The list is clearly incorrect.

 

[Old Time Tiger]

Someone help us out then because it is the team listed on the West Tigers site, for Rd 7.
http://www.weststigers.com.au/team-announcement-field

Interesting though that there is an article for 'members exclusive' that states,

Mick Potter exclusively previews this weekend's clash with the Broncos for Wests Tigers Members, revealing a few key changes in the line up.

maybe he just means Thompson and Fulton are the key changes in the forwards and Marshall is back?

 

[Trollhammaren]

The list is clearly incorrect.

Yeah, zero tackle have taken that down. Surely something was awry with our team announced so early.

It's not Marshall is back. Moltzen to 7, Tedesco at 1

 

[Magpie Tragic]

Tedesco at FB, Sironen 5/8, Moltzen 1/2

It sounds to me a really good team with what Potter has to work with.

Bell, Blair & Thompson in the backrow to me shows that Potter is trying to get a big strong pack out there. Our backline isn't small either - Utai comes back to wing and I think he deserves a chance based on his form last year.

The bench is full of forwards and Potter is carrying two extra forwards in case injuries come up.

I suppose the question is how will Moltzen and Sirro go in the halves and if they go well what happens when Benji comes back. To add to that will Tedesco play as well as we all hope he can and secure the fullback spot.

Well, i guess thats the best we can do with the squad we have got. Maybe Moltzen might fire at 1/2. Good to see Ted at FB though. See what happens i guess.
Dont expect a win though, ill be Bris 13+

 

[FootynRacing]

If i could wish for one thing from this game it would be for Tedesco to have a blinder !!! Looking forward to seeing some strong hard and fast kick returns for a change

 

[benched tiger]

Yep,forwards look fine with plenty of options on the bench,however our halves pairing are vital if we are to do anygood.Our outside backs have been ordinary and a liability so not expecting to much this weekend.

The selection of Moltzen at half raises questions about the future of Miller, rather than the form of Moltzen which has been very good. Tedesco is certainly not at fullback because of his performances which must be said at best have been poor. Wait until the Broncos put the first ball in the air.

I wouldn't go as far to say Teddy's form has been poor. Its been as good as I would have expected for him. The next four games will determine his ability at fullback.

What I am curious about is who will take our kicking duties???? Moltzen is not an established kicker and I thought Sironen was more of a supportive kicker? Who is going to be our goal kicker?

However, given our rate with injuries we can expect at least two fresh new injuries. Hopefully these will be with replaceable players.

 

[Syren]

You still have Reddy to kick goals. It's the kicking in general play that will be tested.

 

[FootynRacing]

Will Moltzen kick goals ? I remember him kicking one in the eels trial when Benji and Anasta went off.

“His talk is a big thing time. He will do a lot of directing. We can play an old school game - I can play a 2nd receiver” Curtis Sironen speaking about the role Tim Moltzen will play in the halves on Saturday. Speaking this morning on Sky Sports Radio, Big Sports Breakfast
