Kite and King

[The Colonel]

With Leuluai suspended for two games are one or both these guys fit to play this week? I know Kite pulled out of the Country squad but I was unsure re: King.

 

[Mayor_Quimby]

King will play if he pulls up from Friday nights match ok. [-o<

Kite will eb out for 2/3 weeks

 

[The Colonel]

Puts pressure on the forward rotation. Didn't another player also carry injuries out of the Brisbane game? :?

 

[chileman]

Hecks did amigo....some of our PL fellas are going to have to step up for a couple of weeks! Hopefully Glenn Stewart will be back for us soon....

 

[Fluffy]

3 props out in one game would kill any club.

look at the dogs this year

We will do well to stay competetive.

 

[The Colonel]

Will definitely test the depth of the lower grades. Three out makes a huge amount of difference..... #-o

* Williamson can play the full 80 as hooker if needed.
* Curtis can slot into hooker,second row or lock.
* Having Glenn & Curtis on the bench will make the job easier for Beaver & Watmough, who will hopefulyl be backing up from Friday.
* Stephenson isn't 1st grade material yet. Matai is.

 

[The Colonel]

Big ask of King to back up after the City Country game. Did he go off early with an arm injury?

 

[KulaShaker]

* Stephenson isn't 1st grade material yet. Matai is.

Queen of the universe.

Queen of the universe.

Prince maybe?

 

[KulaShaker]

He has long hair..

 

[Fluffy]

cc to say matai is better than steppa is silly - mattai misses more tackles and gives more metres in defence.

 

[Garts]

Matai v Stephenson in my eyes are =

Matai may improve however at the moment I can not separate and I see both as stop gap solutions only.

 

[Fluffy]

i agree garts - each has strengths over the other - the way i see it steppa is a left centre, matai right, hill is a right centre - otherwise it would be the other in.

 

[Garts]

Matai is only young I guess so he could come along in leaps and bounds. I dont mind if he puts egg on my face, not 1 bit!!!!

Yep, I agree with that whole heartedly!

 

[Fluffy]

Garts - steppa is only young (20), i think they are both similar ages.

People talk about steppa like he has played 50 first grade games and is 25.

He has about 15, with 8 off the bench.

He hasnt been around that long.

 

[Garts]

Fluffy I think he is around the same age maybe 1 or 2 years older.

I guess what I meant was Matai may show us more the more game time he gets in 1st grade. Steppa has had more games than Matai and has failed to show a great deal of improvement, Matai may yet develop and prove me wrong. Hope he does!!!
