Round 3 Team List vs Roosters (Friday Night Football)

[Soren Lorenson]

I do like Salmon at 14.

 

[Bazal]

I do like Salmon at 14.

I'd prefer him at centre and Taka at Ringrose tbh.

But he's a huge step up from Will Smith

 

[Soren Lorenson]

I would also be happy with Taka at 14 if it meant no Smith on the bench.

I like the look of that 1-17.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

So mcilwrick is obviously a backup and not depth? Or depth and not a backup? He's definitely not an interchange

 

[Eelogical]

I like the look of that team that's made up of youth and experience without a merkin in sight.

Might depend on how Mahoney is going and where Salmon fits?

He's probably genuine depth, but with Mahoney going well right now we don't necessarily need a genuine hooker on the bench. But if Salmon was needed at 6 or in the centres, or if Mahoney starts to struggle under the weight of weeks of big game time, it might be that McIlwrick comes in.

Personally I think we'll see him in the 21 after a couple of weeks with Wenty.

 

[Eelogical]

Davey must have a liking for those chip rolls at Ringhole Pk.

 

[Stevie]

Anyone think Kafusi or Peni might jump in before game day?
Am I old fashion in thinking I want 4 forwards on the bench?

Might be a good game to keep Evans on the bench. JWH might fire him up. Would be a shame of Gower is hooked.

Anything is possible but Salmons efforts last week should continue to be rewarded I reckon. I thought he was great and certainly better than what W Smith offered both last week and last year.

[Noise]

Cronk and Friend rushed back in out of panic to play the 2nd place Eels. Probably

 

[Soren Lorenson]

You're either a massive star or a nuffy in that team. Except for Vradley, who I actually quite like.

But the death riders kept telling us that successful clubs like the Roosters have quality all through the squad!

Well, in fairness, there's only 3 nuffies

Just to prove another Cheifly Scoop wrong.

Lamb and Lam? I hope if they both got a game the commentators pronounce their names correctly.

Hard to f**k 'Brock' up... 'Lachlan' can be tricky, I'll grant you that

 

[Dibs]

I do like Salmon at 14.

I was much older before I liked salmon
