You’re fired!

Fire Godinet. Slowest service since Robbie Farah's last season with us.
Hard for Brooks and Benji to do anything getting the ball from a slow dummy half.
Time is metres.

I don't want see him again.

Liddle is not even close to being ready to play the full 80.

I call him Jacob Little.

Gold Trumpy

I always get a little worried when people refer to themselves in the third person.

How good is Trumpys topic though? And look at the responses.

Korea is at peace now by the way thanks to Trumpy.

Youre welcome

Good riddance and you're welcome.

Trumpy

Its worn thin now with Nofo.

I'm tempted to drop Benji for Gamble but I'd stick with him again.

When's Packer back?

1.Thompson
2.Fonua
3.MCK
4.Marsters
5.Naqiama
6.Marshall
7.Brooks
8.Sue/Packer if fit
9.Taylor
10.Matulino
11.Lawrence
12.Rochow
13.Eisenhuth

14.Twal
15.Alioia
16.Felise
17.McIllwrick until Taylor can play 80 at 9

No Liddle…? I think Packer Twal and Taylor will be right for this week..

1.Thompson
2.Fonua
3 Naqiama
4.Marsters
5\. Nofoaluma

6.Marshall
7.Brooks

8.Packer
9.Taylor
10.Matulino
11.Lawrence
12.Rochow
13.Eisenhuth

14\. Twal
15\. Aloiai
16\. Liddle
17\. Sue

I thought Sue was good today especially his second stint so he keeps his spot over Grant...

Packer will be another week won't he ??

Yeah Sue and Grant impressed with the ball , Grant seemed to struggle with the speed of the game in defence though

How is McQueen going in ISP , does the score line's represent his form ??
 
Nofo just consistently poor reads in defence. This has not improved so I doubt it ever will. Parra attacked our right side all second half. Needs to play Intrust cup in my view.
We lack pace in the backs so if we sign another centre it should be someone with some toe.

I'd prefer the centre is a good defender , good hands and can make good yards out of dummy half

Look at Melbourne , speed out on the flanks is key , creative centres that can defend well

I'm not sure what others think , but would Chambers be the best centre in the World now ??

I remember Elford who was Wests Tigers centre in their premiership team off 2005\. Never a star but if not for his defensive I believe that Wests Tigers would have not made the impact they had in 2005.

Missed the last couple of ISP but before then McQueen was improving steadily in both fitness and play, and looking solid. I don't think he would offer much impact but then again MCK has dropped off in that regard and it seems Rochow's stocks are not as firm as they were. McQueen wouldn't let anyone down I don't reckon.

Re the replacement forwards I don't want Sue and Grant both in the team. Shades of previous unsuccessful years there! Please hurry back Russell… and as it seems we are creating a bit more attack, Godinet out and Killer back in (if we are going to play with two hookers).

Those WT's sunnies you've got , are they a bit Roy Orbisonish ??

I actually think we need to give big wraps too Kevin Naquama. In Attack he is far more scary then Esan Marsters and he with MWZ have been solid in Defense. Every game I have seen him do at least one huge run and has either gone himself or set up a try for MWZ.
Not saying best center in the world, but I am saying he is bloody awesome. Absolutely killed it for Fiji and becoming more deadly in the NRL.
 
Our centres have been excellent, barring one game each, but remarkably consistent now that we have 8 games to go off.

Wing worries me, feel better with Thomson on a flank as it is a lock and load option, but that weakens fullback due to Tui being Tui currently. Big question marks over Nofo and MWZ for mine.

I think Rochow, Benji, and to a lesser extent the Huth and Aloiai need to lift. The early season form of these four has fled.

Hooker is a massive weakness, Godinet concerns me.

That's seven guys I have on notice after a 5-3 record, shows we are having a great year really and getting great value from the rest of the squad.

I'd say blokes were probably issued their first warning last week, going off reports of Cleary's reaction. You give them a week or two to respond before you open the trap door to ISP imo.
 
The biggest gap from 1st choice to 2nd choice is no doubt our dummy half.

A fit Liddle is light years ahead of the next best DH in our team.

To a lessor extent I would nominate Reynolds (when fit) in for Benji.

Killer is a good back up in my opinion , not too much flash , solid defender
 
For weeks I have wondered why Godinet has been chosen ahead of MM. Obviously Ivan sees something in him that MM isn't showing - it can't be defence, so all I can think is that he has a little more ball playing ability and perhaps slightly better service.
I can't see Liddle mentioned anywhere so I assume he is injured and getting a rest this week - does anyone know for sure?
 
I believe that Godinent is there this week to accomodate the likely scenario if Benji is replaced late in the match, Godinet then goes to half, Brooks to 5/8 and and ET continues at Hooker.
