Does anyone know if there are rules relating to Martin Taupau being taken off for concussion 2 weeks in a row?
Outside of that, as little changes as possible while this squad finds it feet.
Probably best to send Kyle back to Reggies to get some game time?

I hope Marty can play though, this same game last year the pigs belted the Bunnies pack and in my opinion, they had a better pack last year than this, so here's hoping for a repeat performance.

I wish there were a better alternative for Halatau, but this is our best line up.

I think your on the money Willow and this will be our side (subject to Taupau) i'm not sure of the rules in regards with concussion .
I have a funny feeling that we are really going to give them a good game , don't think we will win but the effort will be there .
We will definitely know where we are at after this Weekend , C'Mon Wests Tigers !!!

Am I the only one who thinks halatau brings a lot to the team? I feel safe when the opposition run at him and when he carries the ball. He's quite solid. I would have him in our 17 until grand final tbh

My only argument with Halatau would be that he tends to lie down on top of the man trying to play the ball at times to long and last night was lucky not to get penalised a couple times .
He's no Farah in terms of creativity from dummy half but has some scoots in him from dummy half.
It just comes down to what sort of a role JT wants him to play.

He's solid and that's about it. I would like a stand in hooker to be a little dynamic to be honest, to have impact.

I hope Tapau plays because the neurologist can't find any brain injury, not because he passes a basic cognitive test with the team doc or because the NRL stipulates X number of hours. We need him against Souths, but not at the risk of his long term function.

i think he provides more than just back up hooker. he replaced siro later in the 2nd half, taupau as well as sue. he runs a good line and is fast for a 33 yo 2nd rower. not to forget that he's part of the leadership group. our best 2nd row includes siro, lovett, taupau and sue and we'd be lucky to have 100 games between them.
this is probably patty and dene's last year.

Tapau's possible exclusion makes Lodge's effort seem even softer. Marty might be out because he was KO'd two weeks in a row putting his face on the line. What's your excuse Matt? Oh you made a dick of yourself outside a night club? Yeah nice going.
