Round 1 V West Tigers

[SAP58]

Despite the leak in the press I will be surprised if McGoose drops one of his favourites ! But one thing that wont change is his diabolical use (or lack thereof) of the players on the bench....

If Aitken gets named in 30 mins this place will go full scale meltdown.

A part of me wants to see Aitken/Lafai named with Williame not named just for the forum lols.

If that happens @gitano is going to have a field day in here.

Geeze that bench is light in the middle. Have to assume that Friz and/or Tariq will play some solid middle minutes during the game.

its ok... found him

So basically one change to the starting 13 that got consistently flogged last year, excellent. Sorry two.

Looks like Merrin has to play up front.
We do look very light on as far as prop goes, especially when interchange is concerned.Unless Host plays some minutes there.
Glad to see Tyrell on the bench.
Kerr in 21 Maybe a late inclusion.?

I agree, I know he has been named but is Kerr fit or named subject to a fitness test ?

 

[SAP58]

Wests Tigers have named Thompson at fullback and Douehi in the centres Luch on the bench.

The bloke hanging onto the sinking ship ?

 

[mickeylane]

McGregor is a merkin! He’s setting up Williame to fail selecting him on the right side as he’s a specialist left centre .. he offloads w his left .. major f**k up! Lafai and Ravalawa should not be there .. the opportunity to slot Fuimaono at RC and Williame at left and bring in Kerr as another big man has been lost..
Ps: Corey Norman very lucky to out point Clune hence why Clune is in the squad to remind Norman he has to perform or he will be bumped

 

[Vinnie]

I agree, I know he has been named but is Kerr fit or named subject to a fitness test ?

I don't think he's fully fit, would be smarter to give him another week to get fully fit. Based on his showing in the nines and charity shield so far i feel he could become one of our top players, and many others more knowledgeable than me have said the same thing. So why would we risk further injury to him by playing him half fit ?

 

[SBD82]

I agree, I know he has been named but is Kerr fit or named subject to a fitness test ?

I hope so, but doubt it.

It’s a bit frustrating to be honest. With two physically dominant edge back rowers like Taz and Tyson they should spend the first half hurting the opposition halfs, and reap the reward in the second half. Moving them just gives relief to the other team and they stop looking out of the corner of their eye with the ball or making bad choices in defence.

Someone else might’ve too last night according to an informed source.
Apparently an unnamed Dragons player with a Mary tattoo on his butt was confronted by a security guard in the WIN car park last night - and given a warning for ars*licking in a public place.
