Hopefully another two points against the Sea Eagles, no injuries leading into the big game against the Raiders on the following Friday night. Well have a full seven day break, while the Raiders backing up from a tough Saturday night game against the Titans up there.

I think it is really crucial to secure the two points this week in a game we should win comfortably, although I never take anything for granted.

We have a really tough game the following week against the Raiders. I really like the look of the Raiders even though they lost a tough one on the weekend. They have tremendous depth, really no weekness at all.

I don’t think I’ve seen a forum user craving so much attention as the bloke .
Even posted dribble on the Raiders section about some family following them or something .

Going to spend the entire day praying may isn't at fullback. Anyone else want Staines even if it isn't the most likely or practical due to available replacements?

Naden & Jennings are still suspended due to NSW Cup having a BYE last wk...

Yep which is why I said not practical for Staines due to the issue of replacements. Burton can play left centre for Crichton. But damn I'd like to see it anyway lol.

The way this concussion stuff is going I would've rested Nathan again this week if Edwards didnt get hurt. If a player gets more than one knock in a month now it becomes a big issue.

I wouldn't slash my wrists if he's named there. It's likely to change. Most likely final lineup of Crichton at 1, Burton at centre and May at 14. If we're in control May might give Nathan an early mark which perhaps might mean May gives Kenny a rest after 30 or so, if that doesn't mess up the rotation of the middles.

Regardless of who is named in the 1. Doesn't mean they line up there. Kenny isn't an 80 min hooker. So May will be on the bench. Sometimes Ivan thinks he is being tricky by late changes

Absolutely. I said earlier he thinks he's the QLD origin coach. Of course he's also conservative enough to say it worked last week and maybe go with May as well. I'm just having an irrational teamlist Tuesday moment.

Yeah Crichton fullback, Burton centre makes the most sense. I would just love to see what Staines could do in his natural position. The club clearly sees something in him re-signing him and losing Laurie/Mansour for it.

Depends on the player. I don't remember him having one before and if he passed his tests after the Dogs game it can't of been that bad

The NRL Casualy Ward site shows them as available for this round but that's obviously incorrect. The reserve grade bye came at a bad time.

Brandy was thinking that would be the way it would go. Plenty of time for Staines to get a go back there no rush with him
