Round 24 Team News: Joshua Stuckey to make NRL debut​

The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have updated their side to play the Cronulla Sutherland Sharks on Saturday August 27th at PointsBet Stadium, kicking off at 5:30PM AEST in Round 24 of the 2022 NRL Premiership.

After being named to start earlier in the week, Bulldogs forward Luke Thompson will miss this Saturday's Cronulla Sutherland Sharks fixture after testing positive to COVID-19.

Harrison Edwards will move off the bench into lock, with NSW Cup player Joshua Stuckey set to make his NRL debut.

Head Coach Mick Potter has opted to run with a new back row combination, with Stuckey joining captain Josh Jackson and Raymond Faitala-Mariner.

Other changes see local junior Chris Patolo promoted onto the interchange bench, alongside forwards Zach Dockar-Clay and Joe Stimson.

No TPJ and nothing in the injury ward

 

[Cosmo24]

That bench…..

 

[Family Guy]

Why change a side that got flogged 2 weeks in a row?

 

[MOVE.80]

That bench…..

My goodness its hideous

 

[Moedogg]

Fark me ! What a bench ...

 

[The__GM]

No TPJ. I'd love to see Topine and Morrin in for Edwards and Stimson. Also bring in Skelton instead of ZDC - ZDC shared minutes with JMK and offered nothing. I don't see the point in doing that.

 

[Moedogg]

Is Ava Seumanufangai gone for the year?

 

[underdogsontop2246]

Makatoa, Topine, Toia, Alamoti, Skelton, BBO and Morrin ROBBED!!!

 

[NPC83]

Hopefully Docker Clay gets dropped for Morrin.

 

[Moedogg]

That Harrison Edwards is an arm grabber.

 

[underdogsontop2246]

Edwards is shocking.

 

[surfdog]

Yup, that bench is going to see the Sharks pile the points on

 

[ddt192]

Putrid bench

 

[Malla]

TPJ lol
Please get rid of him Gus

 

[Baseball Furies]

Ffs that bench again and no TPJ??? Wtf?

Based on what I saw last week in NSW Cup alone, Morrin in/Edwards out, Skelton in/ZDC out and give Skelton some minutes off the bench.

 

[Suave]

Would love to know what the go is with TPJ. From the outside looking in seems like his chemistry with the team is pretty much non-existent. I smell another gigantic waste in salary cap space.

Morrin surely did enough last week to earn a spot in the 17 ahead some of those plebs on the bench.

 

[halfcast]

might as well give alamoti and skelton a go

 

[Rebuilding Phase]

I’m surprised Morrin isn’t being given a go in a few more games. I thought he was very impressive.

 

[Rebuilding Phase]

I really would love for this season to end right about now… the next two weeks will be rough I feel
