I have a fealling Sims will be guilty and Klem will start up front with Dan in Origin.
Vaun back to the bench again.

I'd prefer Klem to play against the Warriors though.
 
Laughing at the notion of Klemmer potentially playing for us because Freddy doesn't want to change a winning team even though Sims was the weak link in that forward pack.

If the nsw pack struggle you want Klemmer in there over Sims ten times out of ten because you just know Sims will go missing. Seen it happen too many times at the Knights lol

Their loss our gain I guess
 
The Warriors/Panthers game was bad. Warriors were terrible when Penrith had 2 players binned at the same time.

We should account for them even without Klem. Our middles are better, they have no structure in their backs and RTS is a shadow of his last years Dally M form. They tend to use their 2 oversized wingers as metre eaters to fairly good effect.

Lino and Gavet still have something to prove too methinks against their old mob. Ramien too will have a field day against either Herbert or Hiku if he gets early ball.

Sounds like Moga will come in to the side. Probably makes sense particularly if Klem does end up playing Origin we'll be pretty short on in the forwards.

Unlucky Lee's injury happened so late before the June 30 deadline. I don't like the idea of Moga yet being a 10+ week winger, while the coaches wouldn't like the idea of having a rookie in for that long either.
 
Gutted that Lee is out for so long, was having a ripper of a year for us.

I seriously hope that Sims gets of his charge so we have Klem playing for us, stuff origin and let's focus on the season instead.
 
Moga will play the game of his life if he gets a crack.
He got the lowest fantasy points of any starting player in reserve grade except Guerra, who went off after 3 minutes.
He is clearly just going through the motions in reserve grade, but he'll be trying to remind everyone that he is a quality player if he gets a chance, even if it's just to try to get a contract somewhere else.
He had 2 or 3 games in reserve grade where he was clearly miles better than anyone in that grade before he started just going through the motions.
I wouldn't be surprized if he were MOTM against the Warriors. He'll certainly give it everything he has, and when he tries, he's a big, angry guy.
 
Moga has plenty of holes in his game but carrying the ball strongly is not one of them. I expect everyone will be very happy with his tackle 2/3 runs coming out of yardage.
