Rd.12 v’s Knights (must win)

[Luke Bowden]

The clubs used to drop their line ups on their own and they'd come out at slightly different times.

Oh gotcha, so the nrl release them all now. I didn’t realise.

 

[Chins]

Can you bet on 60+ tackles. Henry is in for a busy night even if he does get burned on the outside a few times. What was it, 75 tackles last time he started on the edge?

Lucas is a good player will be interesting if they are in the same side

 

[Girds89]

Cant run cole and sommo on the bench. Riki wont have the legs to play big mins.

Id like to see lipowicz come in for cole.

Kenny needs to play the 80 and cole can play 30 odd at lock.

Rotate the 2 props and 2nd rowers as much as we can to keep fresh legs out there.

We need a huge game from laurie, talagi, tago, almonti and casey in attack.

Forwards need to be error free. If let dumb penalties away or get dominated in field position they will run up a score i think.

Cole Centre, Tago 2nd Row?

 

[Chins]

Cole Centre, Tago 2nd Row?

Risky given Tago has just shown some form for the first time in ages but I'd go it

 

[maple_69]

Or Jenkins centre, Jesse onto the wing.

 

[Fangs]

Or Jenkins centre, Jesse onto the wing.

I think we've only seen Jenkins at left centre once this year? Against Souths.

Of the combinations we have available its the one I'd like to see a bit more of.

 

[Panfa]

I reckon eisenhuth will go to lock with smith moving to prop to start the game.I don't think we need sommerton on the bench we need another forward.Cole is enough he can cover outside back injuries or play lock or hooker.I wouldn't mind seeing alamoti to centre with tago and have McLean on the wing.

 

[Stinkfinger]

If Belinda Sharp is the referee WHY our game . She seems to look for a reasons to give penalties and not let the game flow. When one side gets a glut of penalties it makes it very difficult for the other team to get any momentum eg the Manly Panthers game a few weeks ago. I hope I am wrong!!

9-1 penalties/six agains in the first half of that one.

 

[Aliceinwonderland]

Not at all confident about this game.

Knight are desperate for a win too.

Ivan can't leave the bench as it surely. Far too light.

Hassett in the extended squad thinking he possibly comes in for Jack Cole.

I could be very wrong.

We really need a win, or season is getting into the 'grave danger' mode.

 

[Murraymob1]

Can't wait to watch Schneider completely outplay Cogger. It's going to be fantastic in here

The 2 players even you chins could beat in a race .Real reverting viewings chins

Anyone local to Bathurst?
How much rain?
If anything like Mid North Coast or Sydney we got ourselves another wet weather game.
Good or bad for us?

 

[Panfa]

I dont know why people calling for cole to be dropped off the bench,there's more chance of a back going down injured than a forward id be cutting sommerton.

The player in question is Luke Garner.

 

[maple_69]

I'm fine seeing what Jack can do with the 14. If Schneider is scrubbing it up, he can go into 7 and see if he can recreate the performance and combo he/Talagi put on against Melbourne with Schneider sliding to hooker & Kenny lock for a bit. If things are going ok, what can he do in a stint at hooker or lock?

Definitely think we need another forward on the bench. Eisenhuth, Patea, Leota & Dias shouldn't be more than 40 minute players. Kenny only needs to spell Smith for 15 or so. Who gives Henry/Riki a break? You really need to get each off for 15-20 mins. I don't doubt Henry has the motor for 80 but I'd much rather Lipowicz have a trundle and then have the starters back on in the last 10 to close it out. These guys are not seasoned like Sorenson/Garner/Martin/Papali'i.

They are huge odds.

After watching them last week it's hard to see where their points come from. And that was with Ponga.
Best,Marzhew and Safiti are all out as well.

Penriths side is also very weak but I think can still get the job done. It's a must win I feel if are any chance of a top 8 surge

Sharpe is the danger, the good young fullback and the disgraceful ref

This year, our defence worries me - against any team. Substantial weaker side this week.

I would feel more confident if Papali’i and Garner were playing. Our bench worries me this week. I can see Henry and Smith playing too many minutes. Knights are horrible but we lost to Souffs earlier this year. Plus every side lifts against us- even the bum sides.

If we are defensively solid and can bag at least 3 tries, that should be enough this week.
