Your team v Manly?

[Liam]

I'm not too dissapointed with the prop situation, we have Taufua, Cross, Fa'as, House, Natusch, Wicks and Edwards. I'm more concerned with our second row with Patto looking like he's picked up an injury.

 

[Joker's Wild]

1. McManus
2. Mata'utai
3. Sau
4. Doogs
5. Uate
6. Gids
7. Scotty
8. Tafua
9. De Gois
10. Cross
11. House
12. Taia
13. Hilder

14. Natuch
15. Faas
16. Karrawana
17. Wicks

Ive left Patto out cause it looks for all money that he will be unavailable.

Gids is the only real 5/8 option IMO as Rogers and Hilder will just be pedestrian in controling the attack and Ndaria really showed nothing yesterday (how can a half/hooker have such an aweful passing game :crazy.

Pete M has impressed me of late and easing him in on the wing with a possible swap with Jimmy to fullback later in the game.

Wicks needs some FG time to prove himself and it needs to happen soon.

damn we are skinny.

I'm starting to warm to Gidley at 5/8th and Mata'utia at fullback..

How much do you think we'd lose with Mata'utia at the back though? Is it worth moving Gidley for him to come in?

 

[Frederick]

I wouldn't drop Mata'utai in just yet. Give Marv a run at 5/8, and tell Gidley to get more involved. From what I've seen in this opening 3 rounds he's been very quiet by his standards.

 

[Pika]

Patto will have scans today.

Best 2, worst 6 is the mail.

I was told the problem with the ankle but have forgotten already..... something to do with bone webbing or the like.

Seriously, do we even have bone webbing????

Jacob Ling - please phone Brian Smith before 10am tomorrow - urgent.

 

[roopy]

Marvin will probably get a run as a bench forward - or Rogers to lock.

 

[macavity]

11 Steve Simpson

wishful thinking...

 

[Pika]

Steve is not there yet.

 

[Jono078]

Damn, we might see Taufua in the backrow with Wicks or Faas starting then?

 

[aqua_duck]

Marvin will probably get a run as a bench forward - or Rogers to lock.

rogers to left right out sounds lie a much better move

 

[CJG 182]

I'd rather just play with 16 men and leave Rogers out.

Hell, playing with 16 and Rogers in the 17 are pretty much the same thing anyway.

 

[B-dos]

its a shame we dont play the roosters this week.

ive just heard Mason and Myles have been stood down over a breach of their alcohol policy.

Im sure Manly are going to field a 17 man team. Best we do too ;-)

 

[Bring it home Knights]

The more I think of it, the more I'd like gidley at 5/8 for this game. His defence in the front line will be a definate plus, as well as he'd be the best play maker in the team atm behind Deueau. not sure about fullback as I haven't seen Mata'utia play, Mcmanus may be an option as he is safe as houses under the kick, is great in defence and brings the ball back strongly.
