Your side to take on Manly

[newtiger]

Yeah Tui needs to up his game. He takes too pong returning kicks and getting in position. Thompson on the other hand goes at 100% all day.

Gee there are some hard markers here Tui has just come back from a knee injury, most probably not fully fit.
We are 4-1 should have been 5-0, and still people have the knives out.
If it was 0-5 I'd agree about changes, Ivan is loyal to the players that are having a dig.
It's all about the team.

Without Tui's football smarts we don't get the seven tackle set and don't get into position for the field goal

Tui's hitting his shots at goal like a machine as well

One of the 1st blokes picked

Our whole team has been great. How can you not have Tui? Dumbest comment I have heard in my life.

Unfortunately I can’t fit Reynolds or Nofa in my 17\. **Who replaces Packer now he’s out**?

ET should be back so Hooth can revert to Frontrow, I also Grub, JJ/Sue, Twal and Josh on the bench just a bit more grunt to allow for Packers absence.
I'm not Ivan I'm sure that he would have a solution worked out, and have a lot more football brains then me.

1\. Lolohea
2\. Thompson
3\. Marsters
4\. Naiqama
5\. MWZ
6\. Marshall
7\. Brooks
8\. Grant
9\. Liddle
10\. Matulino
11\. Lawrence
12\. Rochow
13\. Eisenhuth

14\. Reynolds
15\. Twal
16\. Taylor (if fit, otherwise Chee-Kam)
17\. Aloiai

Swap Reynolds and Benji and that would be my team.

Mine too. They need to swap.

Unlucky for MCK but what do you do.

Hey Donald haven't seen many tweets about Brooks or Lawrence..

Tim Grant is next in line then Sauaso Sue..

 

[Tiger_Steve]

My only concern with Grant is he comes up with some defensive howlers. I like:
Matalino
Liddle
Eiso
Lawrence
Rochow
Taylor

Reynolds
Twal
Aloiai
MCK

So "The Beast" is possibly getting dropped

Manly have a big pack as well Fonua Blake , Kapow and Lloyd Perrett off the bench

We will have to match fire with fire , hopefully Brooks continues with the running game , he might find the big boys out late in both halves

Brooksy's running will be important for sure. Liddle is the guy who can really crack them late though.

He plays on the left, you could put him in at centre in place of Naiqama.

 

[tigertye]

Naiqama and MWZ have been going fairly well defensively but I seriously think we need a bit of punch in our backline in attack.

I’d be looking at a team like this (assuming Packer will be out)

1\. Lolohea
2\. Nofoaluma
3\. Marsters
4\. Fonua
5\. Thompson
6\. Marshall
7\. Brooks
8\. Eisenhuth
9\. Liddle
10\. Matulino
11\. Lawrence
12\. Rochow
13\. Taylor

14\. Reynolds
15\. Grant/Sue
16\. Twal
17\. Aloiai

Nofo, Fonua and Marsters would be like extra forwards out there. Reynolds to be eased in for 20-30mins to add some spark out of dummy half or float around at lock in attack.

If it were my choice i would give this a go

I thought grant was average for Wests on the weekend. Dropped a lot of ball.

 

[stevied]

I think Felise has been the best front rower in ISP this year.

 

[stevied]

Sticking to Ivan's mantra, form should be the guide, not reputation. So therefore;
1\. Felise 2\. Sue 3\. Grant

 

[maxxy86]

Be interesting the team sheet this arvo.

Hang on.. you've moved Thompson to left wing to accommodate Nofo? No way.
And Fonua has been defensively flawed in ISP and will be a huge liability against Manly.

Just like the 851 Krammer poster has gone all quite after calling for Brook's head.

 

[TYGA]

If ET is fit Eiso will move to prop. We have Mats, Eiso, (bench) Aloai, Twal as the prop rotation. MCK can cover any position in the second row with Reynolds coming in for Goodinet on the bench and Liddle starting.

If MWZ has s injured Nofa straight swap he can play left side it’s not that hard.

Brooks and Rowdy have been outstanding haven’t they? Full credit to them. I wanted them gone for a long time. Good on them.

 

[momo_amp_medo]

With not knowing the extent of our injuries ….. it’s difficult to pick ..... but with Packer definitely out my side would be:

1\. Lolohea
2\. Thompson
3\. Marsters
4\. Chee Kam
5\. MWZ
6\. Marshall
7\. Brooks
8\. Eisenhuth
9\. Liddle
10\. Matulino
11\. Lawrence
12\. Rochow
13\. Taylor

14\. Reynolds
15\. Grant
16\. Twal
17\. Aloiai

Good response Donald. Go the Tigers. The go forward and defence by our middle players has made such a difference this year. The halves and edge players have been able to go on the front foot rather than plugging gaps.
The opposition halves this year are having nightmares about Rochow and Lawerence coming at them.
There is talk today that the Storm may drop Croft after the job Lawerence did on him. I don’t think they will it could shatter the young player.
