20. Lindsay Collins

21. Chris Smith

For the Storm Cameron Munster is still missing so that's one less huge threat.

If we are to win then Manu-Mitchell will have to defend well. They'll see more traffic than a highway with Slater sweeping behind in their direction.

No one expects us to win so it's a free hit really.

[Easts75]

I've got a feeling we will hit back very hard. I'm not saying we will win but i think we will be in the game for a long time. Get our confidence back, win the last three and then you never know

[Tommy Smith]

I'd probably take a 2 pt loss.

It doesn't hurt our F&A and gives the boys confidence that they can compete with the best.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Quality bench.

Looking forward to this one.

[novice chook]

Would have preferred Matterson starting and Guerra on the bench, but other than that, it's the best team we have available.

Not confident of a win, but hopeful of a spirited performance.

[Thirteen]

Manu and MItchell on the same side. Can't be a good thing.

[BallyChook]

Manu and MItchell on the same side. Can't be a good thing.

I'd swap Ferguson to the same side as Mitchell and pair Manu with Aubo.

[zac]

Let's go down there and blast the pricks off the park.
Let's upset the apple cart.

[Horry]

Manu and MItchell on the same side. Can't be a good thing.

Smoke and Mirrors??

[Guest]

its the best we can offer under the circumstance

[Vasco]

Surely Ferguson moves to left wing.

Aubo will strengthen our defence in the centres.

[eddie]

I hope it remains 1 through 17.

[mattyh]

We could possibly spring an upset , smart money is on storm but im hopeful

Good to see that SST is OK and will play... The way to stop the Storm is to stop Smith so I would would put someone to spoil his passing as much as possible. If Gordon was playing I'd have Watson on Smith like cheap suit for the whole game. Spoil spoil spoil ...

So if Gordon was playing where would you have Watson playing in order for him to harass Smith all game? Seems to me if Gordon was available Watson would be on the bench at best and I don't think his 3 minute stint would worry Smith to much!
