Your team vs Sharks

I'm with a few of you guys. Croker and Thompson have dine great so they get to stay over Sue. Sue has been very decent for us but I want to keep these boys rolling

They have been great I agree but I feel with Klemmer, Fitzgibbon and now Barnett out we need to have some more experience in our pack. I think we need one Saf on the bench because I think we drop off a bit (intensity-wise) when both are off with young props on. Maybe could move Croker to run on with D Saf? Leo and J Saf off the bench possibly.
 
I thought Croker and Thompson kept up the intensity against the Tigers. This weekend was abit of a write off being down to 12 men. They deserve to keep their spots IMO.

Watched Sue in NSW Cup yesterday and he didn’t look too good. I’d give him another couple of weeks in Cup before considering him for FG.

They did have their work cut out for them but still think the Safs play better split up then when together. Croker to run on and J Saf to bench imo.

I thought Sue was impressive after a long stint on the sidelines. Crossed the line which was disallowed but his attack was solid. Best forward for us yesty I thought. But only my opinion, won't complain if Sue isn't picked.
 
Thought JSaf was underwhelming last week. Disappointing considering Klemmers absence.

DSaf in his first game back doubled his brothers yardage. Seems Jsaf is best suited to the bench for shorter minutes higher impact.

When is Klemmer back?
 
Too early to be talking about him, but Brock Gardner should be being fast tracked for a second row position.
He was named as one of the Raiders 5 rookies to watch in the Tele a few weeks ago and apparently Souths were very unhappy to lose him to the raiders, but for some reason he didn't get a trial game for the Raiders and played a trial for Lakes 2 weeks ago and went very well.
Yesterday he was dropped into our reserve grade side and has had his profile added to our reserve grade list in the middle of last week.
He has had a growth spurt since he played for NSW in 16s and 18s and captained our Mathews and Ball sides. He's now about Fitz sized and a very mobile and high energy second rower with a high workrate. He was often compared to a young Boyd Cordner as a junior.

He was his usual self in reserves yesterday, but only played for about 20 minutes. He put his hand up for plenty of strong carries in that 20 minutes. At his best he does that for full minutes every game.

He's had about 3 pre seasons with Souths and 1 with the Raiders since he was 18 or so, and as far as I know he is rated highly by just about everyone, so I don't know what is going on with him, but I think that second row vacancy we have has his name all over it.
 
Reserve grade stats are in. Saulo got 68 fantasy points compared to his reserve grade average of 25.
Momoisea did 80 minutes at right second row - 62 fantasy points, scored a good try and made 33 tackles.
Sue 42 fantasy points - 68 metres run and 31 tackles

People need to give it up with Lee. He will break a rib from sneezing these days.

Agreed. Tuala is also a good winger who is far more durable. If Lee can string together some good performances in Cup then he could push for a spot. But there’s no way I’d be swapping Tuala out for someone who hasn’t played in, what, 12-18 months, and has ongoing durability issues.
 
2-5 have all been playing well. No need to make changes unless the guy in Cup is absolutely banging down the door.
