Pre-Game Tigers v Manly [Round 8, 2023]

[47MVEagle]

Don't know where the iddle from middle disappeared to 😂

Up the hey diddle diddle with Jacob Liddell?

We suck at defending against teams that play expansive adlib football like the Tigers do. They've troubled us in recent years. If we turn uplike we did against the Knights, the mood on this forum will turn 180 degrees very quickly.

Tell you what I liked Vega. Bloke is a beast

Younger version of taufua. I haven't seen him under pressure yet with the high ball and hopefully he is alot more safer than what Taufua was.

 

[Damien2812]

I would be happy for Fainu to get the nod. We've got to give the young blokes a run sometime

True and it's the best game for him to get his debut against the Tigers. This game is big and we need to sort out the lack of attitude, effort and use the same mentality we seem to be doing at home. We need to recover some of our point differential in this game if possible.

I disagree with Bully coming in at second row, it didn't work for him last year and he's been terrific in the m

Toff and Bully for that instant impact off the bench for mine also.

Vaega gone for at least 2 games suspension?

NRL Judiciary Report: Kiwi games counted in NAS ban

Storm prop Nelson Asofa-Solomona will only miss one game at the start of the 2025 season after it was ruled that three of New Zealand's Pac Champs game would count as part of his ban.

Vaega to retain his spot, Garrick for Harper.

Read the post directly above yours .... Sea Eagles winger Tuaimalo Vaega was hit with a Grade 2 Shoulder Charge on Cameron Munster and will miss two games with an early guilty plea or three games if he fights the charge and is unsuccessful at the judiciary.

Well spotted. I missed the memo...

Definitely a middle , never an edge

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Now we know Viva is suspended , we can only v hope that Sandwhich is cleared to play.

Big Kelma will be out for a week , so yes maybe Fainu gets his debut.

Otherwise the coach won’t change anything.

 

[Woodsie]

Others have said it ... but agree .. I would love Fainu to get his debut .... just seems a great opportunity with Kelma out

 

[Shoe1]

Has Zac fulton been playing on the edge? It will be interesting to see who comes in. Possibly Condon is a middle? As is fainu?

[globaleagle]

Why do you always go back and change or add to your posts after they have been originally read and replied to .... ? ... appears to be a very intellectually dishonest habit ....

that's 95% of my posts!

well...until I get coffee in the morning.

Jake is really special ...

On MWSE website "Teams", Fulton is listed as a Lock whilst Fainu is listed as a Prop.

We currently have six 2nd Rowers listed:

Haumole Olakau'atu
Kelma Tuilagi
Ben Trbojevic
Ethan Bullemor
Karl Lawton
Ben Condon

Out of that list, we have 3 out injured which only leaves Ben Condon as the only 2nd Rower that is left availble to fill Tuilagi's spot in the side. Whether he is picked for next week or not, we will just have to wait and see. They may just go with another Prop or Fulton to fill the position.

Fainu getting a crack would be great. No better time to blood an untried youngster than against the worst team in the comp.

If we get Schuster and Garrick back we really should win this by plenty. Anything less than a 20+ win will be a failure in my book.

I'll take a 1 pointer win any day. F/A doesn't mean **** to us now with that draw.

 

[mickqld]

I just hope the 1 point gets us into the top 4 or 8 and not out of the 4 or 8.
