tui has him beat on. Poor use of England on my part.

Still he's probably not up there with Slater or Tedesco either.

Ah much better! Ivan has seen the light 👍

Great to see Killa in, and great to see tui and MCK out - both players who underperformed, and a reward for someone who's been ripping in.

This is what we've be looking for for years!

Well played Mr Cleary.

Finally the penny has dropped with Ivan. No Tui, no MCK and ET at lock. McIlwrick should have been in 4 weeks ago. IMO this is our best squad to date.

Or maybe he’s been trolling the forum ?

Did lawernce get injuried at the back of that game and Cleary is foxing with selections as usual with either MCK or McQ to be his replacment or is he 100% and there was no injury at the end of the game?

He’s fine just cramped up towards the end according to his sister

Yep looked like cramp the way he was stretching after he came off

Fire up Capt Packer!

King sirro will blow a gasket

 

[Gazman]

Can someone refresh my memory if Raiders have beaten us when Benji played i seemed to read this was a hoodoo for them and if he is out then Raiders should be favourites

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Good to hear Rowdy is alright. Good to see he looks like he’s going to get through a full season. Only missed one game and the one he missed was precautionary.

 

[Tiger_Steve]

Couple of things about this weekend:
1\. What’s the odds we’ll lose someone to the sin bin for a hit on a kicker? For sure I reckon!
2\. It’s time Campbelltown. 9 or 10 thousand won’t cut it! We need a packed house this weekend. No excuses - 3 games, Magpies playing, Sunday arvo.
I think Leichhardt kills Campbelltown- prove me wrong!

I saw something recently (can't remember where) saying he has only lost once in his entire career to the Raiders, including his stints at the Dragons and the Broncos.
