With Tahu and Matt Keating back next week, which players will miss out?

Wright and Te Maari? or does Tahu play a week for wenty?

Are they going to experiment with Fui back on the bench again? When Fui and Mannah were on the field at the same time they looked devastating.

Let KK play 80 again and slot Tahu in and carry 4 forwards as per last night including Te mari as he rode the bike well but i was impressed with his one strong run he had when it was a pressure time.Like to see more of him.

Tahu will come straight back in
MK will either start of play off the bench rotating with his brother

but seriously the question is, do you do this to the team.....?

6. Hayne
7. Robson

and yes, i'm serious, Hayne virtually played there last night to turn the game

Unfortunately he won't be making 80m busts to score a try after he diffuses a bomb from 5/8.

fair point snoochies......

but IMHO that is about the only reason you wouldn't make this move right now

and as an arguement for this move - we do not win that game last night if Hayne does not step up and essentially play 5/8, second receiver and take over the game almost single handedly.......food for thought.....

^^^

also, although safe most of the time, sometimes i do think Jarryd is not that interested in contesting bombs or making certain he is in the ebst position defensively at fullback, sometimes, he tends to be too casual with that aspect of his game....

I think his acceleration and speed allows him to be (in what appears to be) out of position.

This leads to confusion as other players may also be able to get to get in range to take the kick resulting in the need for good communication.

i would like to see KK stay at #9 - i generally don't think he's a good dummy half but he went well last night

tahu in for wright ... depending on if he's sorted his sh*t out - we can't afford brain farts again

i'd like to see te maari actually given a run - he might have a point to prove if he's put on the field for more than 2 minutes next week

so that means no MK on the bench ... if necessary to rest KK, slide robo to dummy half - we can play with hayne at 5/8 in attack

id have Tahu come in for Wright, leave Te Mari on the bench. Te Mari has always been a good player but his discipline off the field has hurt him so hopefully he can keep his nose clean.

I'd keep KK in 9, give Te Maari another go on the bench and bring in Tahu for Wright.

I'm not sure MK deserves to go straight back in, but I guess the fact that KK is off next year we should probably support him

After yesterday I think I'd prefer Wright over Reddy if Tahu is back. I know Wright has really only had one good game, but thats 1 more than Reddy.

I really don`t know about Tahu. I hope his mental state is okay - because what he did against Newcastle was outrageous. After last night, I`d have K. Keating at hooker. Drop Wright and either have four forwards on the bench (leaving Matt Keating in Wenty) or three forwards plus Humble. Speaking of Humble - where is he? It`s strange.
You know, if it was my team, I wouldn`t be rushing Tahu back at all. Wright will improve if he`s left there.

Well, Humble was dropped as he is no interchange hooker.
Matt Keating probably deserves another run, if Tahu's back in then Keating should be.
