yeah, under the current climate you'd almost hope he was out for a week or two more cos of the ankle than still recovering from the head knock

Still a handy Bears line up even with the call ups through injuries.

Fixed it for you.

Other teams seem to play concussed players the following week on a regular basis, we seem to be the only one's who take it seriously

Will be an emotional one for Newtown this weekend mate with the passing of Tommy

[DP1990]

Yeah nah ... the 21 man squad being named on a Tuesday arvo doesn't mean much. I think Nat Butcher will start (replace Tupouniua - HIA protocol means he'll have this round off maybe the next as well because that's the Roosters caring way !). Daniel Suluka-Fifita will be on the bench unless Robbo doesn't pick him this week for further disciplinary reasons then most-likely Eagan Butcher will take the bench spot.


Joseph Suaalii to warm up and go through the pre-game stuff with the squad as he did in round #4.

Tommy was one of the toughest little men to have played the game. I remember in his last test with the game winding down he fed the scrum and started a blue as he thought it was his last chance to hit a pommy. Genuine character and icon of the game. He had a tremendous will to win , crafty halfback who could tackle like a forward.

Well said mate - one of the greatest competitors and characters of the game

[Rooster90]

I have a feeling Tupouniua will miss this week, and Egan Butcher will make his debut with Nat starting.

Baker & JWH are both middles so will want someone that can cover the edge. Fifita might be in the doghouse for the next few weeks it seems.

[zac]

baker played well but you'd figure dsf is still ahead of him in the pecking order
