Winterstein? How much 1st grade experience has he as I've never heard of him?

150 games. Probably has a 3 or 4 second highlight vid on youtube somewhere.

I've just edited my post. Spotted it on SMH...nothing on NRL tonight.

Frank Winterstein

There is nearly a "Frankenstein" in that name.

Peni Terepo stood down by the Eels for getting on the piss on a flight to Auckland.
With Mau also out and Paulo racing the clock to be fit we should have an advantage in the forwards.

PENRITH

Team: 1. Dylan Edwards 2. Josh Mansour 3. Waqa Blake 4. Dean Whare 5. Dallin Watene-Zelezniak 6. James Maloney 7. Nathan Cleary 8. James Tamou 9. Sione Katoa 10. Reagan Campbell-Gillard 11. Jack Hetherington 12. Isaah Yeo 13. James Fisher-Harris. Interchange: 14. Wayde Egan 15. Tim Grant 16. Kaide Ellis 17 Hame Sele/Moses Leota

Comment: The Panthers lost star young forward Viliame Kikau (knee — expected to return round 3-5) to injury during the trials and the man tipped to replace him on an edge is Jack Hetherington. The backline looks settled with Dylan Edwards returning to fullback after his season was cut short in round eight last year due to a shoulder injury. Sione Katoa looks to have beaten Wayde Egan to the starting role at number nine. Jarome Luai may push Egan for a bench spot. Dallin Watene-Zelezniak must prove hit fitness.

If anything Kaide Ellis and Tim Grant should battling it out for the last spot. Leaota should be a walk in for the 17.

Down to single seats in reserved areas. Good weather dry and not hot so as the week goes on should sell out

The article on Nrl.com on Winterstein signing says Luai and Grant did Ballwork with NSW Cup. That is an indication of the bench there

The only reason Penrith stand a chance is cause they playing a injury ravaged side if we were full strength we would blow Penrith of the Park

That would be a very disappointing crowd indeed. The same game in the same round last year, also a FTA game, got 21,500 on a very hot afternoon. They are predicting 28 this Sunday, possible shower.

Manu Ma'u out = Kikau out.
Terepo out = May out.
Paulo doubtful = DWZ doubtful.
Any others?

That’s our 3 best forwards missing and there are a couple of other players in doubt l’ll have to wait and see our team list this afternoon
