16.Lawrence
17.Vave

18.Starling-Play if brown goes to centre

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Nup, TB won't chose that side!!

 

[Woodsie]

@Turbo I like your forward pack, and that is where the game against Bunnies is to be won or lost.

I think I have about as much chance of playing in the centres as Tafua. I don't think TB will want to change upto three positions to solve one. The simple choice will be to bring either Api, Godinet, Isaac into halve. I also think he will go with the best defender.

PS. I am surprised you haven't gone out and purchased a new backline.

Don't be surprised if turbo plays 5/8

 

[Andrew..]

I'll have a complete melt down if Jorge has another game of dropsy

 

[Eagles2nv]

Skivvy, and T-Red likely to play. BJ and kapow back from suspension so I think this is the likely team:

Mateo will be used as utility.

1. Stewart
2. Taufua
3. Lyon
4. Matai
5. Trbojevic
6. Walker
7. Issac John
8. Lussick

13. Trbojevic

14. Brown
15. Mateo

I would leave Matai out as he will be an ornament out there on Thursday. Keep Killer at centre and bring in Godinet to half.

Wash your mouth out.

I would have Matai in the team even if Zorba had to push him around the field in a wheelchair.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Pretty simple really

Marty & BJ back in
Skivvy back in

Burgess & Leary ( not that I agree with Leary) will come out, as will probably Mateo.

And someone who's played half to fill in, so John, Godinet ,doubt they'd bring up Hynes at this point.

And I don't think we go backwards with that , purely based on DCE's form to date.

I'd say this is very close; however, Starling will probably be in there.

 

[Woodsie]

@Mark from Brisbane

BJ, Marty, T-Red, Matai and a halve, Back in

DCE, Leary, Buhrer, Burgess, Starling out (if Lussick preferred)

Potato can stay.

Funny mate, no one loves skivvy more than me but Thursday won't be like playing Sharks or Roosters. Souffs are intimidating, fast and fit especially with the melon head back. What happens if skivvy goes down with one of his many injuries when we've got 13 boofheads trying to stamp on our heads. It could get ugly.

Whoops I forgot Ferris

Yep, Potato stays in as well!!

 

[Wombat Legacy]

DCE has been enormous in defence-not that he should have to be. This break will probably do him good

 

[Woodsie]

@qldeagle Wasn't joking.

Last time Matai played melon head he tried to wipe him out and ended up taking on all brothers grimm.

What a sensational why for skivvy to go out. A kamikazi tackle on Sammy.
The stuff of legends.

Then we just move Brown to centre.

which is why I believe his replacement will be the best defender. Slack defense on both edges (Walker) will be a disaster.

I'm not convinced

Be interesting to see which way Tendy Trent goes.

I guess the wild card is "soreness". Considering the quality of the postal service on here I was pretty shocked by the late withdrawals...and doubt, with no reserve grade to give things away, we will have any idea what the team will be until 1 hour before kick off
