We need to bounce back in this one. The next 2 weeks after Manly will be brutal.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Leota should be a chance of a return too.

Yeah this is an important game.

Leota should be a chance of a return too.

That'll be huge with RCG out. He really stood up this year. Went from a player I didn't like to a player I respected.

He and Kikau are back. Blake too but probably he plays NSW Cup

 

[franklin2323]

Yeah this is an important game.

To be fair he didn't get much gametime it wasn't until the backend of last season he looked like a NRL player

 

[Kilkenny]

CHN likely to miss this week due to his groin injury.

Good. He needs to recover.

I have always respected Leota. A very hard worker at training. I wasn't surprised he kicked on this year before his injury.

I don't see them at training but I'm happy for him. He's locked in as a permanent member of our pack now.

Anyone who's fit is a permanent member at this stage.

Cant wait until we have to make tough choices

Nathan Taylor from the Western Weekender reporting that Leota and Kikau both likely to return. Blake a chance but more likely next week. Also great news that Jarome Luai is fine, trained today.

From NRL Tonight on Fox 1,they reported that the NZ team are stuck in Denver after an electrical storm which has shut down the airport. So a delay for the players in getting back home.

So DWZ, Philips, Peach/Blake, Whare, Crichton, Maloney, Cleary, Tamou, Katoa, Merrin, Yeo, Hetherington, JFH, Egan, Leota, Kikau, Ellis/Lui-Toso/Peach.

 

[OldPanther]

Uate is out for the remainder of the season with a Syndesmosis Injury.

 

[franklin2323]

So DWZ, Philips, Peach/Blake, Whare, Crichton, Maloney, Cleary, Tamou, Katoa, Merrin, Yeo, Hetherington, JFH, Egan, Leota, Kikau, Ellis/Lui-Toso/Peach.

I doubt Blake plays FG this week. NSW Cup play before perfect chance to get a hitout there. I think Lui-Toso will play just the rest of the makeup is to be decided
