Being 1 to 17 is cool. But you would think DWZ and Maloney would be less than 100% fit.

Seems insane to go in with 2 spine players under injury clouds when Luai could cover either of them. I disagree with taking the risk, but if we want to why wouldnt we drop Peachey and have Luai on the bench? Give us cover.

No way either of them are 100%.

I want to see Jerome again but Peachey isn't going to play origin and then get dropped for a rookie, that isn't a good message to be sending to our squad and doing something like that has potential to upset the squad. Peach can provide the cover and is a better player right now.

Im guessing Dallin is 100 percent fit because we don't have many FB options if he goes down. Maloney would be the only concern at this point and probably a small one or Jerome wouldn't be flying home.

They must be pretty certain everyone will be good to go.
The plan ( although I don’t like it) must be Whare as the fullback option with peachy moving to the centres, and peachy the 5/8 option if Maloney is out.
Very strange that luai is heading home though. A lot can happen between now and kick off.

Maloney would be fine. DWZ is the risk. I guess with Peachey on the bench gives options if he goes off

Tyrone May covers more positions. Is a better 18th man

But all of the options Peachey provides arr pretty shit

Whare pushes to fullback. Blake moves to right centre. Peachey at left. Or worse Peachey plays right which I don't recall him doing for us

Or Peachey plays 6.

Luai could come straight in for either with no shuffle at all, and would be better than Whare at fullback or Peachey at 6.

Granted that's only if either player can't get through the game. But if there's any doubt at all Luai and May are better utility options.
