Pre-Game Raiders v Manly [Round 24, 2022]

[The Wheel]

Twitter rumour has Harper out Burbo to centre and Weekes to bench

 

[Cameron]

4 forwards have asked for a release. Not named and club has refused.

Not true 2 forwards a winger and a reserve grader. Is my mail

 

[HoldenV8]

I will admit that I have been critical of Burbo because I honestly haven't seen anything in him yet to suggest he will be anywhere near as good as his older brothers.

I am still hoping he makes me eat my words.

Based on form, aloiai, sipley and tippy toes.

Well, that's 3 play-the-ball speeds we can instantly ugrade.

NRL website has Burbo in backrow and Davey out now.

Apparently Harper is going to be ruled out with Shoulder injury . Weekes to 1 and Koula to centre ???

 

[bob dylan]

Is this news via someone close to the club or via some gossip platform?

I will only be concerned if its Jake and Croker, but not surprised. If i was them i wouldnt want to play with the other pea-hearts in our pack.

Yeah he's getting a bit of a free ride with his name it seems, but as with you, I'm happy to be wrong.

 

[Eagle 1]

I have never known a season with so many injuries, surely 2023 will be the year we rid this curse from us.

 

[Ryan]

In regards to Ben Trbojevic, he was an absolute standout in the backrow in the lower grades.

Wasn't Shyster as well?

 

[Highflier]

JA, OH, TS and AT or VF?

i can guess 2 of those, clueless as to the rest ?

 

[Dee Why Eagle]

Based on form, aloiai, sipley and tippy toes.

if true, more than happy to say goodbye to those three...
But wouldn't want to lose Toula, Guac or Saab

 

[40 nil]

Aloiai, Olakau'atu, Sipley, Tuitavake & Fifita

 

[NYEagle]

Aloiai, Olakau'atu, Sipley, Tuitavake & Fifita

Really?. Wow, good bloody riddance then.

The nerve!

OK, let them go but include a clause they go to the Warriors. They will do it, and they can add to the losing culture over there. The Warriors will NEVER win a comp no matter who they bring over.

Its the perfect was to ensure they make no impact in opposition.

I really hope Des puts Weekes at fullback and Koula to centre, but I think the chances of this happening are very small. The typical Des move would be Ben to centre in place of Harper, Bull to second row in place of Davey, and then either Weekes or Roumanos on the bench to play 5-10 minutes at the end of the game.

I was interpreting the guesses of @tookey.
Those players are not confirmed as wanting to leave. If you read the thread more carefully, you would have noticed this.

I think the majority of true Sea Eagles supporters wouldn't want our best young outside back, our best backrower and our best frontrower to depart the club
