Our Pack vs Manly

Posted by Marty on July 13, 2020 at 8:12am

If Paulo is rested, Evans, Kaufusi, Stone are injured and let's say Stefano is hooked for covid breach, Waqa gets a week for great hit on the protected species, who we going to have fill the gaps?

8. RCG

9. Mahoney

10. Alvaro

11. Lane

12. Matterson

13. Cyborg

14. Niukore

15. Terepo

16. Gower

17. Davey

4. Takairangi / Salmon

7. Moses/ Field

I guess there are plenty of What if's & maybe's with Moses and Waqa, 

What are your thoughts against Manly who are shite lately.

    Oh boy are we on some trouble with our middle forwards

    Paulo, Evans, Terepo, Kaufusi, Stone, and Stefano all potentially out.

     

    Id go

    8 - RCG

    9 - Mahoney

    10 - Niukore

    11 - Lane

    12 - Matterson

    13 - Brown

     

    14 - Taka

    15 - Alvaro

    16 - Gower

    17 - anyone (they might not play any minutes)

    • Dean Widders Super Sub > Nitram July 13, 2020 at 9:23am

      Think you might be bang on, Andrew Davey hopefully gets a bench spot.

      • Marty > Dean Widders Super Sub July 13, 2020 at 10:37am

        Widders - there is also Makatoa who did well during 9's, got nrl experience, maybe he not in top 30 tho?

        Aug 3 is deadline to purchase... should we ? And if so, Who?

        • Dean Widders Super Sub > Marty July 13, 2020 at 1:51pm

          Yeah well I don't really watch much bulldog games, there's 1 particular player who I think really tries his hardest IMO and that's that Raymond Faitala-Mariner, for the right $$$ I think he would be a handy addition under BA and with our forward pack surrounding him but saying that I think we have a nice balanced team atm.

        • Tin Tim > Marty July 13, 2020 at 9:45pm

          We could go for both Canterbury players that were suspended. 

  • Marty July 13, 2020 at 10:35am

    Nitram - I like Niukore on Bench as he 'brings the fire and leg drive , otherwise a dour bench.

    Alvaro has a diesel motor so can go long minutes if required buuuut so god dam slow :( 

    • Nitram > Marty July 13, 2020 at 1:38pm

      I like Niukore on the bench too. My line up above is if 5-6 "middles" are out.

      Who would you have come in for Waqar if he gets a ban poppa, taka, Rankins or hunster? I think taka personally

  • Electric Eel July 13, 2020 at 8:33pm

    Paulo will be there and so will Moses.

  • Johnny B Good July 13, 2020 at 9:17pm

    I assume Paulo will play. If not, I don't think Nuikore is the answer up front. 

    I'd have.

    8. RCG

    9. Mahoney

    10. N Brown

    11. Lane.

    12. Matterson.

    13. Nuikore

    14. Salmon (assuming Taka plays centre and Moses is still injured)

    15. Gower.

    16. Alvaro.

    17. Davey (he's our last available forward).

    Lucky Manly's stocks are really low too. Their injuries are more key too. We should get the chocolates
