Danny Buderus stated that he’s alright so he should be okay for next week.I wouldn't be surprised if Pearce can't play next week.
He looked really groggy.
Isn't Ponga out for another week? Didn't he get 2?
1 Ponga
2 Hunt
3 Tuala
4 Brad Best
5 Lee
6 Hoy
7 Pearce
8 Klemmer
9 McCulloch
10 DSaf
11 Sione
12 Fitz
13 Eseese
14 Randall or Watson if completely fit - don't play him injured
15 JSaf
16 Glasby
17 Guerra/Jones
Lino would have kicked those 2 goals Hoy missedCan’t change that team from tonight.
I’d start McCullough just to keep Randall hungry and a rest.
Mann was good defensively, and that’s what will matter most. Say Lino played 5/8, we probably lose.

He would have let in two 4 pointers.

Yeah I said two haha.Similar to Mann letting in that 4 pointer?
Mann was shocking.
Yeah, yeah.. We know you don't like him.Similar to Mann letting in that 4 pointer?
Mann was shocking.
How poeple are dropping Mann after that game is beyond me, got thrown in the deep end in the primary playmaker role which he has no experience in and handled himself quite well.
Yes he lacked execution a few times in offense but was tremendous in defence considering the size of those penrith boys compared to him. He is our number 6 for the year surely
You are probably right.This is certainly the team for me. But OB won’t drop Mann because he did his best tonight and it was his lack of talent that cost us, not effort. But that same lack of talent has got him in the team three rounds in a row so unfortunately he ain’t going nowhere (yet).
You are probably right.
Thinking about it, O'Brien mentioned again in the pre-match that hoy would make a good bench utility like Watson, and he said that after the 9s as well, so it won't surprize me if he drops Randy and uses Hoy at 14 - assuming Watson is out, but Watson would play with his foot put on backwards if we asked him to. He plays injured nearly every game.
