Tep has played 2 games for Wenty now and he has clearly been sent there to work on aspects of his game. Do you think that BA is grooming his for a move to the middle ? How do you see Tep evolving to in 2016 ? I see a merkin from TheFilthySpammers reckons that BA has marked him down as a prop.

Well that doesn't really correlate with him playing on the edge at Wenty then

How is Adam Quinlan going? We signed him amid some hype that he has a lot of speed and good hands, good support play, etc. Is he injured or just not doing much? I've seldom heard his name in dispatches.

I wasn't out there today mate. Will have to wait for Stagger or Obscene Assassin to chime in.

Didn't go mate couldn't tell you I'm sorry..

He's showed glimpses of talent and has been injured for a few weeks too so I wouldn't consider him at this stage...

Expect one change to the team that threw away the game against the Knights with Danny Howard replacing Joseph Ualesi.

Ryan Morgan and Vai Toutai to play in the centres with Ben Crooks and Fabian Goodall on the flanks. Pauli will be named at prop again but is yet to play there despite the numerical designation with Ualesi and he switching places during the last two games. In the absence of Ualesi it will be interesting to see just how Pauli is utilised.

Tepai will continue to play backrow for the Magpies.

Two utilities on the bench again...

We had a hard fought game against the Tigers in Round 2 where we copped a hammering from the refs before the Tigers ran away with match in the final ten minutes. There is a possibility that there might be a late inclusion for Wenty from the NRL team (due to the naming of a 18 man squad) but given that the squad is playing in Brisbane the day before the NSW Cup game Wenty may just make do with their named team.

Now that Ualesi is out, Forty, it looks like Pauli might have to play in the middle - Danny Howard isn't strong enough to play there. An alternative is for Moeroa to begin his alleged shift into the middle.

I don't see the need for Sef and IDG both on the bench, its a pretty small bench for mine.

One should go.

I like what BA has done to date, but this ain't the early 2000's and he ain't BS. Not sure why we need to carry the two either. On Sunday we could of potentionally been Down two props, had Gower not toughed it out. Not sure carrying the two is benefiting the team. We are giving away size and power.

It's not really a size issue. Seffa is 106kg. It's more about their footballing philosophy and social skills. I'd chuck IDG. Seffa can cover a few positions if needed.
