Fortunately, the team we are up against looks like it has very little in the backline anyway, we should be able to get away with whatever we do against the Roosters. Their right side defense looked non-existent, so our left side should put plenty of points through there. Their left side looked like it may jag a try but I wouldn't be expecting much more than that.

Got an email tonight with a link to one-game memberships.
The Ticketmaster website is absolute balls, though, and there seem to be barely any seats available, at least to the Cowboys game.

The bonus with the right side is that Reynolds is there... those two just need to follow whatever orders he's barking out to them.
Mariner can't be any worse than Staggs and his flying out of the line to tackle the 6, leaving Cobbo to deal with 3v1's

All about completions and execution when it comes to games that "we should win"... too often last year we would be in positions to score, bomb it through an error and then concede points, instantly putting us behind the 8 ball.
Even in the trial on the weekend I think 3 of our first 4 sets inside the dogs 20m ended with them getting 7-tackle sets.
Jesse bombing an easy try could've been a 12 point turnaround... have to be better than that.

Is Innes, Saxon from the trials?
Because he looked very good in his limited time on the field... was giving me Herbie vibes

Thanks for that, yep Ticketmaster blows.
I am however a massive fan of the phins being listed as REDCLIFFE amongst those games.

Where does he sit contract wise? Did he take Shiba's T&T slot?

That’s high praise from you. And you back him to be completely competent?

I'm guessing meninga cup form
Regarding Innes if it was long term inclusion, I would say no but short-term couple of weeks I think he could do it. Certainly not my normal MO to think a player could play NRL after two Cup games.
He's stepped up every time he has had to, and I think he could play NRL. He was outstanding on Saturday for the Bears. In Meninga but he played both sides of the field scores a great try on the right then minutes later goes over on the left and puts Tohihi away on the left.
His two Cup games have been off the bench and fullback- against the Pride- he was really promising. Moving to fullback and just reacted really well to the pace of Cup and his first two or three touches were excellent. Bears got run down but his first 20 minutes was good on the right. Two try assists were legit try assists and involved good fullback work and then he sets up other players too.
This year is his third year of Mening and game 21 plus his two Cup games and he's now been involved in two NRL trials with limited game.
His speed will compensate for any physical weakness. His first 40m is breathtaking to watch. - his break on Saturday off a Marley pass and he was gone and then just calmly passes inside to his unmarked man.
He's not on a dev deal at the moment and not top 30 but I said at the end of last year the next Broncos outside back will come from Coates, Innes or Tonlhi. Innes has gone past those two at the moment.
