17. probably f**king Tolar... and yes the tithead made some more horrible mistakes today, including the offside from the kickoff. that one murdered me, it was the last thing we needed.

that team should still compete. we're absolutely dicked if we cop any more injuries, though.

Stig is basically the same sort of player as Henry. You can make the argument he isn't as good, but we can stick with our team structure by just dropping Stig in the same spot - and he ran through the plays even more than Henry did in the off season since Henry wasn't fit till the last month.

 

[Alex28]

You make a good case Roop however I think you know as well as the rest of us Wes/Gidley/Mullen is the most likely and probably best 1/6/7 on the basis of Henry/McDonnell/Rogers being out.

 

[The_Joey_Show]

1. Wes
2. Jimmy
3. Sau
4. Doogs
5. Aku
6. Mullo
7. Gids
8. Tui
9. Hilder
10. Kaufusi
11. Taia (hopefully)
12. Pato
13. House

14. Tolar
15. Edwards
16. Taufua if fit, Tetevano if not
17. A utility... Karawana, I guess.

Not great, but they'll be competitive if they all aim up.

 

[Allstar Knights]

Fa'aoso should be alright for next week. He was inspirational today giving his all for the team even though he could hardly stand up. I've never seen that side of him before.

Disappointed with all the injuries you copped today, next week was looking to be a cracker. Henry against his old club would have been exciting

I just hope your team does a number on Manly next time you see them. I would love to see Watmough and Glen Stewart get put on their backsides because those cheap shot merchants have it coming. You smashed them in the finals last year, do it again.

(Sorry but I just needed to vent that somewhere, so angry right now).

Yes, not wrong there mate, can't stand those two, well said, just a pair of thugs. Lucky Newcatle made so many mistakes today but I think pay back big time next game.

I like it. Is it time for Cook to get a run???

 

[Whos Ya Daddy]

Is Gidley definitely going to play or are you all just hoping?

 

[Tom155]

[Serc]

I would say so, it was always going to be most likely this week or next week, and was a good sign to see him train for much of this week also, so he was pretty close.

 

[Newie is God's Country]

O'donnell and southern to the bench as both will add far more than tolar and ciraldo. Bluey will have a proper dig.

 

[Noname36]

1. Wes
2. Uate
3. Doogs (Is he back? If not Lulia I guess...How's Liki going?)
4. Sau (He seemed to be playing injured though at the end so who knows)
5. McManus

6. Mullen
7. Gidley (if he's back....if not give Roberts/Stig a run)

8. Tui
9. Hilder (no De Gois right?)
10. Kaufusi
11. Taia (He looked injured too though)
12. Pato
13. House

14. Taufua
15. Edwards
16. Southern (I know it will be Tolar but I'd much prefer Southern. Both are ineffective but at least Bluey has a bit of starch).
17. Zane/O'Donnell/Cook/Mika/anyone who can walk.
