I think Kevvie will pick 3 forwards and a hooker. I think the fella from the Cowboys who is coming down is a fair shout for that last bench spot tbh

Only time will tell mate. I understand the thought but it’s much more beneficial if we can find a guy who can cover the back row and centres well. Oates is not that guy.

Yet he took that gamble last night lol. See where we’re going with this?

A gamble almost every team makes every single week.

Oates is not a backrower. He’s just pretending to be to get a game. Walsh doesn’t go down with cramps as often as you suggest.

That is a worry but we’ll cop 2025 on the chin when we win the comp this year. Reynolds has been unreal but for this team if we’re full strength with Madden in the 7 we will give it a shake still.

That’s crazy. Walsh had cramps. He’ll adjust his diet and be fine. No coach can carry a back on the bench unless they can contribute in another position.

That’s the only positive out of it. Really need Madden to be a short term injury for the team moving forward. Old Man Reynolds needs to be managed throughout the remainder of this season

Reynolds and Walsh will play on Friday. It was cramp.

It’s a huge concern if Maddens injury is long term because that’s our back up for Reynolds. Reynolds is falling apart but he’s playing such good football. That said if Walsh and Ezra get the keys to the team it’ll be one exciting ride.

Man wish I could have stayed for the main game. Sounds like it was a cracker with so many points scored

It was cramps and losing Madden earlier in the match meant interchange numbers were an issue. It’s very obvious that the club is being extremely cautious with injuries at this point in the season.

There is talk Cobbo won’t be ready.

He’s just playing wing on a good team. Easiest job in the world

Gonna be very interesting to see what we do with the centres without both Cobbo and Staggs. We could see Sailor on the wing with Mariner and Arthars in the centres. Sailor will have a crack but he’s a small guy against massive Roosters wingers. I’d be surprised if Mam doesn’t play but Josh...

He’s just gotta embrace it. Go bald and oil up the scalp

He just wants it. Not as talented as others but he’s just pure footballer. At least he’s going bald.

the panthers once again get to play a team who loses a backline player.

I tipped the cowboys but I don’t know why

Big concerns for me is if Staggs is suspended and we don’t get Cobbo back. Keen to see the forward battle in this one. Should be a cracker.
