Dragons need someone for JDB
Dragons are in a bind as JdB is appealing the decision.

So we wont actually be Origin affected for Origin 2 or 3. Unless we don't back up.
Round 14 - Saturday 15th June.
State of Origin 2 - Sunday 23rd June
Round 15 - Sunday 30th June.
Round 16 we have a bye.
State of Origin 3 is July 10th
Round 17 - July 12th
So unless we rest guys agsinst the Titans... Origin won't acrually affect our eligible players. Origin 1 was the only game that did.
Ok so no excuses to give Luai no game time. Play at centre or play reserves makes the most sense.
Just gotta let @Dave's mate know lol.
Aekins will play centre if Naden can’t I think.
I think it extremely unlikely we play Luai at centre in FG, he’s never played the position.
Can anyone who watched the reserve grade game comment on how he went playing centre, especially in D?
He definitely should. Warming a bench does nothing for development.Ah, scratch my earlier post then.
Still I think Luai should be getting game time somewhere.
Gagai and Roberts would be getting a semi reading that team sheet. We couldn't be slower if we had two mannequins superglued to a concrete block playing at centre. Is the idea to get plenty of practice at doing kick offs?Jed went ok at centre last week he was part of the reason chrichton scored 3 tries.He defended well too people need to remember jed started as a centre for the titans then was moved to backrow later on.My only concern would be lack of speed having both yeo and cartwright in the centres together although we would have a big team
As far as being frugal with our salary cap and the way we are fighting our way back to a semi spot, do we really need Peachy?
We've played some depleted sides in poor form. 3 in a row is terrific regardless of that..but we would undoubtedly be better with Peachey here as long as we dont need to lose anyone extra to add him.As far as being frugal with our salary cap and the way we are fighting our way back to a semi spot, do we really need Peachy?

Burns started centre after 5 mins he and Jed switched. Jed was good. Aekins was solid both would handle it well. I'd go Aekins given Roberts is the opposing centre
Roberts will burn Yeo pretty bad.
