Coach: Trent Robinson

[TheRock]

No surprises, obviously.

However, Aubo might start, Guerra to lock and SST to the bench?

[Tommy Smith]

I reckon SKD will be an inclusion.

Matagi could also come in for JWH, whose partner is due any day. And I still reckon Friend might get a rest.

[Burnt Rooster]

Aubbo penalised for 2 dumb penalties , hopefully a wake up call for others in the team

[JAF]

Not sure why anyone needs a rest, as all players have now had at least 1 week off. Now is the time to consolidate combinations and prepare for the finals.
The whole team will get a rest when we win in week 1 of the Finals!

he also copped a grade 1 dangerous tackle charge which leaves him with 93 carry over points.

[Tommy Smith]

It was a soft charge. They're going way over the top with the dangerous throw charges.

How Aubos is viewed the same as Blake Austin's last week I'll never know.

[Kingsgrove-Loiner]

Looks a very strong team again.

There's no way Robbo will let us ease off this week. We're $1.90 giving away 18.5 with Sportsbet. - it's like stealing money.

Cue the naysayers......

I thought both were unlucky. The first was a classic tackle gone slightly wrong. The second no one will be able to convince me that's a strip, his intention is to lock up the ball and in the struggle by the attacker to free his ball carrying arm the ball has come loose, refs always favour the attacking side... It's my pet hate .

I'll be stoked to see SKD run out in the warm up and ready to play.

Yes - releasing the ball in that situation is a guaranteed penalty for the milkers. The other favourite is walking off the mark and falling into the marker.

I am with you 66, twoof my pet hates in the game , one shows no respect or the ball , the other is just out an out cheating, it take the markers out of play, acts as a block pay for the dummy half o scoot, shortens the 10M , leaves players in an off side postition after the PTB.

The best examples of that are southern and cronulla, they constantly walk off the mark a long way and have the markers penalised

yep souffs walk sideways to play the ball

They should have copped a week to get rid of the carry over points.
