Round 23: Newcastle Knights vs Wests Tigers

[knights22]

Has Brown forgotten that Hunt is a centre? Surely we'd be better running Hoy on the wing with Hunt at centre.

I'd hate to be the tigers this week boys would slaughter the Australian team this week for Brown.

Best is going to play left wing outside Hunt.

Tigers side shouldn't get anywhere near us on paper but I said that last time.

Alas slots they don't play it on paper.

Lordie, I hope the boys play for their own pride this week against the Tigers.

We know Brownie has been attributed with some monumental rotational blunders, but the team needs to acknowledge that as a collective they needed to make the most of the opportunities afforded them as well.

 

[Grandpa Joe - Prev Lord]

I don't think there is much doubt his universally loved by 99% of the squad especially Ponga, Klemmer and Pearce, sure they'll be fired up.

 

[Wobbles]

Best is going to play left wing outside Hunt.

Reckon he'll be named to start? Can't see them carrying a winger on the bench for a cameo

 

[Frank McWilliams]

If so then right centre will be Sione with Moga dropped?

Yes Toohey said he will start at left wing outside Hunt. Right side same as last week.
Moga is out injured.

Best kills it the next 2-3 weeks, does this spell trouble for SKD?

Best has played a lot of fullback and centre and only a handful of games on the wing.
I think he's only on the wing to ease him into the team, and longterm he will play centre, or if he keeps growing, second row.

SKD is still the best winger at the club imo but that will be one of many questions for the new guy.

 

[Kurriboy]

Toss of the coin this weeks game still is.

They have had plenty to play for in the past and not turned up, so not sure Brown news will be much different a motivator.

I hope we come out and belt them away from home. Will stand us in good stead for the Penrith game.

 

[Frank McWilliams]

So correct me if I am wrong but Bradman Best is being talked about as making his debut on left wing outside Hunt, Sione is playing right centre inside SKD with Moga out injured. Did I read somewhere that Moga was injured prior to team announcement so why is he listed to play left centre.
Is this further uncertainty with team selection and why we are in transit with coach.

 

[krustykraz]

Moga and Mann out of the squad.
Glasby into the 17, Buhrer and Randall still in the squad.

I feel relieved that Mann has been dropped.

So with Mann out could we see Buhrer or Randall in for say King.

 

[Billy]

Randall has been training with the top squad for about a month. I assume because he is our next hooker if we need one.
I think Brown would love to give Randall a short spell off the bench in case we have to drop him into a final team to debut if the worst happens.

 

[Billy]

Mann has been playing injured for half the season.
He could use a few weeks off.
