I'd still take a Michael Ennis after 20 weeks on the sideline over Casey McGuire.

all this Ennis talk is speculation.. Brisbane haven't said anything yet about him playing..

Why? Berrigan has been very good at dummy half the last few weeks and Michael Ennis hasn't played a game for about 20 weeks!

ennis is much better than mc guire and will allow berrigan to move into the support playing role he did so well in origin

I'd like to see Brisbane just play a controlled game, keep posession, kick well don't knock the ball on inside their own half..

but knowing Brisbane they will come out 100 miles an hour and try and score on every set and blow about 29389 tries

wouldn't be surprised if St.George win

Just 7 mins till sides are named.

2GB expects both sides to be as per the program while no-one has any idea what the Dragons will do.

We've been playing a finals brand of footy for 3 weeks straight now, nothing much will change tonight but they are going to have to turn it up a notch again to beat the Dragons.

Well against the Warriors last week they didn't come out at full pace.. yeah they were 18-0 up but they were doing things in a controlled way... thats something we've lacked over the past few seasons and I don't want to see them come out tonight and throw the ball around to much.. because its not necessary. Hopefully Perry will settle things down a bit

Hunt out is not that dramatic...would be more concerned if Tate or Hodges were out.
Tupou is a more than adequate replacement for Hunt

well Hunt missing does take a bit of our attacking capability away.. but as for the job of a Winger hes easily replaced

Losing a playmaker certainly is a biggie. As for the Tate call, the way he's playing of late we'd be better off without him at times, at least our wingers would actually see the ball (if they still know what it looks like).

Fair call about Tate, he does tend to try and do it all himself.

The Hunt loss is still big because recently they were playing him in a dangerous Blacklock-style role.
