Team v Titans. Round 1

[Meth]

Herbert and Lisone is the side opposite.

 

[Benek]

Maybe a rouse to take pressure off O'Sullivan?

Forgot about him. That would be an interesting late call up. Don’t know much about him but must be better than Jazz at 9.

 

[Scott]

Phil Gould has tweeted that Evans & Murchie should both be fit for Round 2.

 

[Penrose_11]

When i 1st saw Sullivan in the 19, thought of Kodi moving to 9 and him starting at 6 if Egan doesn’t get over the line

yeah, I don’t think he would be the hooker.

 

[Meth]

Doesn’t bode well for us that we only have one hooker and he is starting the season under an injury cloud

 

[Grizzman]

Looking forward to this. I'm in Auckland on Saturday night so I'll have to hunt down a pub to watch the game. Pretty solid looking side.

Thats a relief, thought it was very weird they werent mentioned in the article

Bit disheartening that Pompey is top back reserve over Perham and Turner and no young player has overtaken Curran

 

[Penrose Warrior]

So Egan is definitely a scratching and we think that's a ruse?

Solid side, go forward shouldn't be an issue at all.

Hard to see a place in that side for Evans especially, and Murchie you'd imagine would muscle Sironen out but there's a lot of good noise coming out about Sironen apparently.

not sure. If he is fit, it’s ahead of schedule

 

[TheDMC]

According to media reports he is fit and will play, recovered quicker than expected. Don't think it is a ruse. Ruses like that are dumb as f**k anyway.

Sironen is a gun. Hopefully stays in the back row for some time, added bonus is he covers centre in the event of an injury to the outside backs.

I'd like to see Murchie in the 17, at Bunty Afoa's expense.

Yeah, I don't know. I like Afoa as a fourth prop and I think Murchie is a bit rocks and diamonds. Sensational on his day though

 

[nswarrior]

Solid team - great depth we have esp. in the forwards suddenly.

Cant wait for the game

 

[Benek]

If only we had some depth in 6,7,9. Lots of go-forward but if we get even one injury to the spine we're kind of screwed.

 

[Sanchez]

Wait for the darkest timeline where its Kodi to 9, Hiku to 6 and Pompey to 4

Darkest would be

9- Tevaga
14- Curran

 

[Big Marn]

Klein is ref. 50-50 calls might actually be 50-50?

 

[Meth]

I seriously don’t have an issue with Klein. I think he’s fine

No Mooks too. That was such a downer this time last year.
