Rd 20 v Dolphins

[Blade23]

They will see how they pull up after Origin before making a call. I think at the moment there is a preference for caution.

 

[Kilkenny]

I’m sure they will all be named tomorrow and then it will be wait and see. I’m happy with whatever the coaching staff decide, pending how they pull up I guess. I hear the Brisbane contingent of our supporters group are none to happy, not able to get tickets for the game apparently.

 

[Kilkenny]

I tend to think this a game not to take lightly.

If our SOO players come out unscathed then they should play in my opinion.

Things are pretty tight at the top and every win post origin just puts us in a better position to secure
a top four position.

As long as they are fit, healthy an no niggles just pick the best side available.

 

[Stinkfinger]

Not so fun fact: Nathan lost his 1st game, 50th game, and 100th game (the 2020 gf)

Won the 16 before and 17 after the 100th.

Some pretty poor selections but I doubt this named side means anything

 

[MugaB]

Hmm, if he only plays 35 minutes he will probably run home after the game so he can get a proper workout......

Run forrest RUNN!!!

If no origin players with them all rested then I think maybe:

Edwards
McLean
Peachy
Tago
Turuva
Luai
Cleary
Fisher-Harris
Kenny
Leota
Hosking
Sorensen
Eisenhuth

Cogger
Garner
Smith
Salmon

Subs arent very good tho,
Need two middles, and probably a hooker, and since there's no peach as he is in the centres, soni luke trumps Cogger..
A game like this we could very easily drop if we don't have the right cover... bench should be Luke, Smith Sorrenson, and Salmon, have Garner or Chris Smith start on the edge, use Sorrenson as that 4th middle with lindsay Smith

Luke was dropped for a reason and hasn't earned his way back

Looks like Spencer won’t play origin, so he will be on bench and that would shore it up instantly with Leniu Smith Salmon Cogger. I’m drawn to Cogs as a 14, I think he has upside and can play dummy half if needed.

I’m of the view we need to pick a side that gives us the best chance of securing a crucial two points. Of our SOO players if they come out of SOO with no injuries, fatigue or any other issue then they should play. No time to take anything for granted, this is when the competition starts in earnest, we are in a really good position and no time for slip ups.

Looks more like you want to win as a fan as we all do. A loss here doesn't diminish the chance of a premiership but overuse injuries certainly will.

Injuries can happen in training, in your kitchen or just about anywhere else.

Were talking about elite players here, the best of the best.

Four day turnaround, we’ve enjoyed three byes already, if there good to go I’d play them.

A full 7 day turnaround before the game against the Dogs at home, if there there capable of backing up I‘d play them.

 

[John Hamblin]

I think we win by 20 plus points. The dolphins have done well but some of their forwards are in the twilight of their careers and not too mobile. Just play up tempo and run them off their feet.

They have performed beyond expectations, this is no game to take them lightly, particularly off the back of a win.

The competition really does start now, so even with four, perhaps five players backing up, they are more than capable which is why they are SOO players in the first place.

The key is locking up a spot in the top four, which is why we need to ensure we get the two points against the Dolphins. One more two points.

 

[Bred not Bought]

I would be resting Yeo and maybe To'o.
Wouldn't risk Cleary unless he is 100% either.

 

[penrithfrank]

Best side possible hopefully build a lead ... then rotate bench .. 2 points is the key don't need to be chasing a victory ... seal it early
