At full strength i don't see a spot for Tighe or Elford.
Lewis, Blair, Emilio, Gordon and Cooper should be ahead of them for the centres, and Gordon, Tia Kilifi, Daniela, Coote and Randall should be ahead for the wing.
I agree but its a only a trial and Elford needs some match prep.
Elford doesnt have the speed anymore, Id be bringing him into the centres to use his ball skills.
Tighe did some good things last year, more than I expected anyway.
I saw enough of Coote to protect him from trials, but Sammut is just as important. I wouldnt play Peanuts either atm, too big a loss if he gets injured. Ordinary backs find him a real handful to tackle one-on-one.
The signs are not so good so far this year, a lot of teams are manning up....so if its going to be tough, the Penrith players better bloody turn up and be fair dinkum.
Already there is some stupid brawl fracas. I dont even want to read about it.
Just for one year, the players should get their heads out of their backsides and play like fugging professionals for the whole year.
Thats not too much to ask for.
No more park footy performances. And Lewis better not die like a dog like he did last year after he was signed. That was bloody disgraceful.
Elliot is going out backwards and if some of the players are going to play like imposters, he should take a few of them with him.
And then Id start on the recruitment staff. They arent delievering much...a male cheeleader was your biggest signing this year. FMD!
