Surprised to see Capewell still at centre. He got burned a few times against the Knights.

Looked to be injured, to be fair. Hopefully it was a cork or something and we see the best of him again. He was a beast before the Origin series

Capewell was ordinary last year and looked slow, because he was injured most of the year. Early this year he has been great. If he is injured now and playing, do we get the ordinary version?

I would still like to see TT in the 17 as cover. Even just as a player to bring on as an extra middle, he’s shown he’s got heart and footy smarts. We can’t run with Capewell at centre again. How did Ali look in cup.
Hard to tell with highlights and he was playing five eighth which was a bit odd in itself.

But defensively, it felt like he lacked a bit of urgency. Could've been due to playing out of position, but that was just my gut feel (albeit based on a 17min highlight package).

this is such bullshit. TT cant even make the bench? He can cover fullback wing and 6 at a pinch.

So can TMM, why have both of them?

Capewell can do a job at centre at a pinch, but shouldn't be the guy week-in-week-out - they need to sort that at some point

I'm a little concerned our guys will come out a bit flat. They were on such a natural high last week.

You'd think it should be onwards and upwards from here but, you know, it's the Warriors and we know them well, too well sometimes.

I thought we were flat for most of last week's game. Scored early, then almost scored again (arguably did) and thought it was going to come easy against an under strength Knights

I wouldn't expect any lack of motivation back home this week to the Titans

Ali played five eighth? Wasn't he named at fullback?

And why? Surely it's a priority for him to learn as much as he can about being a center

Yep he definitely played five eighth. As to why… good question. Guessing Hanson is injured but dunno why they decided on Ali as cover.

Given he’s seemingly fit but again been overlooked this week in favour of a backrower, there might be more going on.
