Match Discussion: Round 7 vs Titans @ Scully Park

[Vic Mackey]

Good. He's been really poor the past 2 weeks

He’s one of the worst defenders in the team, and that’s saying something

He’ll be back to mowing lawns before seasons end

They will come out fired up tomorrow and rip into it early, but after the fire burns down a bit the Titian’s will start to rack the points up. They have speed, flair and a offload. Doubt the Titian’s would be dumb enough to get into a arm wrestle.

Sadly in our top 30 roster we just don’t have the quality to get anywhere near the eight. I would think there will be a few players offered the option to look at ESL contracts at the end of the season

I think Garner has potential and is worth persevering with, but he’s not a starting 80 min back rower atm

Nofoaluma takes fonuas spot on wing, ET to take Garners spot in the back row

He has missed some really poor ones hasn't he. He has an up-side though. He just needs some work. He wouldn't be in the top team if Lawrence was available.

Wests Tigers coach Michael Maguire has confirmed Michael Chee Kamwill be in their line-up for Saturday's clash with the Titans in Tamworth. Chee Kam pleaded guilty to common assault this week over an incident with an Uber driver in December.

Second-rower Luke Garner (concussion) has been ruled out but Robbie Farah, who also suffered a head knock in Monday's loss to the Eels, has been cleared to play. Chris McQueen is in line to come into the game-day 17 for Garner.

Wests Tigers prop Ben Matulino has won 12 of his past 13 games against the Titans.

I found Madge’s response to the Chee Kam question interesting. They asked him if he was playing and he said ‘he’s available for selection’

I’m not so sure he is playing

did packer get dropped?

did packer get dropped?

Well Garner and Nofa have been left out. Team names ET as replacing Garner but nothing certain. There’s some rumors on Facebook that Packers been dropped and in the training pics Momirovski is at left center. We might see:

1. Mbye
2. Thompson
3. Momirovski
4. Marsters
5. Jennings/Fonua
6. Reynolds
7. Brooks
8. Matulino
9. Farah
10. Twal
11. McQueen
12. Matterson
13. Taylor

14. Aloiai
15. Eisenhuth
16. Mikaele
17. Chee Kam

18. Packer
19. Jennings/Fonua

That 1 to 17 looks good, Jennings at 5 outside masters

 

[Tiger05]

McQueen is a concern. It'll be interesting if Momo gets a run. I like the bench but the starting side has a lot to prove.

I suppose let's wait until we see the team that runs out.

 

[Front-Rower]

Chee Kam stood down from tomorrow’s game. Wouldn’t be surprised if he was let go now..

After hearing the team news, team should look like this.
1. Mbye
2. Thompson
3. Momirovski
4. Masters
5. Jennings
6. Reynolds
7. Brooks
8. Packer
9. Farah
10. Twal
11. Matterson
12. Taylor
13. Aloiai

14. Matulino
15. Eisenhouth
16. Mikaele
17. Fonua
If packer has a go, we should bash them up the middle for the 80 minutes, with Taylor in the team our defence is heaps better, Fonua should be a recking ball off the bench and cover the backs.

WT will probably release him,then he will get snapped up by the Storm or Broncos and turn into a back row sensation.

I'm okay with that tbh. Offensive wise Taylor is pretty useless but I think we've been missing his defense a bit. Usually does his load then picks up the slack of others (Packer)

Wonder if the boys will turn up today or will I be turning off the tv after 20 mins

I'm not watching us getting smashed again.

But you'll jump back aboard if you hear about a win?
