Looks like Jake won’t be back this week or next..

@mrchrisnico:Told Jake Trbojevic (glute) WON’T play against Dogs. Likely return for @SeaEagles in round 18
We would have lost him for Raiders anyway due to Origin assuming he was selected for game 3?
 
Shame re Jake.

Only Trbojevic I would be playing this game would be Ben.
Look how stacked this side is even without Jake & Tom:
1 Garrick
2 Saab
3 Parker
4 Harper
5 Suli
6 Foran
7 Cherry-Evans
8 Paseka
9 Croker
16 Keppie
11 Olakau'atu
12 Lawton
13 Schuster (Lawton defend at 13, Schu attack at 13)

10 Taupau
14 Walker
15 B.Trbojevic / Sironen
17 Sipley

... Surely this side puts 30 on the Dogs anyways?

Jeez it's a pretty sad reflection on the state of Barrett's Bulldogs when a Manly side missing almost $2m worth of players in the Trobjevic bros still looks better on paper...
 
A bit too optimistic imo, but NRL.com has Jake and Schuster back vs Dogs.
I had a chat to Josh Schuster down at the academy of sport after they finished training last Wednesday and he said he’ll definitely be back against the dogs and when I asked him if he’ll be playing in the back row he responded saying nah mate probably in the halves. Still a bit confused about that because you’d think DCE would be fine to back up from origin since the dogs game is 6 days after.

I think the way Des will have Shu play with both Foz and DCE in the team is like an extra half

DCE plays both sides of the field while Foz and Shu play a side, he wears 12 but hes actually playing as a ball player in attack and defending as a second rower.

I posted athread a feww weeks ago where i think that Des is basically playing touch foot in attack and old school league in defense and our players are buying into this structure,
