R5 v Rabbitohs

[N.C.]

So what do we expect for next week?

Does anyone get dropped?

Does anyone come back into the frame?

I don't think we'll see any changes unless Farah rules himself out.

 

[TigersFan101]

With all the injuries, we havnt really got any depth to drop players.

 

[N.C.]

I dunno. I would've thought a couple of young flyers might be ready step into a wing spot if we're not happy with either Brown or Daniela. We could revisit the halfback spot and keep Moltzen as a utility. But other than that there's not a lot left to work with...

Yerp true, maybe give jacob miller a proper shot at halfback?
I still think though moltzen deserves more than one week to prove his worth.

I have not played in the NRL, but I would imagine the step up would be huge, I think we are seeing that in the younger forwards, they were truly wonderful in the first few games, but the grind & intensity appears to be getting to them. So for now, I would stick with experienced players, don't think it is time to panic just yet.

 

[BuffaloRules]

They are going to struggle again no doubt...

Hopefully they can at least get Ellis back...

 

[gronkathon]

We surely can't run Daniella or Moltzen in the centres Vs Soufs

Who would you suggest, the cupboard is a bit empty at the moment? Can only hope Inglis trips over running out & needs to be iced for a few hours?

 

[Jud]

Inglis is starting hit some form, we will need to ensure that he is contained or they could put 50 on us. Provided he is fit, I would love to see Ellis up in his face all game!

Would run Brown at centre. It is the position he plays best in and where he has been most comfortable.

Than throw Latu onto the wing

 

[CMUX]

Tigers played well on Sunday and would have beat a lot of other teams so there is still hope for you guys.

I can only hope you win and give us another lol @ Souths moment!

 

[Tiger Hawk]

Brown certainly seems more switched on at centre or fullback from what I've seen of him. Daniela is nothing more than a park footballer. Moltzen is not a centre.

This would help our cause.

I think i'd prefer to see
1 - Brown
2 - McKinnon
3 - Daniella
4 - Ayshford
5 - Utai

Ayshford would have a better idea how to run off Benji than anyone in the backline at present and benji favours Lawrence's side, so I'd have Ayshford in Lawry's spot.

McKinnon got into some gaps but has Covell-esque pace.

McKinnon got into space because he's always been one of the league's best support players in the middle of the ruck. Him on the wing is mindbogglingly absurd. Daniella did more than enough to get dropped last week, quite possibly permanently. Just my opinion of course.

McKinnon
Sam Latu
Ayshford
Brown
Utai
Marshall
Moltzen

 

[Tigerm]

Anyone thinking of a second rower in at centre, to mark up against Inglis? Someone who can tackle?

Moltzen

Agree with this, but keep Miller on the bench and f**king hook Moltzen if required!
Gibbs to play 2nd row on the right (unless Ellis is back), Heighington on the left.
Galloway, Fifita to start.
Give one of the Shirnacks a start at Lock (or Gibbs, if Ellis is back).
Woods, Payten, Dwyer on the bench...

 

[Tigger Madness]

Fifita and Gibbs to swap positions.

 

[N.C.]

Want a noted defender playing on the right side...
