Round One v Melbourne

[Chins get the wins]

Ivan was surely just giving Huth and Peach a nice little career moment in England.

 

[Michael Matral]

We are talking Ivan. He will probably play Peach in the centres for a few weeks with May on the wing.

Totally

Unless you are playing Peach as a hooker as well. You are better off with a centre who is big enough to play backrow in that role.

That allows you to run a hooker/half and 2 middles on the bench

 

[Hooked]

We could be without Kenny too.

 

[Hooked]

He is the sort of player who is safe without being flashy.

Turuva only play 66 mins
Leota 38mins - normally 50 mins
Garner 59 mins - spot on for that edge forw

Bench played

Peachey 14 - Turuva doesn't get hurt. Maybe he doesn't get on

Smith - 47 . That is about his number

Henry - 16
Eisenhuth - 27

Those guys for those minutes aren't suitable for that role

Leota rarely plays 50 minutes. Averaged 41 last year. Has occasional games in the high 40's but they are rare.

Bench was crap though. I am never a fan of 3 middles on the bench.

I think we missed a trick not playing Schneider.

 

[Hooked]

He done nothing this morning, sorrenson is fit we win, luai is fit we win, schnider plays instead of cole, we win, lauire instead of peach, we win, basically we are relying on average run of the mill players to fill our gaps...
Sorry im just dirty on the whole event, but in reality Ivan does know best, and I'm humbly knowing he is giving the young guys a run without cost us premiership points, so im ok knowing he has planned this out

Crichton plays we win.

Crichton plays we win.

He's not at the club so means nothing.
A decent 14 and a better bench prop for Huth however changes a lot

I will concede that. Sorro probably takes the 60 mins Garner played

Kenny
Martin
Yeo

Still play 80, you are only looking for maybe 30 mins between 2 guys

Hasn't stopped you in the past from saying we win by more with Api!

I wouldn’t be against Leota off bench to play Leniu role in some games. Melb could be one of those.

Hopefully Ivan is open to Soro off the bench too. It's not a demotion

We stupidly had no trials, Match fitness wise 20-30 mins to ease back makes sense

 

[Black Panther]

Surely we can’t pick Eiso or Peachey. Not saying the aren’t good players, but we have better.

 

[ColdWetPanther]

Solid defensively but did nothing but try and run the ball.

I thought he did well given the speed of the ruck; poked his nose through a number of times which could have led to breaks in a more open game.

He has moved in and out of the halves so lost that instinct maybe but he should of been taking over instead of Fish running it on the last

Not sure we do yet. We will have but NSW Cup have been very ordinary the last 2 weeks. Sorro back helps push out Eiso and I think we need halves coverage in a 14.

So it likely happens but we are a month or so away before the guys under will get the call up

 

[Luke Bowden]

Jesse McLean should come in for Tito.

 

[MugaB]

Jesse McLean should come in for Tito.

Thats a big if he is out, i read somewhere he here is ok, but yeah sure play him against the storm
