A bit of a headache if Kata is out.

1- Tuivasa-Sheck
2- Fusitua
3- Ayshford
4- Allwood
5- Maumalo
6- Foran
7- Johnson
8- Lillyman
9- Luke
10- Gavet
11- Afoa
12- Hoffman
13- Mannering

Res- Matulino, Lisone, Tevaga, Vete

Kata out to injury.

Thompson, Roache and Sao to ISP

Kind of the maximum changes one could make....BUT that's a massively worrying defensive edge.

Don't understand the Roache selection at all, is Luke not an 80 min player? We lost huge momentum twice when the sub happened.

Yeah Allwood/Maumalo edge - that's scary.
not sure it's much scarier than Kata/Maumalo tbh

He won't change the side apart from injury, but Roache just shouldn't be there, Luke can play 80 I think

Maumalo, Lolohea, Allwood. Hardly a great selection to choose from.

Would like to see CNK picked, but I don't see that happening. Would own the other 3 comfortably IMO.

I get Roache in theory, but I don't think it's working
Of course - but at the end of the day he's not Craig Wing or PJ Marsh... he's mediocre, and Luke's finally playing like he's supposed to, so hard to see how it will work, or how the team gets better with him on the field in place of Luke

I don't really think he (Roache) is mediocre tbh... I think it's only a matter of time before he starts impacting games. Absolute phenomenon out of DH in the lower grades, taking a little time to transition (with limited opportunities and has had bad injury luck interrupting those), but seriously dynamic.

Tevaga's probably injured - he looked it on the weekend.

I had a look earlier today and couldn't find any news of Gubb being cited... but he must be. It was put on report and an absolute shocker of a tackle.

His time has come... in fact, some could say he is well overdue..
Warriors always trot out a line about not bloodying players in first grade too early.

They hold them back too long I reckon, and instead flog dead horses.

So what, is this team just going to be named 15 minutes before game time or something?

Give Kearney some time to figure this out, he is taking a while to figure out Ken is not a winger.
Ken might fill Matulino spot next year!
