... also reports of Ellis being back in the country and ready to take the field again - a straight swap for Fulton, or a complete reshuffle?

 

[Magpies Forever]

Side does not instill much confidence for a win vs Bennett's Dragons. I hope we do win, but geez, it will be a big call on the guys to rise to the occasion and pull their fingers out.

 

[Perth Tiger]

The important thing this week will be the attutide rather than actually who runs out on the field.

With the right frame of mind that team can challenge the Dragons with their rep players backing up.

If we turn up the same as the last two weeks it wont matter who is on the field as they will put 60 past us

 

[b.bear]

surely this team is not final what about lote and gareth

 

[Vic Mackey]

pretty sure ellis will play, lotes probably a 50/50.

even with those 2 in i dont give us much chance.

Put Ellis in for Fulton & that is our full strength pack, isn't it?
Fulton to the bench for MM? I am assuming Payten will not come back?
Put Tiqiri in for Brown / Moltzen (one to the bench) & we are only missing Lawrence?

 

[R2Coupe]

The interchange is for maximum impact? The Tiger's issue has been lateral movement of the ball and no go-forward.

Why wouldn't you have four forwards on the bench with Fulton and Ryan to State Cup.

 

[macnaz]

You would hope Brown would slot into centre if Lote is back ,, offers more that Moltzen ever will in that position..

You're hard on the old fella's aren't you? There is no way IMO that Fulton would drop back to NSW cup b4 the young kids, his experience alone would put him above them?

I like the idea of a back reserve, we would be screwed if we had a back go down with no options & besides, if it got desperate, Ayshford could always cover as another forward if required.

 

[DanOz]

Fifita off the bench for impact is a good thing imo

 

[madunit]

gee I think even at this stage, I'd be inclined to have Ryan on the wing and Brown replace Moltzen in the centres.

Moltz offers a lot more off the bench than Ryan does imo, and he's hopeless in the threequarters.

When Lui starts going missing, replace him for Moltzen.

Agree - Brown is a much better centre than Tim, and anyone is a better interchange than Beau...

 

[Mader45]

Well, so much for hoping some Saints players would be screwed after SOO. Out of the 8 that played I'd say only one or two would be feeling anything even now. Grubbers to Morris' wing anyone?

 

[andrew9148]

anyone hear anything re ellis and lote? are they playing?

Did Morris even break a sweat out there? Creagh and Merrin were invisible.

Does anyone have the stats on how many games this guy has missed through injury? It would be a lot I'm guessing.

For a big bloke he is very fragile...

For a big bloke he is very fragile...

Head knock in the Panthers game, their are now very strict guide lines that clubs must follow, to avoid being sued down the track.

Although I know where your coming from for a big bloke he dose spend a lot of time on the side lines
