Elimination Final: Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks vs. Canberra Raiders Saturday 3rd October 5:40pm @ GIO Stadium Canberra

[andrew's_sharks]

Who would you pick as your 17 next week?

Personally I think we need to shuffle things around and try and run out an experienced side with a four forward bench. Forgot about injury cover.

I would go.

1. Dugan
2. Ronaldo
3. Ramien
4. Nikora (I don't think Goodwin or anybody else should play centre) he is able to play their and at least he has reasonable experience.
5. Katoa
6. Tracey
7. Townsend
8. Woods
9. Brailey
10. BHU
11. Talaki
12. Graham
13. Ruldolph

14. Williams
15. Sorenson
16. Fifita
17. Vasquez (I think we need the bigger body) or Wilton

 

[sharkstragic]

Nikora at centre would be a bigger disaster than back row right now. He can’t defend for **** and centre is probably the hardest place to defend

Yep

 

[puma1355]

1. Ronaldo
2. McDonald (goes ok with bombs)
3. Ramien
4. Dugan
5. Katoa
6.Trindall
7. Townsend
8. Woods
9. Brailey
10. BHU
11. Talaki
12. Graham
13. Nikora

14. Tracey
15. Fifita
16. Sorenson
17. Vasquez

 

[HaroldBishop]

Dugan at the back, Talakai at centre.

CT x 2 in the halves.

 

[Sharkyle]

I don’t mind dugan at fullback I think he’s our best fullback BUT if he’s even slightly injured I would put him in the centres

I’d go with

Dugan (If 100%) /Kennedy
Katoa
Talakai/Dugan
Ramien
Ronaldo
Tracey
Townsend
Woods
Brailey
Uele
Nikora
Graham
Rudolph

Fifita
Williams
Wilton
Vasquez/Talakai

Who knows though

I wish we still had capewell. Never thought I would say that.

Never thought I'd agree, wasn't always a big Capewell fan, would certainly prefer him over Nikora.

To play where?

 

[andrew's_sharks]

Never thought I'd agree, wasn't always a big Capewell fan, would certainly prefer him over Nikora.

Also his ability to play, wing, centre and second row was extremely helpful.

 

[vicsharkfan]

I always thought caps got undersold on here. Wish some of our current guys tried as hard as he did and still does, hope he sneaks into panthers 17 going forward give me someone to cheer for.

[vicsharkfan]

Any clues when we will play next week, .or what the time slots will be.

 

[Tiger Shark]

4. Ramien/Bryson
5. Katoa
6. Trindall

If I have left out anyone obvious let me know.

As far as I know Hunt isn't fit hence why I haven't included him.

Awful halves

Connor is really the only other option if we put Graham back into the 2nd row & I've always felt Trindall is a tad bit better then Connor. It's pretty obvious Bomber will put Chad back in there next week. Unfortunately for Connor he's got to come off the bench where he goes better or misses out. You obviously find Connor better though but thats just simply difference of opinion on players mate.

It’s more that a Chad and Trindall pairing doesn’t work for me. Needs to be Chad and more of a 5/8th imo
