That's an interesting side.
 
Oates should start in fron of Offa with Stagg to lock. Otherwise OK team
 
Stagg starting? :shocked: Would've preferred Greinke!

Interesting choice with Joe Boyce. Haven't seen enough of him, but heard great things.

Is Lowrie injured btw?
 
1-11 was expected and even playing a guy like Stagg at in the starting line-up was to be expected. Not sure about you guys, but I find him and Lowrie to be very interchangable.

Excited by the selection of Ofahengaue at 13. This will be a huge test for him and I'll be very interested to see how he goes.

I would have personally gone with Oates as he has more experience in the position and is in a better position to step up but maybe Wayne wants to keep Oates on the fringe but wanted Stagg there to help out Hunt? I can live with that.

Boyce's selection is surprising. He's been one of the better players for Souths Logan but I would have thought for sure he would have played it boring and gone with Lowrie. He doesn't have a lot of wraps on him Joe so hopefully he goes out there and proves them all wrong.
 
happy to have offa start in the middle as he should provide a bit of go forward to cover lazy blair
 
Would rather not have Stagg in the starting team to get run over the top of. Oates should start...I'm not against Offy at 13, rather, I am insanely excited to see him start! We will really need the extra size to hold the line together, what I am worried about is the fact we only have 1 bench prop...seems a bit strange to leave Garbutt out unless he got injured on the weekend?

He's signing with Manly. He won't get a run under Bennett if he's looking at playing elsewhere.

He didn't even play on the weekend.

He's been struggling with injury all season.
 
Interesting.. would've preferred Oates in the starting line-up over Stagg, apart from that it's fine.
 
Stagg will purely just tackle his ass off in the middle of the ruck which is why he is starting. Not a bad replacement if you ask me considering he used to make 50+ tackles a game and he is a seasoned veteran.
 
Excited to see Boyce get an opportunity. Disappointed about Oates but as long as he gets proper minutes then that's okay. No more of this Oates not touching the ball the whole game stuff.

Still not convinced we have the go forward to win this but it's clear we have the superior backline if we can get even just match them up front.

Adam Blair needs to step up in a big way. He's been a massive disappointment so far and this is the perfect situation for him to prove his value.
 
Gagai at FB for the knights? That's interesting.
