Okay , so the Frog , straight back in.

Feel sorry for Simpkin as I think he’s been going great guns , and interesting to see the Gordie 3 names as displaced him for the 14 spot.

It’s a fair side , but not easy away v Raiders
Not happy about Simpkin being named in reggies,think the team has looked a lot more dangerous with him at 9 and apart from the Roosters game,the team had averaged around 15-16 points against in the games Simpkin’s was there,better than Penrith and Storm during that period.Oh well,that’s why the coach/selection committee are on the big bucks
 
Would like to see more ballplay from Brown this week, we looked very pedestrian against the Rooster's, just that one offload or pass helps us get on the front foot
 
Happy Karl Kawton keeps his spot at second row. Think its the correct lineup overall.

Only argument would be Gordie or Simpkin for 14, but Gordie put in a massive shift and did well against the roosters so I’m all good seeing him keep his place.
 
I hope they swap brown for toff in the 13. I think brown and bullemor off the bench together has worked really well all year. Don’t think Brown is big enough to start against fresh forwards. Has less impact with his running game.
They've swapped Brown and Sipley on game day twice this year. I think it might just be a message to Toff on the pecking order.
 
Simpkin should be 14
He's better than croker in attack
We won't look as sharp in attack this week
Agree, but all is not lost yet. Simpkin is in reserves and when the team list is cut on Friday, just maybe he's swapped with Gordie at 14. Would prefer Sips and Brown are swapped too.

Good to see Lehi is back early. A shame that Aloiai's out or we would almost be full strength.

Overall, a pretty good team. Fingers crossed!

By the sound of seibs last week croker was always back in the 17 this week. So i am assuming gordo does offer a point of difference, whilst simpkin and froggy are pretty similar. Not a huge fan of gordo but he has been improving. Jake can count himself unlucky.
