I'm worried that Slimey's Eels were held to 0 by Wicky's Waiders..they will be desperate ..
Seems Slimey pushing it up hill don't go so good..

Thats for sure but Fergo is a massive aerial threat on our short wingers.

Too true, losing Ferguson is a huge loss for them, he was one if the key players that helped kickstart their season

Well lets see what Madge does, I really hope he doesn't change the system so Benji doesn't have to play reggies.
He has set a precedent, Benji has to play reggies, not at 6 or 14

I’d be extremely surprised if Benji came back into the 17\. We are a much better team with Reynolds at 5/8\. Not even close.

I can't see any changes from last week's team except for whatever is happening with Jennings and Mbye.

Boy have we been lucky with key outs for other teams. No TPJ for Broncs, Fergo likely won't play for the Eels and Ash Taylor looks like he will be out for the Titans.

Titans can't cop a break lmao

And this is the exact mentality we don't need our team to entertain
Never give a sucker an even break …when they are down keep them down ...bury them further if you can
Enough clubs have done it to us for long enough , lets return the favour

Oh yeah him too. We could do with the luck if Reynolds played last season we would have had a good crack at playing finals footy.

**All eyes will be on the number six jersey this week for Wests Tigers as Michael Maguire's side take on the Parramatta Eels in their annual Easter Monday clash at Bankwest Stadium.**
After two superb performances at five-eighth in the past fortnight — including a Man of the Match effort last Thursday against Brisbane — Josh Reynolds seems most likely partner Luke Brooks in the halves once again this week, but it’ll be interesting to see what impact Benji Marshall's potential return from injury could have.
Marshall has not played since picking up a minor hamstring in the Round 3 loss to the Bulldogs, and had been slated to make his possible return in Round 6 — making it very intriguing to see whether the Kiwi international is back available for selection this week and what possible impact that has on the final make up.
Robert Jennings will also be monitored throughout the week after being forced off with concussion in the first half of his side's win over the Brisbane Broncos.
Jennings will undergo the appropriate concussion protocols throughout the week and be monitored closely by the club's medical staff, and will certainly benefit from the long turnaround that will see 10 days between the Round 5 and Round 6 games.

2019 Match Highlights: Canterbury Cup Round 5
The other big inclusion for Wests Tigers could come in the form of David Nofoaluma, who [made a strong return from injury](https://www.weststigers.com.au/news/2019/04/14/2019-match-highlights-canterbury-cup-round-5/) via the club's Canterbury Cup side.
Nofoaluma dislocated his shoulder in the pre-season and had not featured for the club all year prior to the weekend's game, and will certainly be better for the 80 minutes under his belt — although it may be tough for him to find his way in to the side immediately given the strong performances from Wests Tigers' back five.
On the other side, Parramatta could be without star winger Blake Ferguson after the 2018 Premiership winner was forced from the field in his side's 19-0 loss to Canberra. Already [playing on with a badly broken nose](https://www.nrl.com/news/2019/01/23/casualty-ward–late-mail-all-the-latest-nrl-injury-news/), Ferguson eventually succumb to a ribs injury that could sideline him for Monday's game, although the longer turnaround will again be helpful for his chances of being passed fit.
Should he miss out, Bevan French is a chance of returning on the wing.
Halfback Mitch Moses had to have a dislocated finger put back in place against the Raiders but finished the match and should be fine for this week's game, while Coach Brad Arthur could be set to welcome Manu Ma'u back from a knee injury.
Nathan Brown (pectoral) and Dylan Brown (back) remain unavailable for selection.
Both sides will name 21-man squads for Monday's game at 4:00pm AEST on Tuesday before dropping two players each out 24 hours before kickoff.
Final team lists will be confirmed one hour prior to kickoff (3:00pm, Monday)

Moses is one of the best and most dangerous halves in the game if given space and time and one of the worst without it.
Parra has an aggressive forward pack but they can be hit and miss. Need to get aggressive ourselves and win the contact. Get in their face with good line speed and pressure their playmakers. Fergo out would be a huge bonus for the team but we’ll need to play well to get the win.
Hoping to see more cohesion and depth in attack. We’ve been very flat the first month and our back line plays have been slow and cumbersome - timing off and balls behind runners. Hoping the 10 day turnaround gives them time to work on this aspect.

Need to get in the face of Moses like the Dragons did against Lachlan Lewis. He will fold under the pressure.
