So after 3 wins in a row we are in 10th place. We now play the 16th placed Titans before we have a bye next week.

We will need to choose a new 5/8 to replace Gamble and hopefully DSaf will escape suspension and Armstrong will be cleared to play.

If we win this game, we will have won 6 games this season and lost 5, after the bye we will be on 14 points and should be in the 8.

It’s been an amazing turnaround to our season after Kalyn’s injury. I don’t think anyone on here would have predicted it.

I think we'll drop this one. If Gamble is out I can't see Cogger providing that same grit and determination. Gamble competes on every play, Cogger is methodical but without any real execution so far for us.

He fit the Penrith system because he was given a simple role, but never really provided much X Factor, which was fine because they have it all over the park.

We don't share the same fortunes.

No Brimson or Foran could be a big turning point though, but I think we'll do the typical thing of patting ourselves on the back for winning the last 3 and subsequently lose one we should be winning.
 
Both sides have been up for a few weeks now, but the Titans have a few crucial injuries (not that we don’t, but they’ve got a weaker roster and side in general, so it’s more of an impact) and we have the advantage of just needing one last big effort before the bye. Then it’s off to Bali for some new tatts. 😂

So hopefully that’s enough to get us across the line.

Say they all get ruled out we’d prob go with

1. Armstrong
2. Jenkins/Moceidreke
3. Enari
4. Lucas
5. Marz
6. Cogger
7. Hastings
8. Hetherington
9. Brailey
10. Thompson
11. Kpp
12. Croker
13. Elliot

14. Crossland
15. Jones
16. Cartwright
17. Cant.

Can also rely on Jenkins centre Moceidreke wing and keep Lucas on edge. He and KPP do the full 80 pushing Croker back to bench and removing Cartwright or Cant.

Slim pickings. Need to win, need to believe in back up players. I’d maybe consider Mapalangi over Jenkins for centre too.

Kind of feels like we need another 6 or 7 players out before AOB gives Croker a run
