Match Discussion: Round 7 vs Brisbane @ Campbelltown Sports Stadium, Leumeah / Dharawal

If Tavana can’t be selected then it’s a tough one coz all our other options have glaring weaknesses.Id prefer LL over Skelton.I wonder if Herbert could competently handle playing on the wing.

I'm playing Masi on the wing. The kid has star potential. Just let him figure it out. He is a better option than all of those players excluding maybe Tavana when it comes to the high ball.

I can’t see Benji dropping the kid & I’ve got no prob backing him & retaining him as like u said he has enormous potential & it’s not wise especially re the possible adverse effect on his confidence to be punishing a precocious kid for 1 poor game

I havnt seen Benji so flustered at a presser. He said he bought madden on to try to nail the game. That was the cat out of the bag. He knows he fked up and he may now know what needs to be done? If I was Benji I’d pull api aside and ask him honestly who should play with jock, AD or Luai. Api’s out there. he’s got a feel for it, before and after.

Can you imagine JL being dropped, there would be an uproar, no chance.

JL & Madden in the halves, AD to lock, Skelton on the wing & Masi back to cup for me.

I think we lose too much go forward and strong defence with AD at lock, maybe later in the game

I’ve been emphatic about JL playing nsw cup but hell will freeze over b4 it were to happen.

I’ll put a 50 on JL not starting in the halves . Only coz it’s be paying well OR the bench or somewhere outside the halves. As chunk said just imagine the uproar.Make that 20

Benjiswife: you have to do it Benji for the good of the team
Benji.. omg you’ve always been right ..are you sure ?

Starting a 4 time premiership winning half off the bench or in reserves is the most tigers thing ever. Especially over Madden and Douehi lol

I can't see it happening but where does he honestly sit in relation to our halves performances over the course of the season.

He was great against the Cowboys and in the trial. He was ordinary against Souths and the Broncos. AD and Madden have been killing it.

I've seen him kill it at Origin level.

The best solution is that he finds a purple patch of form and that is what we are paying him to do.

He was playing well before he got injured. I will give him time.

As I said earlier, we didn't get flogged, we got beaten by a FG.
