Scary what we can have.

Wouldn't mind seeing this in the forwards :

8. King
9. Ballin
10. Kite
11. Watmough
12. Harrison
13. Stewart

14. Bhurer
15. Williams
16. Galavao
17. Rose

Why start Harrison you want to know? Take the sting out of the opposition in the opening stanza trex and ferris come on in the late stages of the half and create havoc. Same in the 2nd half.
Trex on for Harrison and Bhurer on for Ballin

 

[ads]

Totally agree with that team Mick.

 

[bob dylan]

I like Lussick a bit more than Harrison, but its a toss of the coin.

They both get a little lost in defence but thats just inexperience. Harrisons try saver yesterday was a beauty though, pity he let one in just after.

I would rather have T Rex start so he can smash the crap out of the opposition in the opening stanza .

 

[Top End Eagle]

Where do you put Ben Farrer?

 

[HappilyManly]

Daniel and Dean are the most improved this year.

I can't include Liam as he didn't play at NRL level last year, but he too is relaxing into first grade and letting others do their share of work.

All bodes well for #B2B

 

[BOZO]

Where do you put Ben Farrer?

On a plane back to the Super league

 

[Fro]

Tafua in for whare in the original team, otherwise bang on.

 

[The Who]

Tafua in for whare in the original team, otherwise bang on.

No, sorry. Definitely not Jorge.
The original team looked good to me. Harrison is shading Darcy at the moment, and Joe is a metre-eater.

 

[Fro]

the more tafua plays the better he will get, he has more of a physical presence than whare, although Whare has the skills (at the moment).

It's a good problem to have though, as neither are a bad option

 

[bob dylan]

Where do you put Ben Farrer?

Somewhere in France, right away from the NRL.

 

[Chip and Chase]

I'd maybe have Mauro ahead of George at full strength. Could argue a case either way though.

 

[simon_eagle]

That squad can go back-to-back, no problems at all.

This thread does go to show how poor Lussick has been this season - at least in the eyes of Manly fans - and rightfully so. The same can be said for Mauro, who lets not forget, was in our winning Grand Final team.

 

[bob dylan]

When has Mauro been bad?

 

[simon_eagle]

When has Mauro been bad?

Perhaps not necessarily bad, but certainly not as effective as some would have hoped. I haven't seen that "spark" that I got from Harrison yesterday.

On a side note, the fact that Kite is our other starting prop speaks volumes. Now he is playing really well, sure, but at 31, he should be tested more by some younger players for his spot.

With that depth why not have a rotational policy during the origin period give guys like snake a rest instead of backing him up a couple days after an origin game.

I wouldn't be suprised if that does happen. Whare needs game time & with Brett's knees you don't want to overwork him.

Won't be suprised if the rest of the SoO guys back-up though, barring any injuries.

 

[MadMarcus]

We are going to have massive problems selecting a side when everyone is fit. We have far too much talent in our team. I blame the dysfunctional Board.
