Your Team vs Bulldogs Round 7

[Deleted member 3518]

Why are some people picking both McIntyre and MCK on the bench? Aren't they both 2nd rowers that can play in the centres if required?

That was the bench last week mate .

 

[Harvey]

Hoffanoffa would make a good wing combo

Has any more info been provided about Musgrove's injury. On the night they said it was a knee, then it was speculated as an ankle and now fox sports is saying it's his foot?
His and Twal's injuries both seemed quite innocuous and there wasn't really any replays showing what happened, it will be interesting to see how the scans come back.

I think it might be worth going a more mobile pack against the Dogs who have quite a few big middles. We could have Clark in for Taylor and bump Blore in to starting lock but I just think we're looking too inexperienced in the forwards if we have Clark, Blore and McIntyre in there. The Broncos forwards are super talented but there inexperience has really been showing this season.

On debut starting at lock would be a big ask. Wonder how many minutes he has in him

Logic would dictate Taylor starts at Lock, Eiso can churn out big minutes up front, bring Blore off the bench with Mikaele, McIntyre and probably Clark ahead of Lawrence and Seyfarth.

Bring in Simpkin second half.

 

[Russell]

Bring in Simpkin second half.

Bring in Simpkin second half.

We do want to win the game.

Issues with the Campbelltown surface perhaps

If Talau did his hamstring the other week I'll be surprised if he is named today.

Issues with the Campbelltown surface perhaps

Noticed that the other night .. it has done well considering it is a suburban ground.. there has been a lot of 1st grade footy played there the last month . The curators have done there best ... games are now being moved to other grounds as the surface has deteriorated.

 

[Spartan117]

Hes in our top 30. Development players are eligible for first grade anyway, Hoffman is a development player and will probably

More precisely

I thought he was more of a young prospect recruitment.

Didnt think he was ready for the first grade call up in 2020

 

[Moh]

A lot of people are going to need to step up big time to fill in the huge void Twal leaves. Such a big loss that will be felt in the middle.

 

[happy_tiger]

The Pommie player will be available for the Dogs this week won't he ??

 

[bptiger]

No he is in quarantine, and will need 2-4 weeks training after that.

 

[bptiger]

I hear that Shawn blore will play lock this week .

 

[JC99]

Hopefully we can get an injury report today. I’m resigned to the fact Twal will be out for a month but hopefully Musgrove will only be out a week or two.

Talau being (apparently) fit is a big boost as he can come straight in for Jennings and it’s an upgrade to the team.
