Christopher petrus time?

Posted by Roy tannous on August 31, 2026 at 5:57pm

Ryda and jeziah have made there debuts.What about petrus now.Itll do him a world of good if he got some game time next week and if we're looking towards the future.Wouldnt hurt considering we're playing for nothing and already out of finals contention.

Can't see why not, win, lose or draw, we stay where we are.

But is it within the rules might not be eligible

I'd just play Funa, Talagi and Talataina. Maybe Lokeni.

Twidle, Kelly, Penisini, Russell, Addo-Carr, Talataina, Moses, Brown, Da Silva, Moretti, Funa, Kautoga, Pryke.

Edwards, Talagi, Williams, Lokeni

We cant play any farewell players like kelma

Give as many young guys as possible a shot

Id even leave out walker

I would prefer lokeni first.

I mean he is an edge, but he is missing tackles in cup. Might not be anywhere ready. Though also it is a nothing game.

  I dont think Lokeni is an edge player at all even though he does play there same as JFI.. Unfortunately our edge stocks are low.. We dont have anyone like the Wahs or Knights..
  
  I would love someone to step up like that Foketi kid at the Roosters...

It'd be an amazing jump up from SG Ball at the start of the year to first grade. Ryda did that jump this year, but he debuted in NSW Cup last year and has played 18 games and Petrus has only played 5 in cup.

Neither Talagi or Petrus should have made their debut this year in my opinion.

    Haven't some been critical of him that he sort of has the attitude that he knows he's good and doesn't really need to work on his craft? If that makes sense. Like he rises for big occasions but not all the time?
    
    Seeing how off the pace he was keeping up, that's a nice wake up call for him.
