[Waylander]

The squad is up and a few changes are in from last week, with Jake in but Angus on the extended bench. I'm sure that will change before game day.

1. Tedesco
2. Tupuo
3. Morris J
4. Manu
5. Morris B
6. Keary
7. Flanagan
8. JWH
9. Friend (c)
10. SST
11. Cordner (c)
12. Tupouniua
13. Liu

INTERCHANGE:
14. Lussick
15. Collins
16. Butcher
17. SBW

RESERVES:
18. Chrichton
19. Aubbo
20. Faamausili
21. Hutchison

Chrichton is already in the 17 bro

Seen their backline!? A bunch of nobody’s.

This is not the team I saw.

Here is the official team.

Barring injury I think this is the GF 17 swapping Sitili and Crichton. If Lam becomes available then him in for Sitili.

1. James Tedesco
2. Daniel Tupou
3. Josh Morris
4. Joseph Manu
5. Brett Morris
6. Luke Keary
7. Kyle Flanagan
8. Jared Waerea-Hargreaves
9. Jake Friend
10. Siosiua Taukeiaho
11. Boyd Cordner
12. Sitili Tupouniua
13. Isaac Liu

14. Nat Butcher
15. Lindsay Collins
16. Angus Crichton
17. Sonny Bill Williams

18. Poasa Faamausili
19. Mitchell Aubusson
20. Freddy Lussick
21. Ryan Hall

On NRL Lussick is out. Crichton is #16. Personally, especially after last weeks performance I'd have kept Lussick in.

It looks like they are sacrificing this game.

[ChookMaster]

Would like to see Angus swap with sitili otherwise our strongest possible team. Unfortunately i can't see where aubbo can come in..

[Steakface]

Sadly there is no position for Aubo unless there is injury.

IMO the lack of a fast ball player off the bench (Lussick) is a shame.

Friend playing for 80 is always full of mistakes when he gets tired.

imo Aubbo needs to be the 14, he can cover every position and we need someone that can fill the 9 role if Friend needs a breather or more likely HIA

The 3 players that I could see making way come finals

Sitili - has been great all year but unfortunately we are trying to fit 3 guns into 2 spots with the backrow
Butcher - same as above, gets a bad wrap occasionally but does so much work that goes unnoticed
SBW - is SBW and we didn't sign him to run the water....

[Rooster_6]

I wouldn’t be surprised if we rest some players this week.

Aubusson to centre, Manu to fullback. Teddy rested.

SST rested, Farmer Silly into the 17.

Possibly Cords given a week off too as he’s doing it tough at the moment.

Makes sense to me.

The Tuesday team means very little.

Hmmm, not sure how I stuffed that up, either I transcribed it wrong or was looking at 2 different lists.

Anyway, it will be interesting to see what 17 we end up with this week.

Sportsbet has us at $1.10 and the Knights $7.00 with the line at 19.5.

I can see Manu rested and Sitilli under the rotation strategy. Both due a rest. FMD even Hall may score his first 2KY for the club against their backline

Naaah I’m dreaming
