New Props for this year…

[Leighbra]

Tuku Hau Tapuha (196cm, 114kg) and Jesse Colquhoun (190cm, 106kg) could be strong picks for us this year. Both are Sharks props stuck behind AFB, Kaufusi, Rudolf, and Hazelton. We need another prop as we're currently lacking depth and talent in that area. Considering NSW CUP and extended NRL lists, we should be realistic about who we can afford, who might get an early release, and who would be interested in joining us.

We dont need huge props, we need ones that are agile and mobile!

At this stage ,anything would be better.

 

[The Wheel]

Looks like we will have next to no props next weekend;
Paseka, Oshay, Bull injured
Sipley suspended
Jake HIA stand down

Think you find Jesse Colquhoun is currently out with a ACl injury. Not named in any teams this week but also not listed as injured on NRL website??

 

[Ohgeez]

What front row options do we actually have this weekend if all them guys are out? Lodge & Patolo can’t play right?

Jazz and Waddell.

[maxta]

Turbo to prop - leave Hoppa at fullback

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Clayton’s available……….

He’d be a Clayton’s prop

Surely we get an exemption for a few of our youngsters - if they aren't injured or suspended

This game, if Turbo is back, is shaping up as probably the biggest ever mismatch in quality between the backline and the forward pack lol. Only Olakau'atu will be a first-grade standard starter, meanwhile you have all of these near SOO level guns in the forward pack.

For those of you who don't like the "send it wide" approach, it might be a good idea to claw out your eyes between now and next Saturday.

Thought I'd also mention that Freddy thinks Saab is a SOO bolter. He's certainly better this year, but thank God he isn't the NSW coach anymore!

Thats ok. I actually thought Brown was more effective this week than he has been for a while.
