Formidable team! No slight on Salmon (I think he's been good this year) but I think this game is an ideal one to road test Cogger at 14 to have a crack at hooker and fill in.

Quick question re: gameday experience with kids.

This weekend will be my first Panthers home game with my 4 year old in tow. She's really excited about going on some rides in Kidz Korner. I've never paid much attention - does anyone know how long the rides operate for? Do they continue during the game?

We might also want to spell Nathan early, not that he'd be happy about it but that's another reason to play Cogger at 14. Luke yet again was disappointing. The way he's regressing is strange

I'm just keen to see how the attack goes from here on out with the top 17. Want more cleary/Luai both sides of the ruck and less playing through Yeo and keep that as a variation a small percent of the time.

That’s solid, I’d probably have Soni Luke of Hosking. No knock on Hosking, I think he’s awesome. Just a better bench.

Salmon is easily capable of giving Nath a rest if needed.

Maybe even start Luke and give him the whole game. Stink or swim time

Not against starting him, but to suggest it’s sink of swim time is farcical.

Hit Brock Shepherd up and ask him his thoughts on Soni Luke. He’ll give you the straight facts.

I like the storm bench. Hosking/Smith/Leniu and one of Salmon/Peach.

My favourite so far. You just never lose intensity.

It covers everything.

Peach I prefer because of his speed

Yeah they go all day

Salmon can't play big minutes on an edge, Need a backrow option there

Kenny will get rested at some stage, need to get Combinations going 1st though

Luai's harbour Bridge pass was a good sign for this

Yeah the thought was good.

Against the Bulldogs he’d be fine. More than fine I’d say.

Who's Brock?

Cleary's 1st game back
Origin guys needing to get back into it.

Manly or GC is better options
