Your Team vs Slimers

[TheDaBoss]

It's hard to change a winning side..but do we change the bench a bit at all to help battle out there forward pack ?
Twal is a possibility

 

[Speed2burn]

Don’t see a use for Brooks if I’m honest, swap Twal with Huth, Huth goes back to the bench and Brooksy misses out altogether

But ultimately I think madge will swap Twal with McQueen

 

[avocadoontoast]

Twal for McQueen.

 

[JC99]

Twal lock Eiso bench, or vice versa. McQueen goooone. No other changes needed

 

[Fade.To.Black]

Would definitely be punting McQueen before Brooks.

We need a sacrificial lamb in the team. Someone who we don't mind losing to suspension for taking off the heads of Judas 1/Judas 2.

Agreed. Twal for McQueen is the only change we will/should make.

Spot on. That’s a solid looking team. If we can by years end sign a left winger to allow Talau to move to centre, get BJ back, Brooks based on form comes back in at 6 and use Mbye as a 14 we could cause some damage.

Packer playing like last week is a game changer.
Exactly what we needed. I can live with the bad contract if he aims up he’s a mean hombre.

 

[the_third]

Contract is not so bad if packer aims up like last week. He looked like he was having fun

I'd go with that too, Willow.

After been out for a few weeks twal needs to come of the bench , not sure if we need four forwards on the bench or go with 3 and brooks , brooks with his pace could be very good against a big pack late in the game .

 

[Enmore_Tiger]

Would it be an idea to bring Brooks on as dummy half for the last 20 and leave Walters doing what he is doing? Simplify Brooks´ game to pass, run and tackle until he gets his confidence back?

If we’re in the game with 20 to go Grant would be the last person you’d want to bring off imo.

I agree with your logic about Twal and Brooks on the bench.

In addition, I think if we are going to play Eisenhuth it's best he starts, given he is a long minutes, workhorse type of player. He doesn't offer much impact off the bench.

Overall, I think we are a stronger team with Eisenhuth at #13 and Twal part of the prop rotation.

I just thought if Grant is getting tired with a tough end of season to come and has that problem with his hand maybe we need to reduce his minutes. I thought Brooks against the Broncos felt the pressure to create which was less effective.

Walters needa to run the ball

He has a lethal step

I also loved how vintage benji was against the donkeys, steps, benji flick and the lot
