interesting that he has 4 backs on that extended bench

8 players out including 7 forwards ... Lett is the only outside back though and there's a backrower named in the centres.

Against Penrith, Stanley played in the backrow and then later in the game was replaced by Emmett, for a while, before coming back on and shifting Emmett into the centres.

Also Head has been playing hooker and Priddis came back as a lock.

surely we have some forwards worthy of coming up from 20's to fill in for 1 game. we are sitting in 2nd place.

Marketo would be the only one. The other older forwards aren't as talented as the younger forwards and neither groups are ready.

Again have a look at the Penrith game.

It's not a genuine rivalry, it's a forum rivalry borne out of skeepe and to a lesser degree Raider 69's hate of Newcastle.

:lol: Yea thats it mate
Its all us, those poor bloody knights fans, they were just minding their own business and me and skeepe came in and started bullying them! :lol::lol:

Get a grip you poor fool

And FTR, its the definition of the pot calling the kettle black for knights fans to give it to us about our supporters base talking it up about juniors, if anyone in the comp can beat us in this area, its the knights, there is an endless list of blokes they've talked up, and their strike rate is no better or worse then ours. Except ours are better because they actually have talent ;-)

i reckon it's a pretty solid pack. tilse, picker, tongue and harrison are players i'd be happy to see in a knights jersey. the rest i can't really vouch for as i don't take much notice of them when i watch the raiders, although buttriss is a handy hooker too.

the knights are going to have their work cut out for them if canberra play well.

Dont worry mate was only fishing for Skeepe, but in all seriousness taking 2/3 of there best forwards will hurt them.

Does anyone know the updated dogs team or when it will be released? Like when do they re-release the team after they get suspended?

Cheers.

Nope, the coach simply names the replacements when he sees fit. As I understand, we'll probably know Friday who those players are.

Thanks Timmah just had a look on the daily tele 'late mail' and they have TBA for both Goodwin and Eastwoods spot. Gonna be a tough game for the dogs.
Obviously they have to play Utai on the wing and they can use either Gordon, or Winitana in the centres, probably Gordon, he has filled in there good this year and we need big men for this game. Then bring barba onto the bench just incase Holdsworth bring some of last years form back :crazy:
Hopefully he plays how he did against the storm, but he usually fails if he doesnt have much room, and I dont see our forwards dominating this game.

Anyways, GO DOGS if you can win this game you can win any.
