[Stewbojevic]

If we’re serious this year and Seibold can learn from the effectiveness of a mobile pack against Penrith, this will be the team:

1. Turbo
2. Saab
3. Koula
4. Garrick
5. Hopoate
6. Brooks
7. DCE
8. Tauk

I like that list but I'm fairly sure we get Lodge back next week. Had a pretty quiet game in NSW Cup, but after a couple of weeks of training with the NRL squad, and in the absence of Paseka, I think he's a must.

I think Bullemor was great starting, but still plays his best footy off the bench. Personally, I'd have Lodge, Jake and Tevaga starting, with a combo of the rest on the bench. Bullemor, Taukeiaho and Aloiai are musts on the bench, and then it's a shootout between Navale, Brown, and Talau for the last spot. That's good depth now, considering we have lost Paseka.

 

[The Who]

I thought Jazz proved himself to be a more effective lock than Jurbo, who should now only be considered as a front-rower.

I thought we couldn't use Lodge until something like round 11

Whoops thought this was round nine... You're correct.

In that case I hope it's Jake and Taukeiaho as starting props. Aloiai off the bench, with Brown, Bullemor, and the remaining spot Navale vs Talau.

I think Talau will be selected ahead of Navale. Given Navale only got ten minutes, I figure we can afford a back on the bench.

Navale for Brown for mine. Time to move on from the old blokes

8. Jake T
9. Croker
10. TKO
11. Olak
12. Ben T
13. Jazz

14. Simpkin
15. Bullemore
16. Aloiai
17. Navale or Talau if Saab back.

This way we start with our best defenders Jake and Croker then bring on Simpkin, Bullemore after 20min to open the game up. Bring back the defenders in last 20 if we need to close out a lead.

If Seibold learnt anything we would not see Jake at 13.

Jazz to lock and Jake to front row please.
