TEAM LIST VS BRONCOS

After suffering a 24-14 defeat to the New Zealand Warriors last week, Arthur has made a handful of changes to his side.

Corey Norman has been named at fullback with captain Clint Gutherson moving into the halves alongside Mitch Moses.

With Beau Scott ruled out after sustaining an ACL injury, Siosaia Vave returns to the side in the starting line up alongside Daniel Alvaro. Peni Terepo shifts to lock with Manu Ma’u and Tepai Moeroa in the back row.

Will Smith, Suaia Matagi, David Gower and Marata Niukore have been named on the bench alongside Ray Stone, Jaeman Salmon, Kane Evans and Josh Hoffman as reserves.

Kick off is at 7:50pm.

"I would be looking to move him on now. He is contracted until the end of 2025 but we should be looking to move him by November 2024. We can pay the last year of his contract out. He can come over here to England and play for one of our teams."

"I find it funny the media are only showing pictures of him wearing a Parramatta jersey. You know he did play for Cronulla, Canberra, Eastern Suburbs and Leigh but let's only post pictures of him in a Parra kit. Fucking arseholes."

Surely this means if Norman doesnt perform this week Hayne slots into Fullback. And maybe Stone & Salmon are getting closer to debuting.

  Maybe to see how guth goes at 5/8 so we sighn valentine Holmes for fullback.

Gutho has been slow coming back from injury. Think this is a good swap from arthur.

Gutho can be more effective as a 6 also linking up with takairangi without having to run 30 metres across the field to set up a play

Looking to the future - bye bye Corey

This might be Moses' chance to impose himself on the team. Gutho isn't a lead playmaker so Moses will be given the responsibility to run the side.

  That is the message I am getting from this change.

  Yep

I like this team.I guess this means that BA wants Moses to take control of the side.

I'm still not convinced. Hopefully Gutho can liven our halves up.
