'14 - Round 2 v Titans (Team Lists)

[Radical Rat]

If we can show the same defence we showed today, there is no reason we cant beat souths. The way we muscled up with Galloway, Woods and Tupau all on the field at the same time was epic.

Lawrence looked to be playing well untill he did his hamstring. Simona will most likely replace him and with Fulton coming back we are getting closer to full strength again

I'm worried about how we're gonna back up with the short turn around considering the heat.

 

[Matchball]

How many times has Lawrence done his hamstring now?
I think despite his ability, he is injury prone and a liability now.
When was the last time he actually had a great game? I can't remember.

 

[madunit]

He has been playing better than last year. Hamstrings are fickle beasts. He'll be fine.

He looks much lighter & fitter too, but doesn't appear to have lost much impact in his defence.

 

[Henri Cartier-Bresson]

Oh bugger it, how bout we all hide in the car park and hope the Titans don't notice we haven't turned up ? If we get off the bus, I think ... WE 'RE ROOTED.

Ditto next week

Really glad we got off the bus.
What the **** would I know.

Don't see how we hold Souths up the guts this weekend however. Isaac Luke on the back of Burgess and Burgess etc, then out wide to Inglis ... I don't think we have the muscle to counter that ...

But hey, given my recent form we'll probably run their giants about and get em at the death.

Hahah I think you've de-jinxed it.

Its funny because usually I'm pretty good with my TAB bets but this season I have not won a single bet. I went f**k it and put money on the titans...boom Tigers smashed it.

I feel like my betting is cursed, so I will be betting against the tigers every week. Happiness is more important than money

 

[N.C.]

Anyone know how many minutes each member the team played on Sunday? Looking at nrlstats.com but they've apparently not updated that bit yet...

Didn't want to start a whole new thread (as the official RD3 one will come out soon), but here's my predicton for Rd3 based on the Rd2 performance and injuries:

Tedesco
Nofo
Lulia
Simona (very excited that this dude is back)
Pat Richards
Anasta
Brooks
Woods
Farah
Galloway
Fulton
Patterson
Blair

Tupau
Sue
Gavet
Bodene

Ava pushed to 18th man to accommodate Fulton inclusion

 

[madunit]

Fulton & Ava will be named ahead of bojangles

Ava should be first man picked, not 18th. Replace Bodene with Ava and looks good to me.

I'm not sure he is first picked but he deserves a spot doesn't he. Our pack looks a lot better this year.

I'd go with:-

Woods
Farah
Galloway
Bodene
Patterson
Blair

Taupau
Ava
Gavet
Fulton

I think Sue will be suspended but I would still probably drop him if he is available. Bodene and Patterson to me must be under pressure but so are Fulton and Blair.

I read on Zero Tackle that he won't be suspended if he takes the early plea.
