  My guess is that Paddy might be the 18th man, but we'll have to wait and see. 
  
  No Humble yet however.

  Those were my thoughts as well, I wouldn't mind Humble to move onto the bench as a utility at the expense of Manuokafoa.

  They're missing a certain former QLD and Aus representative prop by the name of Carl Webb. I'd have him instead of Manuokafoa.

  Humble is playing Wednesday so I guess he wasn't considered. Kearney is a goose putting maitua on the bench. Horo can't tackle. A lock that can't tackle well done Einstein.

  He obviously not in SK plans then Ricky?

  Not necessarily.
  I mean, it could be that Mooks thinks that Humble isn't ready, or that he wants to see a bit more from him for Wenty before he plays first-grade - but you'd have to imagine that he will get a chance in the coming rounds.
  
  @Fyno - makes sense if Paddy is the 18th man. Think he was the 18th man last week, but he ended up playing, so we'll see.

  kearney just has no idea.

   

  we might have a chance since benji is out but still.......................................................

   

  watch carefully the match ups , farah v keating

  farah will dominate the ruck. keating ....................

  watch carefully when shack and allgood-we will have no go forward. 

  watch manuokafoa play the webb/billy rogers role with 10 mins game time.

  i seriously dont get morgans selection either. he would not make first grade at any other team!!!!! FFS

  This is officially the worst centre pairing in the comp.
  I would prefer a Horo / Lasalo double act.
  The back row should be Maitua, Smith & Hindy.
  The bench should be Allgood, Shacks, O'Hanlon & Humble.
  The centres should be Horo & Walker.

  I would of preferred for Humble on the bench at the expense of Manuokafoa, Maitua left at five-eighth while Mcguire plays at halfback, and Filiga in the centres instead of Ben Smith.

   

  This is the side, in my opinion, would work the best:

  1. Jarryd Hayne

  2. Luke Burt

  3. Ryan Morgan

  4. Karl Filiga

  5. Jordan Atkins

  6. Reni Maitua

  7. Casey McGuire

  8. Tim Mannah

  9. Matt Keating

  10. Fuifui Moimoi

  11. Nathan Hindmarsh

  12. Taniela Lasalo

  13. Ben Smith

   

  Interchange:

  14. Tom Humble

  15. Mitchell Allgood

  16. Shane Shackleton

  17. Justin Horo

   

  Either way, fingers crossed for Friday night!

  Hopefully Humble has a blinder tomorrow, it'll do good towards him getting selected
