[Harry Oz]

Assuming Hopoi comes onto the bench for Preston, the question is who starts out wide?
Hayes or Salmon?

 

[Mann of the hour]

I’m really nervous about this one ! It will be a real test of our grit and determination. Hopefully we can get off to a good start and play an expansive brand of footy. If we get into the grind with them I feel like the raiders might be to strong through the middle !

But praying the doggies come away with the win

 

[Mann of the hour]

Assuming Hopoi comes onto the bench for Preston, the question is who starts out wide?
Hayes or Salmon?

I’d go with Hayes !

 

[Raikkonen]

Knowing Ciraldo, he'll put Salmon there and have Hayward and Mann rotate at lock.

 

[Scoooby]

I’d go with Hayes !

I’m definitely Reading Between the Lines bro…. It’s a fucking NRLOL circus - agenda driven - absolute CLOWN affair.

 

[Cook]

If raiders beat us they be on same points but with a bye in hand. This is a big challenge for our boys, no excuses. Well there a couple excuses, yet team that runs out can still get it done

 

[Bullfrog2]

Got a feeling Burton may start in the back row!

 

[CBDog]

All we need is to be on the same shit the Raiders evidently were full of.
Drug testing is non existent, especially the 'water' bottles the runners have
to top up the tiring players,

 

[SARGE]

CC will pick

8. King
9. Mahoney
10. DSF
11. Kikau
12. Salmon
13. Hayward

14. Mann
15. Hayes
16. Morrin
17. Hopoi

I would personally have

13. Mann

14. Hayward

 

[CaptainJackson]

Salmon will be out wide

If we put Hayes out wide, we don't have a big body on the bench

 

[TheDogsarebarking]

They will bring up the presto thing tonight surely , buzz will have his two cents. What we think guys will nrl want Preston playing or will they deny him at judiciary

I’m gonna say this is the game he brings hutch on the bench

 

[SARGE]

I’m gonna say this is the game he brings hutch on the bench

Used at lock?

 

[TheDogsarebarking]

Used at lock?

Yeah tbh he could be what we need as we will attack through the middle I reckon maybe these smaller forwards will be what matches the raiders but last time we scored all our points out wide. Backline battle will be good to watch but we need burton and sexton to kick really well! Bomb the fuck out of that fullback as he is electric in space but I’ve watched all these games they’ve played and he has dropped a few high balls

 

[KiwiDog7]

If Preston misses this game then it’s an uphill battle cos if Salmon is on that edge defensively he will be sound but offers absolutely fk all on attack.

I would put Hipoi there because what the point in making him do all the reps at training and NSW cup in back row …this is the next man up call Ciro always speaks about so be about it and put him there

I would actually play our best spine player, Mann, at lock.

We score 95% of our points when he is on the field (or at least feels like it)

 

[LeeroyJenkins]

Salmon will be out wide

If we put Hayes out wide, we don't have a big body on the bench

Hayes isn't big, he just has a ginormous neck.

It’s no coincidence our attack asks more questions when he is on the field and we score more points !

I legit predicted what would happen yesterday to my brother, exact words "Mann will come on, rip shit up, we score 3 tries and then he will come off".
