SMH reporting Tuki Simpkins and pagua to debut this week. Yeah

TUKI VERSE HASS hell yeah

I agree 100% with dropping Mbye and Tamou. I can't believe those who back Tamou. From the first tackle he was absolutely physically dominated again. Maybe he's trying, maybe he's not but when you watch your captain and starting prop get belted like that it exposes everyone. In defense he's always the one around the ankles or the one falling off the tackle. Maybe he's just tooslow these days but you want your big men up high wrestling and dominating the tackle. He doesn't and he didn't in the games I saw last year.

As for Mbye, he offers nothing in attack and is a weak defender. Definitely had his chance. Doueihi should be 5/8,I'd probably have Mbye on the bench as a utility, thought he was going okay there. He was at least playable.

If they are fair dinkum, at least Tamou and Mbye should not be in the side. Unfortunately I can't see it happening.

**Madge makes three key changes in roster shake-up**
Maguire's controversial decision to move Adam Doueihi to the centres has lasted just six weeks, with the under-siege coach set to move his star player back into the No.6 jersey.
Mbye has been relegated to the bench.
Junior Pauga & Tuki Simpkins will make their club debuts.
Pauga will fill in at centre, while Simpkins to start off the bench

Good news!!
Hopefully mybe is on extended bench 18-21

Any news on whether Tamou joins him on the bench?

 

[TigerTone]

Tamou is apparently gonna carry the bench from the sheds to the sideline for them to sit on , he'll then play ten minutes and asked to be replaced.

 

[mike]

2 minutes

 

[WT2K]

2 minutes

Seyfarth and Blore dropped. Twal bench. Stefano starting. Mikaele 13

Tamou retains but usually gets early mark 15mins in
Mbye on bench

This is a weird forward combination.

Why is Twal on the bench? Seyfarth should be one of the first forwards picked.

Blore I kind of understand but we should persist with him.

I feel Madge is making changes for the sake of it without any future planning.

Same with Mbye to 6.

So he doesn't even want to give Kiah Cooper a chance?

He doesn’t ever give anybody a chance…. Did you see his body language after the last game? He is not coping well and has no vision and no answers to the problems at this club……

He literally is giving 2 new blokes a go this week. Ridiculous comment

I put dibs on pauga to be shot down first by the forum

I hope not.
I hope he has a breakout game and shows some talent.

Centre is a position we are really lacking.
He could make it his own with a good performance.

Pauga's a far better prospect than Cooper and Hoffman imo. glad to see him get a run. did think we'd see Tuilagi before Tuki Simpkins though, find that one a little interesting.
