This week is such an important game. It's an absolute must win. As is the following one versus the Knights. We've got a ton of players looking good to be back too which is great news.

I'd like to see:

1. Wesser
2. Rooney
3. Jennings
4. Tighe
5. Gordon
6. Blair (Graham just isn't ready. If Rooney is out Blair goes to centre, Tighe to wing, Graham comes in)
7. Lewis
8. Petero
9. Priddis (Please be back this week!)
10. Puletua
11. Pritchard
12. Waterhouse
13. Smith

14. Masada
15. Rodney
16. Woolnough (If he can't go, then Grant)
17. Moors

I thought Coote had a good game but he didn't do enough to take Wessers who's been pretty good this year. Iosefa hasn't really been as great as I thought he'd be yet. I think alot of people underestimated how big a jump it is from JB to 1st Grade.

We've really missed Priddis while he's been out. Just having him on deck for the Broncos game would have made the difference between a win and loss.

Getting Man of the Match isn't enough to unseat Wesser?

When is the last time Wesser got man of the match?

1.Coote
2.Gordon
3.Blair
4.Jennings
5.Tighe
6.Graham
7.Lewis
8.Puletua
9.Iosefa
10.Grant
11.Pritchard
12.Waterhouse
13.Smith
14.Moors
15.Woolnough
16.Aiton
17.Bell

Rest Petero this week after origin. I would keep Graham in the side as he will get better every week. Grant has earned a starting berth with a very strong showing against the Broncos. Moors to come on as an impact 2nd rower not a prop. Gordon to kick for goal.

Do you really believe Coote was the best player on the night? I thought Jennings did far more with less ball. Coote gave it his all but I don't think he was man of the match.

Wade Graham played alright without being spectacular. A few good kicks and definitely an improvement but I just don't think he's ready for FG.

And as for Coote getting every ball on the full remember Broncos have no halves or kickers. Wesser would of likely done the same.

1. Lachlan Coote
2. Michael Gordon
3. Michael Jennings
4. Maurice Blair
5. Brad Tighe
6. Jarrod Sammut
7. Wade Graham
8. Junior Moors
9. Masada Iosfea
10. Petero Civoniceva
11. Frank Pritchard
12. Trent Waterhouse
13. Nathan Smith
14. Luke Lewis
15. Tony Puletua
16. Matt Bell
17. Shane Rodney

Lachlan Coote was sensational on Friday night, and looked 100 times safer then Rhys Wesser has ever looked. He is full of confidence and will only improve. Plus Rhys Wesser needs to heal properly.

Jarrod Sammut has to be a permanent fixture in our halves. Matt Elliott needs to f*cking get over himself. Let Wade Graham run things the way Matt Elliott wants, and Jarrod Sammut can offer some variety in attack from 5/8.

Junior Moors was sensational and deserves a starting position. Reward him for a job well done. Plus i think our team would be much better if one of Petero/T. Puletua was always on the field. So they can sub for each other.

Masada Iosefa should play hooker for 80 minutes. Until Luke Priddis is back, there's no point having another hooker in the team IMO. Keith Peters and Paul Aiton just limit our attack. Let Luke Lewis fill the utility role on the bench.

I can't beleive there are people here who actually think we should go back to the lewis/blair halves combo. When Graham was doing the kicking on friday nights our options (not to mention the quality of the kicks) were significantly better than at any time this year.
