It's Jake at prop, not Ben.

I think one of the Butchers needs to get the chop.

 

[Brookie Bob]

Interesting Burbo at prop, might be a bit of tweaking before the game to how they actually run out

That's a missprint - it's Jake at prop.

 

[Brookie Bob]

Looking forward to seeing Kaeo on Kayo this Friday night.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

GCKT starting at hooker , looking forward to see how goes again

Is Toby really going to spend some time at dummy half? Can't see anyone else there, unless maybe swaps with Johns for a bit?
Or maybe Weekes comes to dummy half for a while, Toby or Garrick or Koula to fullback??

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Keppie in the #13. Did not see that coming.

WTF???

 

[lsz]

Humphries must be pretty upset about his injury timing - has now well and truly been jumped over by Johns (to be fair they would not have got him if they did not think it was the case)

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Interesting to see Jake at prop first up.

Seibs has been reading Silvertails

Just not KO'd!

WTF???

Yep, seems a bit weird.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Must say it will be VERY interesting to see how young Gordie three names goes amongst the big boys.

I thought he really stood out last week but that was mostly against Reggie’s.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Yep, if he can hold his own against Collins Smith and Lodge it will be a big tick for him.
Definitely looking like an NRL debut for Gordie this year, at some stage.

Could see Johns play at hooker for a period that would allow Toby to play at 1/2

That’s why they are playing him , big big test for the young fella !!

I wish him all the very best.

Any ideas why DCE isn't playing? Didn't see him in the injured list.

The website just quotes DCE being rested along with Croker and Turbo

Schuster is the only spine player named. Pretty sure the other 3 are good to go but Seibs already knows what he will get from them so he wrapped them in cotton wool.

Great looking trial team. Really want to see Schuster put in a solid game. Love to see young Gordon and Fifita put more pressure on the players in front of them. Footys back..

@BOZO you're over the top!...
But in this instance, omg... just how good were these two!!!

 

[The Who]

IF, and it's a big if, Gordon plays well then it could allow Froggy to become a regular lock. I think he could handle it. He has the ball skills gained from playing in the halves, and he is a good defender. There has been several former halfbacks who made the transition to lock. One of note is DESpicable.
