How do we field a competitive side based on our top 30?

Posted by Nitram on April 6, 2026 at 8:44pm
  • Mitchell Moses
  • ​Josh Addo-Carr
  • ​Will Penisini 
  • ​Jonah Pezet
  • ​Isaiah Iongi
  • ​Brian Kelly
  • ​Bailey Simonsson
  • ​Sean Russell
  • ​Joash Papalii
  • ​Ronald Volkman
  • ​Richard Penisini
  • ​Jake Tago
  • ​Jordan Samrani
  • ​Apa Twidle
  • ​Araz Nanva

1 - Twidle

2 - ?

3 - Kelly

4 - ?

5 - Addo-Carr

6 - Papalii

7 - Moses

 

It's even crazier considering Twidle is third choice fullback and Kelly was only picked because Penisini and Samrani are injured.

Positives:

- interested to see how Twidle goes.

- penisini and russell will be back the following week.

- Opinion- having two halfbacks doesnt work. Interested to see how we go with papalii at 6.

    Who the fuck is playing wing?

    • Eli Stephens > Joel K April 6, 2026 at 8:54pm

      That's why I'm thinkikg use Volkman in halves. Joash and apa to help backline. And prob Walker at centre lol. 

    • LB > Joel K April 6, 2026 at 8:58pm

      Isn't there a chance of Penisini being back next week?

      • EA > LB April 6, 2026 at 8:59pm

        JR said the week after in the press

      • Joel K > LB April 6, 2026 at 9:01pm

        Ryles said the week after, so to Russell

    • Who Cares > Joel K April 6, 2026 at 9:22pm

      Volkman will be 6 Twidle will be the other wing Papa at fullback

    • Trent > Joel K April 7, 2026 at 7:18am

      Volkman to 6

  • Muttman April 6, 2026 at 8:52pm

    We don't. We'll be fielding a reserve grade side at best.
