Know what your saying, maybe up against the heavy weights Penrith, Parra and Melb it's going to be trench warfare. I'd take the punt on 4 fwds.

Will be a big loss if it is the season. Hopefully not as bad as first thought.
We carry Lawton on the bench as injury/HIA security. The amount of players leaving the field for this reason has increased significantly. He is the utility we need to cover hooker and back row. You need a player on the bench that can plug holes.
He has come on earlier in previous games as there has been injuries.
Keeping a player on the bench for 70 minutes is just placing far more pressure on the side as a whole. We may have done that years ago but the modern game is far too fast to have one of the 17 sitting on the bench for 70 minutes.

If Lawton is indeed out for the season I would be sharing the hooker duties with Segayaro.
If Lawton is out for the season I'd be expecting @globaleagle to be changing the title of this thread to

We could rest Cherry - Evans for another week. Only 4 days from SOO to Sunday's game. It would be a vote of confidence in the Schuster / Foran combo after the last game, and give Schuster consecutive games at five-eighth.

Bench
Ben T
Bullemor
Paseka
Tapau
Lots of flexibility in Ben T (centre/second row) and Bullemor (front row / second row /lock) that we may need. Paseka and Tapau to bend the line in attack from the 20th minute to the 60th minute. Bullemor to rest the second rowers as needed. Benny T to do whatever is required.
I think there's a lot of go-forward in the above forwards (as there should be!), and there is an opportunity to monster their Tiger opposites for a good win.

DCE probably wants to back up but I don't mind the idea of resting him.
But that bench can't cover the early loss of a half or dummy half. Wonder if Humphries might get the call-up. Or out of left field... Zac Fulton?
Another Fulton would be awesome. Baby Bozo
I thought he had a stint at dummy half in a trial? Though I might have just imagined it.Another Fulton would be awesome. Baby Bozo
Anyway, it seems inconceivable that a Fulton wouldn't be a decent passer of the ball.
Any idea how old he is I have been trying to find out. Is he development squad or top 30?I thought he had a stint at dummy half in a trial? Though I might have just imagined it.

Humphreys had a stint at dummy half during a trial and looked okI thought he had a stint at dummy half in a trial? Though I might have just imagined it.

To my knowledge he's in neither, nor train & trial, but he's in Jersey Flegg so he's under 21.
He's listed as as a second rower on the club site now but as @Chip and Chase pointed out that doesn't mean he's in the Top 30. It's all a mystery to me but I think he's eligible for selection, along with everyone else (?)
Reported in the Blacktown game as ‘member of NRL squad’ but that is news to us.
Not good news, unfortunately..

****house luck for the poor guy. First an achilles and now this. I know how he feels. Have done both those injuries and in that order - not fun and a long recovery. Good luck to him and I hope we see him back bigger and better in 2023 - he's a great player.
