1. Fitzhenry

3. Lawrence
4. Daniela
5. Ryan
6. Marshall
7. Lui
8. Gibbs
9. Farah
10. Galloway
11. Payten
12. Ellis
13. Heighington
14. Fifita
15. Moors
16. Flanagan
17. Brown

I've seen worse.

*Edit - this is not the official team, it is N.C. doing a bit of Soothsaying.

Given Kimmorley will kick to corners all night, and away from players, I'd probably like to see Ryan at Fullback.

Looks really good, more so if Galloway stars.

The only reason we should lose this week is lack of preperation, enthusiasm or lack of execution. Sheens has picked a team more than capable of beating the Dogs by 20. We'll wait and see what the day brings.

I just hope Marhall & Co stick to a game plan and forget the Warriors game, especially if its raining.

Why no McKinnon and Fitz to the bench?

I read somewhere that McKinnon's got a bad hammy, and they reckon he'll be right after the bye. Strangely I can now find no reference to it... I wont argue if he lines up next week and Fitzy goes to the bench. Nor would I argue if Fitzy went back to park footy...

I don't think dwyer will be left out of the team for as long as he is fit. Hands down he hits the hardest in defence and is up there as one of the hardest runners of the ball. (I'm half expecting the idiots that said fifita was too raw for first grade to step in and call for dwyer to be dropped to premier league to 'develop')

Fifita is going great this year.

He just needs to work on his endurance imo.

I really think its time for Sheens to stop backing eachway and picking a outside back on the bench. Flanagan and Ellis can both play in the backs at a pinch. Time to beef up the forwards, it would be criminal to see Brown getting a moon tan on the bench and see the likes of Moors or Dwyer heading back to the Reggies comp and of course if you are going to persist with the caper, at least pick a back that has some impact ability like Tomato. A player that might be able to get the team out of a hole if need be. At present it sends out negative vibes, but I have a gut feeling nothing is going to change. Sheens dosnt change things when we are getting dusted so highly unlikely he will change things after two wins

Yeah but picking another forward on the bench so you can't play Brown for 3-5 minutes at the tail end of the game is hardly changing things...

Yep, Fifita is definitely a plodder eh westie....? Time to bring back Paterson?

Tell you what sweet heart. I'll give you a chance to find a quote about me thinking anything of Pillow other than he would be a much better player in the second row before I start on you.

Fifita is a plodder. The bloke simply refuses to take hit ups when we are under the pump. This is all well and good if we've got a full catalogue of big boys, but this never happens. The guy didn't take a single hit up in the first 10 minutes of the Bulldogs game as a starting prop. In this time Fulton had gone full steam into the defence at least 3 times. This is embarrassing at best.

Luckily Gibbs took on his workload for him, or we'd have been embarrassed. I reckon he would be the only prop in first grade EVER, to not take a hit up in the first 10.

Skando would be a better option than Brown.....every one else can see it bar sheens....

Not a plodder- he is still a kid though.... can't define him by one game.

It was in the post game press conf- Sheensy said he had a bad hammy and would be out for a couple of weeks....

I can handle my players taking their time or being soft in any other position than the front row.

Edit: Having watched Moltzen, add fullback to that
