Your Team v Sharks

K.Naiqama would be 10000/1. Likiliki has done squat since he's been here. Simon Williams I would hope.

Added after 2 minutes:
It would have to be someone in our top 35 wouldn't it? otherwise we would have to add them to our cap?? Not sure how it works. But as far as i know Likiliki and Naigama are the only backs left if maddog is out?
 
If Gidley hasn't recovered from his injury we could see Shannon Mcdonnell at fullback. He has solid earlier in the year and deserves another shot in FG.

Unfortunately McDonnells out injured. He had surgery and is out for the season which isn't good, he was playing well for us and would of come in handy this week.

There is a top 25, which is what the $4.3million cap is for. Their is also the second tier cap of $400k which everyone else has to fall into. I'm not sure paying Simon Williams a few grand to play one game is going to get us in trouble with the second tier cap.
 
If Gidley, Sau, MacDougall and Wes are out, this is the team i would go with.

01. Peter Mata'utia
02. James McManus
03. Siutonga Likiliki
04. Keith Lulia
05. Aku Uate
06. Jarrod Mullen
07. Ryan Stig
08. Evarn Tuimavave
09. Isaac De Gois
10. Antonio Kaufusi
11. Neville Costigan
12. Chris Houston
13. Matt Hilder

14. Tyrone Roberts
15. Dan Tolar
16. Richie Fa'aoso
17. Joel Edwards

I love how people just choose players from reserves with no idea of how they're playing ...

But they are the only answer to our woes!!!
 
Its a fair call anyone who thinks he couldn't make a devastating fullback would be a fool..
Its not a matter Of thinking he Can't play FB, But why play him there when we have mata'Utia and possibly Gidley available?

I'm referring more to people who want to drop established first graders for reserve grade players that they have no idea about their form or anything. My apologies if the posters concerned have been showing up to NSW Cup games, or watching the one game every two months that's in Fox.

Nobody has said anyhting about costigan.... when i saw him yesterday he was terrible(pushing passes, errors etc...) but in saying that i would say everyone but faas, stig and roberts were
 
Why is there so much hate towards Likiliki playing? 5 months ago everyone was saying "Mata'utai shouldn't be signed, he's not a first grade player" before he had even played a game.

and McManus for fullback!

They do have quite a few games on Radio though. But I doubt many on here listen to the games consistently, except Billy and a few others.

It was the same with KOD at the start of the year. People wanted him to get a call up, but you only had to read the match reports, and Billy's posts to see he wasnt playing at an NRL level yet.
