Team list Tuesday: Rnd 12 vs Bunnies

[I'm a loser baby...]

His attack is better defence on par watching last weekend.

His defence stats are similar to Blake's career NRL stats so not sure he's on par yet. Obviously he should improve but.

Waqas stats don't tell the full story.

 

[Gazzamatta]

That's because they're better than the alternatives, even when out of form. The salary cap makes sure of that. Do you really think our backups are going that great? Manly's shitty reserve grade side belted them last week.

Marata is probably the only option and he proved he's a damn good option. That'd said hopefully BA has a plan cause Waqa is definitely not improving.

There is always the chance that Waqa could do a knee/ankle/calf/shoulder/pec at training. We need to stay positive.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Is Maka Paka top 30?
Upgraded to replace Hughes?
Poo? Ffs!

I think we need Niukore off the bench rather than centre .... RCG missing ... Hipgrave out ... light on for middles

Lane, carty, lussick bench .... not alot of impact there ... need marata in the middle

There wouldn't be a worse long term starting centre in the game. Atrocious in defence and offers nothing in attack.

 

[Twizzle]

gee a lot of people on social media don't rate Blake, its very rare they all agree on something

You should have heard the cheers from the crowd when he got sin binned on Sunday. It was the highlight of the night.

Na

I think we need Niukore off the bench rather than centre .... RCG missing ... Hipgrave out ... light on for middles

Lane, carty, lussick bench .... not alot of impact there ... need marata in the middle

Nah reckon we could cover the middle with others Greg, stone, lane, pap, junior with long minutes etc etc
Our right edge is horrific and even more frightening against south’s who are have possibly the most potent left edge attack. Waqa’s not the sole problem but he appears he be the biggest problem and
If he plays at right centre then can see a huge score line coming up against us.

Pick your best 17 then worry about positions later. Isnt that what you’ve banged on about for years?

Yep, we need him to help prevent the overlaps he wouldn't be able to stop if he was defending at centre.

We need him back to his best, that's for sure.
