  thats good for keating, if he plays well for wenty chuck him straight into the first grade side the following week , i hope fui plays, we need him. feleti is great but we dont want him coming into the team because of an injury to a front rower. and a beast of a front rower at that

  i would prefer to see latimore come onto the bench if moimoi is out. i dont know why wright took his bench spot in the first place?
  
  as for mateo, if he is fit to play, then play him ! if not then dont ! simple. it shouldnt have to be at the expense of moimoi.

    I think Latimore played himself out of Blue and Gold colours in that Penrith game... Personally, I think Wright has excelled since that game. His line speed is brilliant, he works hard and he's even joining in with the off-loads now.
    
    I'd like Mateo in the side, too. As I say in the match preview, if we get behind I don't know if we have enough points of attack to make a come back. As well as Ben Smith is playing, I'd still prefer to have Mateo at my disposal off the bench if the situation calls for it.

      I think you are right about Latimore 1Eyed, he was given an offer, but that offer has since been removed off the table

  hmm. i do like wright as of late, i just thought latimore with his size offerered that little bit more in terms of attack.
  
  well if we get behind we have hayne lol. but i know wot ur saying, lets hope it doesnt get to that!

  moimoi will pull thru, he has the last 2 weeks under serious doubt. his a warrior. i hope mateo comes in for someone else.

    Yeh, I agree. Big game he won't want to miss it. I reckon they would need a lock him down with chains to stop him going out there

    i dont think i'd bring mateo and keating into the side in the same week, rather than cut 2 players, just ease keating and mateo back into the side. i would of liked to see keating named in this game, then mateo in a week or 2
