It would be a mistake to rest Paulo right now considering how many injuries we have in the forwards at the moment.

If you don't rest Paulo and others you could risk more injuries. You have to manage your players. How do we get them peaking for the semis and not carrying bags of niggles ? It would be a shame to go into the semis all busted up. Storm and Roosters have a history of resting when needed.

Huge if true

I love Junior Paulo - but at this stage, I would say that RCG is a more integral part of our pack than Junior.

And I'm not criticising Junior - he has been brilliant.

Matterson is a big, big loss - but Niukore has been on fire, and will cover for him nicely.

Moses
Matterson
Evans
Ferguson
Kaufusi

And possibly Paulo out.

I was mildly confident going into this game, but were no f**king chance now.

Manly to rack up a big score.

We are just hearing that another one of our forwards has gone down with an injury. We are now having to play Davey who is seemingly our last choice edge forward. I don’t think this is the week to be resting any of our starting players considering our lack of depth available. This isn’t like the Storm giving Slater and Cronk a rest in the last week of the regular season because they already have their place wrapped up. We still need to win games.

I actually feel like our biggest risk in this game would be complacency. Having half our top 17 missing should eliminate that.

If Moses was playing I wouldn’t feel so worried. Without his kicking game though we need to rely on our go forwards from our forwards and outside backs. Ferguson home loses us a good metre eater but luckily we still have most of our starting pack playing. Our bench is very worrisome though, which is why we need Paulo in this game.
