Penrith v Bondi Battlers (Finals Week One)

[BossleyPanther]

I'd move Soro on for next year. Sucks but that's life

Medical retirement

 

[Kilkenny]

Medical retirement

He suffering from a hamstring issue, it is not chronic, and he wants to continue his career.

 

[Chins get the wins]

That’s fine, but our 14 has barely had any NRL minutes lately, so I hope Kenny doesn’t get a cat 1 head knock in the opening exchanges tomorrow night.

we just look unbalanced to me if we get any unfortunate injuries.

Penalties would go down.....

Klein is in charge.

 

[Girds89]

I assume schnieder will come in for eiso

 

[Kilkenny]

I think for us to win tomorrow night, we are going to have to play at our absolute best and get the rub of the green. There 1-5 is arguably much more dynamic than ours, particularly there height advantage, Dylan not being anywhere near 100%, and question marks over Nathan. We have to defend well enough to keep them to less or near enough to 20 to give ourselves a chance. If they score 20 or more it could be a tough night and even without there main half they are very capable of scoring in excess of 20.

100%

 

[Kilkenny]

Wise decision.

 

[kinghippo]

I would much prefer Laurie on the bench, even if he gets no minutes.
We need garner in the second row.
Roosters play a reckless game, chances of someone putting a high shot on are decent.
If Edwards’s or any of the backs get injured or even have to go off for a HIA it could cost us.

 

[Fangs]

If we did keep that big bench who would cover hooker if Kenny went off?

I'm guessing Luai just in attack.

 

[WestyLife]

Definitely a good bench. A back/spine injury Definitely never decided a game.

 

[Kilkenny]

It is not possible to cover every possible negative out come and it applies equally to our opposition.

This game is so close to call, I hope it is not decided by the on field officials or bunker.

I tend to think one side will probably be decisive winners, just praying it will be us.

We are massive favourites and rightfully so.

Trent Toelau gives us halves/hooker covet and garner center. That's as good as you can get. A full bench of middles is poor unless Ivan is worried about forwards specifically for some reason.

Trent is no longer part of the equation

Yeah would be Luai. Garner to defend in backs

Schneider probably comes in
