How good is it that the players we have from #14 through to #20 are all dead even in competition for spots.. good roster

Except 17 because Royce has been fan****ingtastic and an easy pick

 

[Gumby]

Swap Tracey for Nikora

 

[HaroldBishop]

Reckon we'll be a bit flat for this. Hopefully we get the job done.

 

[stormshark]

Need Fifita back big Time, then our Bench Forms up Proper.

Swap Tracey for Nikora

Fair call, but i would actually Prefer keep Tracey (true quick/utility), -replace Sorensen/Williams for Nikora.

 

[HaroldBishop]

Swap Tracey for Nikora

Don't think Nikora adds anything to the bench tbh. Could say Tracey doesn't either but at least he covers a few positions.

 

[Cage]

Bomber still seems willing to carry a busted Moylan. Doesn't seem to be able to get his head around the fact that the big pay cheque doesn't necessarily translate into a big on-field performance.

Looking at titans bench, its balanced, also why Traceys in. They got the 2 tricky players on there.

 

[Sparkles]

If we're working well without using up all of our interchanges I can't see why you wouldn't cover halves and backs with Tracey on the bench. We had 2 HIA's last week, and that's not uncommon.

I think in today's game it's a an advantage if you can get away with it.

Also Moylan's legs are a ****ing liability
Also Bomber has shown some interest in resting Brailey at times when he can
Also we rarely use all 8 interchanges even with Tracey on the bench so no use for 4 forwards

 

[BurgoShark]

I like Soro as a bench middle. He brings in a bit of skill that was lacking when we were rolling with 4 battering rams coming off he bench.

 

[Super Impose]

I like Soro as a bench middle. He brings in a bit of skill that was lacking when we were rolling with 4 battering rams coming off he bench.

I agree with this and he can cover the edge back row as well.

Comes down to weather we want Tracey or another forward.

Same a heavy track would have taken a lot of energy from the big boys.

 

[Sir Chadley]

I think there’s more rain forecast Friday and Saturday again so it’s likely to be another wet track.

 

[snowman]

sorro will start though, i dont think he is the player i would have on the bench when we are at full strength

Works hard at Lock from the get go.
Yes , full strength will be interesting who starts in that position

 

[Tiger Shark]

I do like how he's rotating the forwards a bit, giving them all game time since there are no lower comps to keep match fitness/timing etc. Should we have injuries and need to bring them up they won't be as rusty since they've played a couple of games.

Also keeps the players on their toes, knowing a shocker might see them dropped.
