TEAM LIST Wests Tigers Team v Parramatta Eels

Team List
yep but no way would he be physically fit within 7 days. Most clubs and teams (no matter how amateur) put players through a very rigorous test. Since he tested positive on the day of the game, he wouldn't be able get tested before the day of the game. There was no way that he was going to play.

He’s a backup on game day if an injury happens. What else could you do? You aren’t going to name an outside back on the bench in case one goes down. Most If not all teams do this. We are extremely thin on outside back options as it is.

If Tuilagi is our back up 'outside back' option...then we really are in a world of trouble...
Imagine this. If all the rumours are true we could end up winning with:
Brooks at hooker
Tuilagi and Garner in the centres and
Ronnie Palmer at Fullback.
 
Hasn't been training with he squad eh...
Unlikely to play is the juice.

We'll see...
 
For those who think this is the team that will run out...

What is the contingency plan if a center or winger are hurt early?

JTJ is always likely to break down etc.

There is none.

If this is indeed the final 17, then Madge has genuinely lost the plot.
I would say Hastings would need to shuffle into centre or fullback. All teams would need to reshuffle in that scenario because you don’t plan for it. You simply don’t pick JTJ if youre worried about his frailty

Some people don’t get symptoms
 
Some people don’t get symptoms
My son is a theatre nurse in Canberra and he, his wife and kids recently got COVID.
The wife got really sick but he didn't have any symptoms, and the kids were down for a couple of days.
He is boostered and wife was due to have her booster soon, unsure about the kids. All are ok.
 
Reviewing the changes and below is the impact I want to see

1) Hastings takes control of the team formations. We will have some teething issues but I want to see a marked improvement of the forwards knowing when they are expected to run and the lines. Our Hooker shouldn't have to guess the options.
2) Hastings will get the ball out wider with more eyes up football with link plays to Brooks/Laurie
3) If Brooks goes into Hooker I want to see a low distance corner kick & I want to see some darts
4) Laurie just runs the 2nd man play but straightens up the attack not slides it
5) Laurie supports Joe, Tamou & Lucy on their inside shoulders - all 3 have had moments in each game that if support was around them something could've happened.
6) Nofa error free game, he goes looking for the ball, runs it straight and jumps for high balls
7) Toa & Garner both have a clean game
8) If we kick high, we apply pressure on the catcher/go for the ball with support
9) we use a hard running Lucy as a decoy to draw in Eels defenders and space JTJ if he plays

I like our defensive efforts but we need to uptick our attacking efforts and be more aggressive on that end.
Can you email this to Madge please Mighty Man. Especially the part about Laurie coming off the shoulder of forwards. Even if he doesn't get the ball he puts doubt into defenders who normally stockpile on our one out runners.
