So it seems we will be missing the following players this week. Hayne, e.tonga, loko, smith.

1. Sio
2. Burt
3. Morgan
4. W. Tonga
5. Blair
6. Roberts
7. Sandow
8. Mannah
9. Mk
10. Allgood
11. Hindy
12. Paulo
13. Maitua
14. McGuire
15. Moi moi
16. Poore
17. Shackleton

I don't think sk will do huge changes. We don't seem to have much else in the backs.

Here's my guess from another thread... it's not looking pretty against the Panthers side imo :(

Maybe for this week:
1. Sio (would be Hayne when fit)
2. ? Burt (would be Sio when Hayne fit, with Burt maybe in 14?)
3. ? Morgan (or Esi Tonga if fit, though personally I'd stick with Morgan)
4. W. Tonga
5. Blair
6. Roberts
7. Sandow
8. Mannah
9. ? Keating (no other options this year)
10. Allgood (or a swap with Moimoi or Poore for variety)
11. Hindmarsh
12. ? Lasalo (seems to always be first choice against other backrowers)
13. Maitua

14. ? Maguire (could be Burt as an alternate dummy half/playmaker when Hayne fit, leaving Keating on as a tackling lock?)
15. Moimoi (or a swap with Allgood for variety)
16. Poore (or a swap with Allgood for variety)
17. ? Paulo/Horo/Shackleton/Tautai (but something in our back row rotations just isn't right this season either, and imo O'Hanlon is still some time away from being a top 17 level player)
Long term injured: Loko (would be worth a try in the centres alongside Willie), B Smith (would come into the starting side for Lasalo)

If its wet hayne won't play

If its dry they will probably give hayne every chance up until kickoff of making a return I reckon

do we have anything at all ready to step in .... from reports, wenty got slaughtered

it'll be much the same - if not exactly the same .... only guys returning from injury are a chance for changes I think

Picking Luke Burt - on the wing of all places - was weak as piss from Kearney. If he's going to bow to fan pressure like that he's giving away responsibility for the team's performances. Then he's giving away his right to coach the team.

If Hayne is out, I think Mullaney deserves a shot. At least it will give us the prospect of some punch from the back with the ball

The Panthers got a touch up from the Rabbitohs out at Penrith today.

So what chance do the Panthers have away from home. We're specials!

If KEARNEY makes no changes do we have to accept thats all weve got and thats our best team, disregarding injuries. I beleive if he makes no changes he is accepting mediocaracy at its best!! And rewarding players who dont puy in and have no pride or guts! Give me someone who plays for 80 minutes, tries their hearts out out and if we lose I can wear it but not the crap we saw Saturday night FFS!!!!!!!!!!:x

No need for big changes...
Do we realy need to hit panic button yet? Id look at the shack -any news on how he has been playing? Much prefer him at this stage than POH or Lassalo.
Burts defense for that first try was gee unforgivable.If Haynes back send burt back to wenty.
Moi Moi takes POH's spot.Perhaps pauolo for Lassalo and shacks for Lassalo or mcguire who i dont think offers anything more than MK who can play 80 mins

This game will really test which of the teams can bounce back. Which of the coaches can get the best out of their squads following a loss. I hope it's us...

Do we have a date on that yet? ;-)
