Your Team vs Sharks

[Billy]

I'd probably rest Gagai again if he has a serious strain. No point turning it into a tear on our best player.
He kept playing through SOO - but no reason to play him now.

Rochow might be injured again. Knights twitter said he had a pec injury during the game.

Ross might have picked up an injury.

Chanel might be back.

I thought Pauli Pauli was outstanding in the half a game of reserve grade I watched - but if Rochow is out we need a prop, and Pauli needs to keep playing 80 minutes in the second row.

Jake Saifiti and Micky Paea played starting props in reserve grade. They looked about equal to me.

Bhana had a long spell at dummy half in reserve grade and didn't look too bad.

Assuming Rochow is out

 

[slotmachine]

No Elliott or Adams.

 

[Billy]

No Elliott or Adams.

Bloody hard to not use Adams.
The starting hooker in reserve grade was Ben Stone, who is a second rower and 20 years old. Bhana had a long spell at hooker too, and went a lot better than I thought he would, but just shovelled the ball out time after time - not a single step from dummy half, and that won't cut it in firstgrade.

[Joshhh]

No Adams.

And who then? He'll be better next week. Certainly better than throwing Bhana or a forward in there.

 

[slotmachine]

Sign bedsy to one of those $1 contracts. He could still do 15 minutes better than most.

If Randell recovers quick from his rib injury

Lot's of guys come back early from intercostal injuries. It hurts like hell, but no real risk of permanent damage, and Randell is as hard as nails.

 

[josh2010]

If Randell recovers quick from his rib injury

once Randell is back Levi will be out due to his Surgery!

 

[ForeverKnights]

Bring back Uate the Thriller.

 

[Theknightsrule7]

Bring back Uate the Thriller.

I hope your not serious

Honestly keep the team as similar as possible for next week as today.

I'm a Uate critic but he's a far better option than Elliot, to be fair.

Elliot sucks, but the brothers defended very strong in the centres today. Leave them there I say. Why can't gagai play wing?
