You can't go into games playing under the assumption that he's going to get injured. Us fans can because we don't pick the side, but it spells disaster and a lack of confidence if the coaching staff does it.

Oh I agree but........ if he does get injured again Des would be hammered if he didn't have cover. Mind you - Garrick could go to FB - Schuster to Centre and Harper to wing so maybe cover not needed

Titans are a bogey team for us and the way they smashed the Knights today with Fifita virtually unstoppable we are in for a tough gig next Saturday in Mudgee !
If we at least compete and are not blown away by the score line then i can cop that next weekend, titans are a good team but were not really tested or put under any sort of pressure today.
think simliar scoreline to yours
titans 38-12

That's what I said when I saw
Toovey play for the first time.
Bring back the.... Biff?

That pack is too good. Way too goof

In case he gets injured? Are we talking about the same Turbo?

If everyone is so convinced that he'll get injured again, why bother even picking him?

Surely medical retirement if another lengthy time out. We could throw 900k for Papenhausen and still have money to spare for decent depth

I'm very sorry mate. I hate to, but have to disagree with you. Turbo is our weapon. There's no use keeping him locked up while the team builds resiliance. This may or may not happen without him. I think the team will lift knowing that they've got a missile on their side. If he is fit let him play.

Turbo declared fit and ready after passing a secret fitness test today.

He will make us so much more dangerous in attack right across the park.
The better Robbo
Bencher
Olakau-atu up against Fafita = exciting
If Haumole is fit he will have to come in, but that will be a big assignment lining up opposite Fifita. The whole pack, indeed out whole team, are going to have to work hard as a unit to try limit his chances.
I wonder if Des would move our best defender to mark Fifita?

Ah yesss, the secret fitness test. I heard he had to bend over on the bathroom mat and pick up a cake of soap
Just let fifita run past and give him an ankle tap.
Simple!

Fifita must be due to help police with their inquiries again soon, hopefully it's this week.
Secret.
Because no one else in the entire rugby league world, living or dead, might have imagined Tom would be having a fitness test.
