[Daustin]

Hmm holland at wing

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Hopefully Abbey slips in for Holland, Faitala Mariner to 2nd row Eastwood to lock, Klemmer to bench or swap with Toleman and Elliot gets an acl before kick off and Tualau comes in lol. If not fuck my life but I will still bleed blue and white I suppose round 1 yew yew

 

[KLil]

Lol.. so basically the whole squad is playing.

 

[dhoo8450]

New nrl rules stipulate that clubs have to name a 21 man squad..

 

[Dogna88]

Will be 1-17

 

[BELMORE]

Lol.. so basically the whole squad is playing.

No, 17 players... every team is required to name a 21 man squad

 

[Spoonman84]

Holland is going to get torched by Addo Carr and the high ball.

 

[tyl0r]

Lol.. so basically the whole squad is playing.

nrl says 21 man squad is named on Tuesday then a 19 man squad 24 hours before kick off

 

[Phalangist]

Hope abbey plays and not Holland

 

[finchie]

Players 18-21 are not cover for anyone.
They are new rules by the NRL which stipulate that a 21 man squad be announced by 4pm Tuesday and only players from that 21 can be chosen on game day for the final 17.

So no more bullshit games or late inclusions etc

 

[Dogna88]

if Mbye is not 100% then i can see frawley playing in replace of elliott on the bench as insurance

Maybe. The new team announcement rules are rubbish tbh. Pretty much until 24hours before kick off, the team is undetermined

 

[finchie]

No big surprises
Brenko and holland will interchange throughout the game

Just a lil upset at tuamaga not having a run off the bench in place of Elliot or that other dud fualolo

 

[Blueandwhiteblood1968]

How does Garvey's name even get mentioned, one of the most useless players in the history of the club.

 

[Mr Invisible]

Why even bother naming a side with this 21 player shit.

Completely fucks up all other grades squads too.

More fucking nonsense from the NRL.

Name 18 (17 + 1 for late injury) and be done with it.

 

[KiwiDog7]

Better than an hr before kickoff

 

[KiwiDog7]

Could have named this team in November lol predictable

 

[KLil]

Yeah just heard those new rules.
