Mamo gone. Gray in doubt. Latrell to return. AJ still alive? Humphreys a chance?

Schuster again killed it in reggies and we need his skill in the halves because we can't just play 2 halfbacks with little ball playing creativity side by side again.

Might have to promote Cup hooker Ryan Gray through an exemption to join the NRL squad on the basis that we are out of specialist hookers.

Ryan gray is not up to nrl standard. I think best option may be to move Sullivan to 9 (has played there before) Dodd and schuster in the halves

Maybe Havili is back? Not sure how long he's out. Ryan Gray is not bad from what I've seen. He's a bigger body who could handle the defensive workload in the middle. Not sure Sullivan could.

Might need to tidy up our defence a tad.

Looking at team stats after 9 rounds - South Sydney have missed the most tackles (355) by a whopping 30 more than the next worst team plus we are also highest for most ineffective tackles (176). We have also made the 3rd most tackles indicating how much defence we have been doing every week.

And weve scored f**kall points, personally id put hubner at 9

Souths biggest problem is they can't win the arm wrestle. Souths are 0 from 9 for the Average Metres per set stat

Souths have done well to win 4 games when they have lost the arm wrestle in all 9 games

Yep. Don't win the collision, get up slower off the ground, get rolled down field in defence but lack roll up field with the ball all too often. Humphreys kicking game got us out of trouble and evened things up for us before he got injured. Since then, we squeaked past the Roosters and been found out ever since.

I keep wishing for Keaon to be played in the middle and told to run hard and not skip before the line. A lot of the forwards are pulling up before the collision and taking the softer option. Aitken & Arrow to edge, Keaon to lock.

I thought our bench forwards looked better than our starters last game. Moale has been good last couple of weeks. Maybe he starts ahead of Keppie who was sluggish against the Knights. Le Blanc was good too. He should stay in the side I hope.

We need a dummy half that knows about the craft. What's the go with Havili? If not him, I don't like the idea of plonking a non-specialist dummy half in there who can dish up a pass but doesn't know the finer arts of the position. I'd rather debut a specialist from reggies personally but we'll see what Wayne decides tomorrow.
