[happy_tiger]

I'd go with..

1\. Tedesco
2\. Naiqama
3\. Simona
4\. Hoeter
5\. Richards

6\. Moses
7\. Brooks

8\. Woods
9\. Farah ©
10\. Galloway
11\. Sironen
12\. Sue
13\. Taupau (vc)

14\. Halatau
15\. Lawrence
16\. Lodge
17\. Seumanufagai

18\. Lovett
19\. Funaki...

I honestly think we can't take Halatau and Lawrence into a game v the Roosters

seemed to work okay against the dogs, but i had the same concerns leading into the game.

halatau runs quite powerfully for his size, especially near the line.

i think we'll be okay now that we've got keefy back.

Keefy mentioned he might miss a couple of weeks

 

[tig_prmz]

it will be very hard to get the combo right in the forwards.

i have a feeling JT placed lawrence in the forwards to make up for the lack of experience in losing galloway.

Not a bad looking side Geo. I don't think Lovett has done anything wrong, but Lawrence could probably handle edge backrower without too many issues.

Keefy mentioned he might miss a couple of weeks

Rep weekend next week which means it will be 3 weeks since his last game and the Rorters..is that more than a couple?

Depends whether he meant from last night or not I guess

Its an AC joint injury , they can get messy quickly

You wouldn't want to rush him back , he is too crucial long term to our chances in 2015

Milky telling someone to slow up on posting teams? Haha I've heard it all now.

That's an Interesting way of playing the forwards MacDougall.
I'm assuming you're trying to counteract the problem of having Woods, KG and Taupau all subbed off at the same time. By starting with Sue up front.
When we lost momentum Against the Raiders. KG was off and Woods was playing long minutes and the Raiders started making metres through the middle.
Also I quite like Halatu at 2nd row with Lawerence on the bench. We have size in every other position.
With MacDougall's team we have the strongest bench we've had since Taupau was on the bench.
A lot of people in the past have said dont put KG on the bench because he doesn't offer impact. I see it differently. Coming off the bench He offers stability in the middle at times when the opposition are looking to get the upper hand. Lodge can come on and offer impact.
Lawerence as a edge player as well as a high energy defender (he offers more than Santi) and Ava as a genuine bench prop.
Lovett is the unlucky one here. He is next picked if we have any injuries.

Assuming Keith is back id Start Sue, Woods and Taupau in middl, have Lodge, Galloway and Ava as wave 2.
I reckon that keeps our middle strong throughout, and eliminates that time before half time where we lose control of the middle.
Id keep Lawrence in the centres and Lovett on the edge.

I like this idea. I think Galloway deserves to start over Sue however I like the idea of those 6 rotating up the middle throughout the game. The edge secondrowers gets less time off the park but they don't have to work as hard.

 

[Cosimo_Zaretti]

Worst case lineup with injuries. Still a workable side.

1\. Tedesco
2\. Naiqama
3\. Hoeter
4\. Lawrence
5\. Richards

6\. Moses
7\. Brooks

8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Sue
11\. Sironen
12\. Lovett
13\. Taupau

14\. Halatau
15\. Buchannen
16\. Lodge
17\. Seumanufagai

 

[InBenjiWeTrust]

1\. Tedesco
2\. Naiqama
3\. Hoeter
4\. Simona/Fine
5\. Richards

6\. Moses
7\. Brooks

8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Seumanufagai
11\. Sironen
12\. Sue
13\. Taupau

14\. Akuaola
15\. Buchannen
16\. Lodge
17\. Galloway

Go Tigers :sign:

 

[Cosimo_Zaretti]

I know there's not much love for Lawrence on this forum, but I think if Simona is injured we can't have Hoeter and Fine together in the centres, we need Lawrence for this one. A centre pairing with a combined two games in the NRL isn't going to hold up against SKD and Jennings.

 

[Tbone]

Worst case scenario, if Keefy, Nofa, Simona and Richards are out:

1\. Tedesco
2\. Naiqama
3\. Fine
4\. Lawrence
5\. Hoeter
6\. Moses
7\. Brooks
8\. Sue
9\. Farah
10\. Woods
11\. Sironen
12\. Lovett
13\. Tapau
14\. Lodge
15\. Ava
16\. Buchanan/Akouala/Fine
17\. Halatau

If Richards is fit, Hoeter to the centers, Richards to the wing and Fine to drop off or to the bench as second rower depending on whether due plays prop or second row.
