As the title states, I think Parra will beat the sharks irrespective of who plays in the centres - so why not give one of the young guys a go?
I think we need to find a solution to Waqa Blake/ B Furguson debacle and think Waqa's injury is a blessing in disguise. Would we have beaten the Strom if Waqa played?
I'd love it if Penisini or Dunster got a run there. They are unlikely to be any worse than Waqa in defence.

There's no doubt that the weather helped Niukore, Justin Olam would've been limited in his footwork, not that he uses much, so yes I'm in favour of giving Will Pensini the 3-5 weeks that Waqa Blake is out, just to give him a taste of it. I still think that Waqa is our best option though if everyone is fit.
Sharks should not be taken lightly. They really should of beaten the Raiders and they are going to come out hard next weekend. I think it would be great to give Penisini a run as Marata off the bench with Parra Papa would be awesome to see.
I'm not taking Sharks lightly. I agree they have been good. However, we are at home again, our form is good too and our roster is better.
I don't think sticking Penisini or Dunster in our backline is going to be the difference between winning or losing.
The Sharks are playing tough. They won't be easy.
Agreed they were tough against raiders
They're playing tough but they're also playing dumb. They look like us at the end of last year. Going wide early with no middle threat. Brailey is a good hooker. Kennedy is solid but I think we have the forward pack to belt them up their own end.
True, but the Eels aren't immune to playing dumb either.
Bushy's favourite go to comment last half of 2020
"We played dumb." "We played some pretty dumb football out there." "We played dumb footy for too much of the match: etc etc blah blah.
100%
I think we should go into this game close to unchanged. Pensini goes to centre, Nikoure back to the bench and Hipgrave out. I'm really liking what Will Smith has been adding from the bench.
