2018 Rd 5 - Manly v Titans: - Pre-Game Discussion.

[SeaEagleRock8]

I cant understand people wanting to rush Hastings off to full-back.

Meanwhile, I suppose another wing option could be to swap Parker over to left wing, and play Funa or Tom Wright at centre.

A debutant might be a little less exposed at centre than at wing.

I really hope our patched up team can account for the Titans, would be a giant morale boost if we can.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Or is Funa injured too? Just noticed he wasn't in our last Blacktown team.
If so, that is another one unavailable from our reduced NRL squad.

Why would we start with 12?

 

[manlyfan76]

If Lussicks mind is on toronto I don't want him playing and half assing it

Yer, not sold on Darcy Army. Rockx and or dymondz

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Jeez you have to feel sorry for Curtis , his career has been somewhat chequered by injury hasn’t it.

And I don’t forget how we went backwards last year when we lost him.

 

[1969]

I think we may have seen the last of Darcy Lussick, he is joining Toronto on a lucrative deal, and doubt he will have the heart in it since we wouldn't offer him a contract.

 

[Smokin Joe]

Or is Funa injured too? Just noticed he wasn't in our last Blacktown team.

No,he is available but doubtful to be selected.He has been playing centre in Flegg,he played fullback this week with Lambkin trying to unsuccessfully shake things up.

 

[The Who]

It seems everyone has forgotten the logical replacement - the fullback in the reserve grade.
His name is Honeti Tuhu and last night he was one of the few who played well.
Why pick guys who are past NRL standard, such as Jono Wright, when you can blood a young player in his chosen position?

 

[Fibro Eagle]

As pointed out on a few comments Anderson is not in squad
So comes down Jono Wright , Tom Wright or Funa that comes in for turbo Don’t think Hastings will play in the backs .TB usually goes the safe option so most likely Jono
But Tom has been in the 20 man squad this week
So will be interesting to see who TB picks this week

The player needs to be in the top squad unless the club applies for special circumstances can’t see the NRL acting fast on that

Couldn’t even see the NRL acting if we were down to 11 players , Turdy would just say “ karma”.

A few young guys in BWSE are looking forward to show their wares. 🙂

Sipley, Paseka and Jetski are all part of our 28

Now to watch what the Titans will offer up next Sunday

 

[smithy]

As mentioned only players in the Top 30 can be selected unless there is no one left at that position and given we have J wright and T Wright it’s unlikely we would get dispensation. That said, if Lussick is granted a release we could use that spot and the cap space created to either upgrade a development player or a second tier player into that spot.

 

[nightster]

haha ... sorry Brian accidentally left you out mate!

because Hastings trained as backup fullback

Matty Wright must have been off sick that day.

Wright has some hip problem still 😕
