Team list Tuesday

[Ryan]

I'd love Cullen to beat out Api for the Hooking spot. He's unique. He's fast, uptempo (similar to Parcell explosion wise), and can pass a damned ball. I'm starting to like him as our favoured number 9

 

[maxta]

Is Jamil Hopoate available??
Would be in my top 17 even before losing players....Talented with that extra agility and imo, will handle the step up from day 1....X factor player 100%
Also agree with Amone - actually a very skillful player with decent pace.
Some of these older hacks that go through the motions, give the opposition a roll on and momentum....so much harder for the Tom, Walker, Kelly types to shine off the back of this.

 

[COMMANDER]

FMD is this site so poor we can't have a new thread for each round.

 

[Crusher_Cleal]

Why wasn't Hastings named? I'm very concerned about our bench..

 

[Pepi]

Cullen killed it on the weekend. Good to see reward for good form

 

[Fluffy]

What about sirronen to lock, Kennedy off the bench with Bainbridge chipping in along the front row if needed. Big dilemma will be if someone gets injured early.

Don't think Siro is really up the the middle field defensive task personally

 

[Fluffy]

I can see Jake shifting to prop when Kennedy comes on to keep the balance.

 

[Smokin Joe]

Cullen would be good off the bench but he is not a starting hooker,he would look like 5 week old roadkill after the match.He can't tackle front on or as a cover defender,he would have to defend behind the line and have Tommy defending in the line which causes other problems,if he defends in the line they will be running at him all day and he would be worn out and have no impact.

 

[Snake]

I heard there may be an


Matt Prior plays centre, lock and prop. I think we have that in young Jarrad Kennedy coming though, so actually think his mobility will be a step UP for us.

Lane is a fast, but huge body. Put it this way, he won't be a step back on Lloyd Perrett.

Jarrad Kennedy is not "young" and he is not "coming through"...he is a 28 year old career reserve grader.

 

[Shoe1]

Jarrad Kennedy is not "young" and he is not "coming through"...he is a 28 year old career reserve grader.

Compared to the "kid" who just loves his footy (31 year old Todd carney), surely Kennedy is a mere youth?

 

[Mals]

Lawrence and Myles would be the worst two props in the comp while poo is on the bench taking up valuable space

Tyrell is easily worse than both Lawrence and Myles.

 

[Holmsey]

Great to see Cullen given the bench spot. He will take Greens spot when he leaves I reckon. Cullen should be our 14 full time until Green leaves than give Cullen the 6.

 

[wombatgc]

Tyrell is easily worse than both Lawrence and Myles.

Nothing wrong with Lawrence. Myles on the other hand is a real concern.

 

[ricardo]

Loving your insight Joe, cheers

 

[FlyingHigh]

A bit concerned that Reynolds was named on their extended bench.

didn't see too many explosions from Parcell .... just a few farts

You guys should try meditation.

 

[Freagle]

Jarrad Kennedy is not "young" and he is not "coming through"...he is a 28 year old career reserve grader.

He HAS played over 50 games of NRL over the past 5 years... more a career bench and fill-in player I guess. Solid defender though I think. Will help us in the middle third this weekend.

He is the new Blake Leary...a smallish hairy hardworker with no talent.

hahaha love it when the media trot out the ol' "kid" line for grown men who behave like children!
