Wests Tigers Head Coach Tim Sheens has named a 15 man squad for the NRL trial against Parramatta Eels at Campbelltown Sports Stadium on Saturday, February 19.
Sheens has selected a strong team and will add to the bench after monitoring players in the earlier trial matches.
As part of a feast of footy, 4 matches will be played from 2pm with the NRL trial at 7.30pm. Gates open 1.45pm.
“I will start the game with that 15. I have got to see Balmain, Wests and our U20s all play in earlier trials before we finalise the actual numbers,’’ Sheens said this morning.
“Most sides at this stage are still playing squads of 23-25 players. The extra 10 or whatever I use will just come out of the earlier trials.
“I’m very happy with our preparations outside of having a few too many in recovery. I’m pretty happy with where we are at physically and mentally in getting them ready at this stage of the year.”

[haynemagic]

is he serious.. Sheens is going to right way to losing one of his starting 17 to injury before the season even starts.

I'm just comparing backlines well from 2-7 posts and ours don't even rate. They have an awesome team.

on paper we should get absolutely smashed, and that suits me fine.
