[Ever Hopeful]

On the NRL's site it has both Kata and Vete out indefinitely with injury on their casualty ward list. The list was updated last night?

I'm hoping they are out of date like usual, but I don't remember Solomone ever having an injury

It also has Granville out, which I'm pretty relieved about given his acelleration and energy near the line rips us a new one every time we play against him.

 

[Lord Gnome of Howick MBE]

Foran to do a Hayne?

 

[Rick O'Shay]

Foran to do a Hayne?

Like, turn up in Townsville? (Just passing through)

 

[Akkerz]

Like, turn up in Townsville? (Just passing through)

Now that would be handy.

 

[Jordan G]

Even if Foran was willing and ready to go he wouldn't be allowed because it's after June 30.

 

[Tedster]

Fusitua to fullback then and tui to intrust cup..... Asyshford back to centre.

HEAD COACH | ANDREW McFADDEN

 

[Lets Gone]

Lolohea dropped, hopefully he gets a run at 6 for NSW Cup

 

[Rotang]

Ayshford, Gavet and Afoa back. Fan favorites, and I hope they have great games.

 

[wazzas]

I wonder if Matulino will be used on the edges or will Lisone, would like for them both to get an opportunity there just to spice up our attack a bit. Mutts has always said he prefers back-row to front-row as well.

 

[Run_it_str8]

Fusitua to fullback then and tui to intrust cup..... Asyshford back to centre.

Hopefully this provides some stability for Tui. He's been doing it tough at fullback this season so here's hoping Ata Hingano shapes up as the future because I do tend towards Tui leaving at the end of this season unless he can reinvent himself as a specialist something else

 

[Miket12]

Muscle and size on the bench? What is the world coming too?

 

[Inruin]

Lolohea dropped, hopefully he gets a run at 6 for NSW Cup

No, it will be the 'injury' that 'forced' him from the field during the game hasn't recovered enough and so we 'had' to leave him out.

Have to protect fragile egos and confidence.

 

[ToiletDuck]

Nah Cappy is quoted as saying he's gone back to work on his confidence and to get a run in the halves. So yeah it appears he's been dropped and will be playing in the halves, assuming Stacey Jones is on board with this plan.

 

[Jordan G]

Quick someone check on Matt Johns to make sure he's ok with this.

 

[Tylz]

The team that should've been named 4 weeks ago.

 

[eric]

How are the players notified if they've been selected? Is there a sheet outside the coach's office that they all gather around at 5pm Tuesday's? Or a more modern way? it would've been a tad awkward today...

 

[Makasene]

I support it - If he is the future in the halves then he has to play there - Looked woefully out of his depth at fullback.

 

[TheFullback]

Hmmm like some of those changes not sure about some faces staying but will see, not too optimistic for a result esp at townsville cowboys notoriously hard to beat there
