Your Team Vs Storm

[pawsandclaws1]

Hard to know who will be available due to injury and suspensions but if everyone fit:

1 Laurie
2 Nofa
3 Roberts
4 Doueihi
5 Maumalo
6 Mbye
7 Brooks
8 Tamou
9 Liddle
10 Twal
11 Luc
12 Garner
13 Joffa

14 J Simpkin
15 Stefano
16 Blore
17 Seyfarth.

I’d have the same, but honestly I’d want Seyfarth at 13 and Joffa on the bench instead. He deserves it and I think gives a better balance.


Seyfarth first guy picked

Double

Seyfarth first guy picked

Seyfarth is wasted in the middle. As we witnessed yesterday, he his very mobile and pulled off two try saving tackles as well as got back to support Laurie when had made his try saver. Put him in the second row. He has played his junior football in that position and prior to that in the backs.

Worth a crack

We should never select Talau for FG again.

Agree not first grade at this time needs a lot of tuition /experience/speed training to prepare for move to fowards in the future if backs dont work out for him

Nope , he’s just a second rower . Like many of us said this time last year . He’s damaging and big. He’s just as skill full as many players he’s always playing centre or wing . I rate him .

He’s just not a back .

Surely he could play some sort of role like Schuster does at Manly

Talau is just so slow though . To the point it makes you wonder if he’s ever done speed training in his life or he’s just full of slow twitch muscle fibres

Maybe he'll grow in body size for 2nd row in the future, but wow we could not play him there now

Brooks, Amone and Stefano free to play next week

CheeKam 18th- put in a good 20 mins today

Tamou on bench Seyfarth to get the aggression started from the opening whistle. Message to the team-- no aggression no 1st gde.

Not at all - I’d absolutely make sure he learns the ropes through reserve grade first ..

Dare I write it, but Seyfarth has a bit of Simon Dwyer about him.

I can see that comparison . Let’s hope the toxic mediocrity culture hanging over the club doesn’t seep into him.

 

[JC99]

Seyfarth doesn't look like he has the speed or mobility for second row but he's got more than the average middle forwards plus good ball playing. Seems like a good lock to me

Not a bad way to go, he looks more a backrower to me than a front rower.

Yes I think this is the right backline.

I'd even dare say one of the better backlines we have had in the last few years.
Sure it lacks speed, but hopefully what they lack in speed they can make up for in nous; there's a solid amount of experience there.
