I hope not (atkins)... we need at least one centre who can defend out there. Don't want to see Smith in the back row.

Would like to see Rogers get another show... any news on Webb Jodeci?

We have a few injuries, and our third string backline looks like one of the best we have had all year.

Would rather have Maguire and Webb hold their places in the named 17.... we will struggle against the Storm without them. And our third string backline might look good, but not be up to 1st grade standard yet.

Webb more then likely to be playing at Ringrose Today.

Thanks for the info Jodeci.

Looking forward to seeing Loko debut!

Interesting about Carl Webb, still a little under done at the moment, maybe?

or maybe Shackleton, Fui, Mannah and Allgood are going better, but gee not a bad problem to have - competition for spots

Fui, Mannah and Webb all play the same role. You only really want two in the team.

The other role is played by Shack, Allgood and Poore (and Hindy). You need two of them in the side as well (at front row, so Hindy doesn't count if he's playing back-row).

Mannah could play the supporting role but what a waste. He's one of the best yardage props in the game at the moment.

I think no matter who plays for us today, we will put up a good fight (we have aways done so against the good sides over the last 10-12 years - no matter which coach we had) but the Storm will be too good for us down there.

I can't believe all this talk about the lack of props for NSW by the media and they rarely talk about Mannah and the great form he has shown this year. Definitely forgotten by some in the media but I expect him to be picked for NSW
