Well they weren't punished with Jets jerseys but changes have nonetheless been made. Should be some happy campers round here.

Big game from Dale (likely starting at prop) & Hunt and Tommy H off the bench with arguably our 1st 2nd and 3rd choice Front Rowers out

Somehow we still have a better bench…

Changes to the wrong players though 😅

A few reckon Sifa is no centre & others aren't much chop on Kaufusi. A lot just want change. They couldn't all get their way. Hope at least someone is happy with this outcome.

This is the ultimate test on our character as a team. If they don't lift then we don't deserve the top 8.

So congested last I saw a ladder. Don't think this one will be decided early. Grab 3 on the trot & anyone is still flying.

I think we potentially drop out of the 8 if we lose this week (maybe 10th??).

A few bad weeks in a row will put pressure on a team and it’s a very slippery ladder at the moment.

But, also true that if you string a few W’s you can climb pretty high.
Close season except maybe the top 2 - 3 will skip away.

I can't see many teams getting close to Penrith and Souths, maybe the next one after them are the Broncos. After that, it's anyone's game besides the obvious struggling teams.

Falling out the 8 in r11 doesn't worry me in a 27 round comp.

Ya'd expect by time final 10r's or so roll in a couple will have skipped away at both ends of the ladder. I think potentially 3rd/4th-12th could be long tussle.

I think our middle is too small and it could bite us in this game. Would like to see Jesse C picked on the bench instead of Trindall to give us a bit more go forward.

Yeah with Tracey in the side we can cover any backline injuries, Graham can help out in halves if needed. A forward might be better

So Kaufasi and Talakai have been dropped? Or injured?
