Hopefully it's a goood game. We seem to stack up well against the three Peat Premiership winners.
Penrith attack is clunky. We should get them before they click. Eels in a close one.

2023 Minor Premiers and Premiership winners vs 10th place losers ?

Penrith by 28 or that's an embarrassing result.

What were the markets on the Tuesday before our games against them in 2022 and 2023 when they were also premiers?

Gee there has been a lot of crossover of players to have played for both clubs in the past 20-25 years.

Safe to say we have probably had more misses then hits.

Any notable omissions or ones who shouldn't have made the cut - Mick Gordon was unfortunate but couldn't find another Fullback in the past 20-25 years who played for both clubs.

RCG, Hopgood, Brad Drew, Carty, Kevin Kingston, Michael Jennings had performed too well at Parramatta to be included in this side.

1 - Michael Gordon
2 - George Jennings
3 - Paul Whatuira
4 - Waqa Blake
5 - Etu Uaisele
6 - Jaeman Salmon
7 - Will Smith
8 - Suaia Matagi
9 - Mitch Rein
10 - Shane Shackleton
11 - Lee Hopkins
12 - Frank Pritchard
13 - Joseph Paulo

I think the penny's will get us.

Past 10 matches we have played them since 2020 the 4 times we have beaten them we have actually lost the game before.

And conversely the 6 times we have lost to them we have won the week before.

Seeing as we won last week history suggests we only beat Penrith when coming off a loss.

Matt Adamson (started with us as a winger/fullback)

Timana Tahu (short lived at Penrith)

Is Emu fit.. that's one interesting one and the other is if Moses is fit.

 

[Pazza]

100%. Obligatory swap of Paulo for Ofahengaue prior to kick off.

I didnt even realise Tahu played for Penrith. Must have been shorter then TPJ penrith's stint.

He is too good to make that side anyway i think Paul Whatuira & Waqa Blake deserve there place in the centres after there stellar performances in the Blue & Gold jersey.

do you think we will see rcg coming off the bench at some point?

 

[The Colonel]

Not sure. I feel that he can bust out long minutes and is more suited to starting whereas Paulo can be effective starting or off the bench. Ofa or Emu starting to allow Paulo off the bench appears more effective.
