11 David Stagg
12 Ashton Sims

Interchange
14 Shane Perry

Ben Hannant still in doubt pending visit to a specialist. No word who is on standby.

Is that the official team?

 

[ethos]

Sensible selections.

I hope Hannant's fit though, we need his size up front because the Roosters pack is pretty massive.

One would have to assume Wapau's on standby? I can't think of anyone else..

 

[Coxy]

Is that the official team?

Yes.

And agree Ethos, it'd have to be Wapau. But it's not official yet.

Most excellent! If I had a creative bone in my body I'd do up a Taylor banner for Friday...but I don't! [icon_lol1.

wish WB would stick Beale on the bench instead of Perry, hes hardly going to create any spark or do much of anything when he gets on, be better off having an extra forward on the bench and shift stagg to 9 when marsh needs a break..........

Any chance of Michael Ennis coming into the team late for Perry?

Highly unlikely. Quad strain is not improving quick enough at this stage, so they're planning to give him another week.

Surely we can come up with something better than that - perhaps a "Manua" style brainstorming session before the game is in order! [icon_lol1.

ah. stop dissing perry. he is a very reliable player to fall back on and can play a few positions which is what you need with 10 interchange. Unless it's mick ennis to come back in side perry should stay. Btw GOOD TEAM WB nice selections. A great coach.

 

[Jay-Lee]

Should be a good game.
I look forward to meeting you guys,
Should i bring my Bennetts Bronco Brilliance poster along ! ?!

BRING IT I WANNA SEE IT

Yes.

It's believed the exciting Wapau, who earned rave reviews in his first season for Redcliffe in the Queensland Cup last year, is the player on standby for Hannant.

Looks likely.

 

[ethos]

Someone should make a WA-POW! banner in old school comic style text.

 

[ningnangnong]

Hopefully this Wapau character gets a run.

I want to see him angry.

He will smash Willie. :headbangingsmiley:

 

[spoonbled]

cant wait for this game. i think we need to get rid of perry on the bench. Are we only keeping him there in case locky gets injured?

marsh can play 80 min, if not Stagg or Eastwood could get in there for a bit. i can understand having him there in a 12 interchange but not 10.
we should go with a 4 forward bench. Add Palmer and you can shift Stagg or Eastwood to any position you need to fill. if we match the Roodogs forward pack early we can win like last week (not as convincing though).
