Surely this forces gal into the front row... He and fifita need to start there imo, also allows us to play a bench of ross, tupou, bukuya and morris/de gois.

Definitely a massive loss, gibbs does alot for us particularly in defense.
That only leaves us with one prop on the bench
Are you expecting Gal to go the full 80 up front
Big ask for a guy with very little pre season training

Reading the knights forum, there were heaps more knights off than I realised late in the game. Still they had their best team for most of the game compared to us

gal, fifita to start.

Ross > fifita
fifita> gallen (10mins before and after half time)

or if gal can't be dragged off he can go to an edge like he'd normally do to start a game.

The other option is to play one of taufua/green and likely leave bukuya out of the team. After thinking about it we may need the extra size against a big titans pack though.

It was a good night. Poor old Stapo was knocked out pretty bad right in front of us which is a shame since he was trying to get in the thick of things whenever he could. Jono wright definatley looks the goods and will put plenty of points on the board for us. Bukuya looked fit and ran hard. Fafita will be a sharkie icon if he sticks with us for years to come. He was a handful for the knights whenever he ran. And things certainly came to life when slippery little Gards hit the field.

Sounds like gards has definately put his hand up. I really hope flanno uses form and not pay packet size to pick his team.

Thanks for the info mate. What position/side did Johno play? How were the other centres Leutele and Matt Wright?

That's a load of crap, the knights interchange didn't change in the last 15min much, as I had the interchange boys strentching and warming down.

Why the hell would he get more in an nrl trial when he's well down the pecking order?

15mins is plenty for a fringe player.
