Pre-season trials: All you need to know

Here's everything you need to know about the 2022 NRL Telstra Premiership pre-season trials.

[Mark from Brisbane]

So when we lose and Tigers win I wonder if their supporters will give them a standing ovation as they come off the field ??

That worked really well for then last year didn’t it ??

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Oh not saying we’ll lose but we treat trials like trials and so that’s often the result.

In my opinion trial form is meaningless but it does give the 17-30 a chance for a run.

 

[double hoops]

Club certainly treats releasing squad team lists like it's a trial. Even if a 1-17 are named they won't see much or any game time. I'm more keen to see if any Blacktown boys not on train and trials get a run.

 

[Highflier]

Not the first typo to appear on this site. Happy trials everyone

You are right Admiral, heinous crimes against grammar and general butchering of the Queens English is more the rule than the exception here on STs
In this instance your excused
At ease Admiral!!

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

We were awful in the trial against the Tigers last year, then followed that up by being awful for the first four rounds of the competition as well. Coming off the back of a dud finish to a dud year, there was little cause for celebration.

But this year when we get spanked in the trial, as we always do, and provide the Tigers with their yearly glimmer of hope, I'm guessing there won't be quite so much doom and gloom…

 

[ALinda]

Can a mod or Admiral edit the title.....I can't handle haha

I'm with you @Disco - @The Admiral please edit this thread title! Thank you

 

[maxta]

Would be great to get some sort of squad announcement for the trial this week.

Though thats not generally how we roll 🙁

Expect a squad Thursday Disco

Am I remembering correctly that the Tigers didnt really rest any of their players for the trials last year?

Could be different this time around Ron EG, competition for forward spots will be good to watch. Would imagine every forward barring Jake, will be all out to impress Des.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Yep, they ran out the bulk of their NRL squad. We didn't.

 

[Highflier]

Not good enough Admiral, aren’t you military types supposed to assess adapt conquer!!!

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Yep, they ran out the bulk of their NRL squad. We didn't.

It was virtually their best 17 v our 15-34

I did change it, then I changed it back in case The Admiral didn't want it 'correct'.

And now, with the response of "I tired" I legit have no idea if he did try or he (?) can't be stuffed.

lol

As they say, happy trials everyone
