Round 1 team 99.9 percentile

Key points 

• Ryles won't debut Samrani and push Lomax out, too risky against Melb.

* Kautoga has been training in the back row since November in a battle with Guymer.

* Tuilagi won't be moved. Played ok against Newy 

* Williams has been a stand out and must start

* Hopgood can fill 9 if needed be.

* Cartwright inconsistent 

* Ryley Smith and Tuivaiti close. Great prospects

  • Smith cannot be named until he gets upgraded to a top 30 contract or supplementary deal (already have the maximum of 6)

    • Unless say Kautoga is already upgraded to top 30, which would not surprise me, since he appears on Parramatta site.

    • I think Tuilagi is going to be named regardless of his performance against Tigers. But maybe just bring him on from the bench. Let Williams start on the edge and he can shift to the middle later. I highly doubt this will happen.
    • I cannot tell if Guymer or Kautoga have won the other edge spot.
    • I want Smith upgraded to top 30 and play him at 14.
    • The 1-5 from the Tigers game won't change.

    • To be fair EA had Guymer won the spot he would have started over Cartwright. Reckon Kautoga has it.

    • Close to what I would have. I would swap kelma with katauga on the bench. Guymer starting. Papali starting on the wing instead of Tago. I am sure Jr has a plan! 

      • The heading is amazing on this blog, 99.9%.....do you understand what a percentage is Chiefy or his McLovin guiding you with your second head?

        • The 99.9th percentile is a strangely specific place...it is also a lonely place so no Mclovin

        • I'll give you something around percentages ploppa, most members on this site would regard you as an absolute halfwit.  

  • Not impressed with Carty and maybe he might move on not sure. Greig isn't that great, neither Lussick or Hands. Smith is better than Hands at this stage. Few decisions to be made before round one.

  • Hopgood will not be on the bench, he will be starting lock.
