Smeg, I think Tigers fans are the only ones seeing Utai as a target for highballs. Last year (and last week) he wasnt targeted.

He had a blinder and has to start against Manly.

Sorry dude, he was targeted yesterday, in fact the Sharks would have scored if Wright didn't drop the pill stone cold…

Defending wingers are out jumped by attacking wingers under the high ball in every game….I wonder why Wright dropped it....someone got in his road maybe?

On the team, 1 & 7 seem to be the issue.....it should be only the 1, as least changes as possible....Moltzens worked at half all summer, not the time to change now

1\. Brow...oops....Humble
 
Time will tell but not 100% sure Humble is our long term no1, got a feeling he is a no6 who can play 7 who at a pinch can play 9 and 1–so that makes him a standout no14\. We will get a better idea after the Manly game as they will target both him and Utai all game
 
General consensus Humble @1 and if Reddy is ready then bench spot. Good luck to Brown, hope he can find a regular gig at the Dogs.

I saw it from side on, he simply lost control of it.

Agree in regard to the 1 & 7, if Moltzen is moved, it's then a case of the same old with Sheens weakening one position to strengthen another. As you've said, Moltzen has trained as a half all off-season, leave him be and let him work back into a rhythm with Benji. It will cost us more games moving Moltzen to fullback. Sheens has already shown his hand by moving him back there and that he probably feels Miller is not the solution.

Humble looked the goods when he slotted in, he really made the best of a bad situation. Even if Brown was still going to be here next week, Humble should be given the look-in. He was doing all the things Sheens appears to like from a fullback.

Have spoken to a few Parra fans and the consensus that Humble is a good attacking fullback but not very good defensively and not very good at all under the high ball. Most of them see him as a five-eighth or halfback rather than a fullback, but admitted he is a good fill in.

To be honest I thought he made a couple of very good tackles at fullback, but he did let two bombs bounce which deeply concerns me. We already have one liability under the high ball out there, we can't afford to carry another one, especially against Manly who with Cherry-Evans and Foran have one of the best kicking games in the comp.

Anyway, IMO the Tedesco injury is going to cause us heaps of trouble. More than most will believe.
