That's one hell of a bench, I'd be surprised if there's not a shuffle in the forward pack somewhere.

Also wouldn't be surprised if Bird is in the centres.

Would have loved to see Gagan in Gordon's spot, but some change is better than nothing.

This better not be some kind of April Fools joke lol.

What happens when barba comes back?

Fair question.

I think we missed a trick not giving Murphy a 2 week trial while Barba was suspended. If the kid isn't ready you don't do any damage dropping him because Barba was always returning. If he goes good you know you've got another option there, and so do the guys currently in the role.

Putting holmes at fullback tells me Flanno is going to put Barba back at 6 when he is back.

Meaning its down to Bird, Ricky and Gerard for the two centre spots.

My money is on Bird and Beale.

Straya ****!
Fifita on the bench is good for us. His crab style suits the game more when teams are tired.

We are missing a kicking game . Robson get sick so Murphy can come in

Pretty happy with that line up, hopefully that's it and val is officially the fullback for good and not sent back to the wing.

Thats a good team this week, I like seeing Bird being given the official 5/8th role & switching Val & Gordon over, I would have liked to see Gagan given a shot though, Priors been a decent player in the prop role this year.

Your second team?
Haha, I hate them more than ever this week after hearing off about 3 different people (all knights supporters) how cronulla should be kicked out of the comp. It was pointed out that the nrl owns their club and we're on the verge of seeing a lot of money because of the development etc but was pissing into the wind trying to have a reasoned conversation with them.

yep. But thats progress. If you keep naming teams that get smoked, for games that we will get smoked. THen we get nowhere.

Maloney and Pearce are going to put a lot of guys over on Sunday.

I expect Cordner to run in 2 tries on his edge, Toupo Jennings and SKD will all get at least a try each too.

That is exactly what I hope to see.
