6. Mullen
7. Dureau
8. Taufua
9. De Gois
10. Tolar

14. Rogers
15. Paterson
16. Fa'aoso
17. Wicks
 
Dureau can't have been benched without an injury, because Rogers was still out there, and he was going terribly!

I wouldn't have Rogers in first grade next week, put Gidley at 5/8 and keep McDonnell at fullback, he was our best player tonight by miles. Unless Mullen and Dureau are both fit, of course.

Vuna and McManus both into the side if fit. Uate was terrible, how long can we keep him in the side? If Smith told him he was on his last chance, then I reckon he blew it tonight.
 
If Mullen and Dureau are both fit it has to be

6. Mullen
7. Dureau

I think Rogers is a better utiliy then 5/8 he should be on the bench instead of Naiqama

If Dureau is out then

1. McDonnel
6. Gidley
7. Mullen

And Tolar has to come in for Karawana [ had his worst game v manly]

As for the wings McManus has to come in for Lulia and don't care out of Vuna and Uate both can be very good and very average, but Vuna deserves a shot

WE HAVE TO WIN THIS GAME

Agreed!

The back line and bench def. needs a shake up. We had no impact off the bench last night.
 
I can't wait till Saturday when we play the roosters it will be my first time being able to watch the knights live at the ground this year because i live in QLD so

CMON NEWCASTLE
 
Karawana cannot get picked after his 2 pathetic drop balls which both lead to tries in the next set

RE: Mr Dureau

Something tells me he was axed halfway through the 2nd half tonight. A couple of reasons why:

- Ran into the posts (I know not his fault) which pretty much gifted Manly a try.
- Missed the tackle on George Rose
- Threw that cut out to Aku who then went over the sideline.
- Was sitting on the bench looking rather p*ssed off.

I dont think Dureau is up to it really. He plays well wen things r good but if the tide turns he makes heaps of mistakes.

Yep, too bad he was playing with a hamstring and hip injury last night and was still one of our best.

Yep. Thats why Ben Rogers kicked out on the full by 20 metres when we were up. Yet Scott gets a 40/20 to maintain pressure.
