T-Red

[GraEddie]

hate to say it but with the team playing like they did the 1st half of round1, and all of round 2 it will be bloody hard to see him make the side at this stage. 2V has some tough calls to make re our bench in the coming weeks. With Gifty coming back there will be trouble just making a bench spot.

King
Buhrer
Hassan
Lui
JSL
T-Red
and when Snake and Jorge are back we then throw in
Hiku
Blair

I actually think 2V needs to change the bench depending on which teams we play…big packs like Souths, Roosters, Dogs, Sharks we will need size but other teams we may need more spark…

Watching the replay again of the Souths game, we need King for sure, then I really don't see how we could leave out JSL…he is big, fit and strong, then Lui as well….maybe Hassan and T-red miss out...

 

[Silver Eagle]

Id say once everyone gets back our bench will be King, Buhrer, T-red, Lui

 

[Fluffy]

if T red gets back to form he will be on the bench and putting pressure on Horo, he just needs an injury free run

 

[castle eagle]

you're forgetting our new 'Sea Eagles recruit' Epalahame Lauaki.
can't wait to hear how you pronounce his name in full.

Chee Kam isn't far from fitness either. He trained the house down and Toovey said he was the one to watch out for earlier in the year. Plenty of depth. Its a great squad we have. Plus Sao and Turbo if needed.

 

[Daddycool08]

What a wonderful problem to have.

Too many people and too few positions.

 

[Silver Eagle]

Hopefully with all these players that cant crack 1st will will strength our nsw cup team

 

[Townsville Eagle]

Hopefully with all these players that cant crack 1st will will strength our nsw cup team

If they don't move on due to lack of opportunity.

It would be harsh for Blair to miss a wing position cause he looks big and strong out there on the edges and did some darn good things in the rabbits game.

The Epilator- tears strips off the Opposition 😛

I agree with this but until either Wolfy or Horhay lose form Blair will be in NSW Cup.

 

[Terry-Randal]

Tooves won't have to worry cause of injuries suspensions and rep duties will happen all year round.

 

[Manly To Win!]

Once Symonds returns, Horo should be dropped for a week or so, his form's been atrocious.

 

[TWO DOGS]

Once Symonds returns, Horo should be dropped for a week or so, his form's been atrocious.

I thought he had a tremendous game against Souths.

 

[Mal Cochrane]

i actually started a thread as to whether Horo was our best option, but atrocious is harsh. Tremendous is fantasy.

 

[Masked Eagle]

I like T-Red, but unless Tooves changes his tactics up a bit, last year he really robbed minutes off Buhrer and he just needs game time to become an important piece of the puzzle for us.
