Oates is carrying a knee injury. Sailor is probably on standby.

The team we are running out on Friday night has most of these names.

We were full strength (or thereabouts) both times we were beaten by the Roosters. Give or take Willison for Baker/Taupau. It's not really fair to include Te Kura as full strength given he's only played 24 minutes in a Broncos jersey.

I’ve probably been guilty of being a bit overzealous in the past to see new faces named in our team list graduating through q cup and other secondary pathways ahead of time, but I’d have thought we’d at least see a specialist second row named on our extended bench over a second hooker this week.
Hetherington may be a better overall player, but I’d sooner a lesser player who plays close to 80 in that position in lower grade and hungry for a shot to prove themselves. If nothing else, why not bring a Patston or Stuckey into the extended bench and in and around the boys this week? There’s no/minimal cap complications with that as far as I know.
Who’s to say they can’t become a hosking type revelation or rise to the occasion if given a shot in first grade?

Factually correct but the second game against them sucked because Arthars was gone in 15 minutes and Reyno 3mins into the second half. Then we got it back to 18 all and Mariner was binned for looking at Turdesco.We were full strength (or thereabouts) both times we were beaten by the Roosters. Give or take Willison for Baker/Taupau.

Even in round 1 Piakura was knocked out earl. Just shows that even when full strength our luck is fucked.

Did we even get to activate the eighteenth man on that night?

I would prefer Karapani at centre, Mariner at Wing and Oates on the Bench to cover 20 - 30 mins in the Forwards or a back injury.

I'm excited too, but not at the cost of having Oates back on the Wing.

We couldn't because walsh passed his HIA. They tried to get him back on the field but he couldn't see.

Agree with Oates on the bench, but for Karapani to the wing. Keen to see Mariner show what he can bring at centre where he was so highly touted, combined with how woeful karapani’s defensive positioning was shown to be at centre.
Plus Karapani has been playing the nuggety, yardage role as a winger in Burleigh really well of late. I’d like to see him bring that to our first grade squad which we’ve lacked of late.

we actually couldn't activate the 18th man because May wasn't sin binned.

The optimism in this thread is going to last about 10 minutes into the game when they get to everyone of their kicks and we're getting dad dicked in our own half

I thought they just have to be on report? I thought the issue was because he passed his HIA
