Another issue with not having Schuster and Sironen back in time is that it reduces the effectiveness of Marty.

Having Marty start means our back 20 in each half is much less potent than it was when Sips and Marty were coming off the bench. Having Siro or Schuster (just one of them) in allows Marty to go back to the bench, keppie to prop and lawton to 13.

We also will have Josh back soon, some extra grunt. Pretty good looking fully fit side

Possibly unpopular opinion but for a prop on $600-$800k he should be able to produce his best work as a starting prop.

In any case we'll have more options when Aloiai is back
 
This is a huge game for us.. with our run home there's every chance we can snag a top 4 finish IF we win these gimme games (and not show up flat and lose like we did against the knights... Altho ref had a huge say in that also)
Not only must we win, we must win BIG.. every chance top 4 will hinge on f/a and playing a dogs full of Reggie players, we should win by 60
 
Dogs are heavily undermanned. We should win quite comfortably if we have learnt from the Newcastle L and the Titans first half. Wish they would actually give us an update about Schuster but it's obvious they want him fully fit and ready to play 6 against Raiders when Chez is out. Especially since it's a five-day turnaround from Dogs to Raiders. I hope Tommy plays, coz he is missing out on the raiders game coz he's in blues camp and unlikely he will play for dragons coz it's two days after game 3. So would be nice for him to collect some dally m points against the dogs. And I really hope Jetski never plays in our 17 again and is only on the reserves coz of lack of names. Lets gooooooooo Manly.
 
Still no clearer if Tommy will play. Doubt we will know for sure till an hour before kickoff. Will feel slightly more confident if Funa drops off in the first cut but most likely shift would be Parker to wing Suli/Walker to centre and Cust/Suli to bench.

I think he will play

We won't see him next weekend against raiders or dragons 2 days after soo3 plus he does not need to train so five days rest will be enough rest time he needs.
