If CHN starts next week I'll be tempted to buy him at 601k. He'll be in a good team who will set him up & I remember his scores when he played for the Panthers which from memory were pretty good. Also he's the nephew of a mate of mine.

When RCG went off last night they were saying he was limping with what looked like some sort of hip injury. Obviously it was nothing as there's nothing in nrl physio about him. Anyway I forgot who purchased him this week but kudos to you my friend.

If I hadn't just had a couple of pints I doubt I'd have put the C on Cleary.
Wouldn't say I was chasing last weeks score, it was more of a feeling that the Storm will contain Haas and he'll score in the 50's. I guess Cleary is a match up selection, when I don't usually play match ups. Not concerned about Koro not being there, Kenny will just give the ball to Cleary like a good little deputy does, and Cleary has Ash Taylor and Hipgrave to run at (maybe.. Hipgrave had been playing right, but in the training video the titans posted, Proctor was running on the right edge next to Fog)
Cleary is great to watch at the moment. I used to think he was overrated, but he's changed my opinion. Gun footballer.
I went with Cleary for similar reasons.... I can see the Storm spread it out wide a lot with Haas not getting a high work rate plus spending a bit of time under the posts.
I didn't want to risk Teddy in the wet weather. Cleary will take the lead especially with Koro and Edwards not there, I expect him to pick up quite a few attacking points + goal kicks. Seems like a safe bet this round...aside from the fact that he's the man of the moment.

I know Raiders said they only named Bateman because they don't have 21 fit players, but they could have named absolutely anyone in that slot, including the same 21 as last week.
I think Bateman must be close and we will see some combination of Bateman edge CHN middle or Bateman middle CHN edge
Doesn't Bateman being named in 21 because not enough fit players point to Bateman not playing this season still? Surely CHN arrival makes him not playing more likely

My rationale for Cleary as captain was similar. Edwards had been stealing a few TAs off Cleary in recent weeks (4 TAs in 5 games this season). Aekins is a runner, not a distributor (1 TA in 10 games at fullback).Chewie wrote:

He'll play next week imo.
Or maybe he'll return this weekend, at centre

I think if Bateman was still a while off they could have named any not fit player in 21. To me that means Bateman is closer than the others to returning

Not that there is any real uncertainty, but Trent Robinson has confirmed SBW deal is going ahead.
Says the expectation is that he'll be ready to play with around 4 or 5 games to go. Would put that at round 16 or 17.

If the SBW move happens I can't wait for him to get smashed. Remember when Surgess came back & he struggled & he was only playing rugby for 1 year so what is SBW's going to be like missing multiple years of not playing league.

Roosters will handle it much better than the Rabbitohs, he will be given a role he can handle... I trust in Robbo.

I want to see SBW's walk down the main street in Bankstown. If he survives that then he's gtg.

Tbh I'm not a fan of the signing
He won't be a better second rower than Cordner/Crichton, won't be better in the middle than JWH, Tauk, Liu, Collins, Butcher. Aubbo is a much better utility. Will probably end up taking the spot of Tupouniua/Faamausili, which I'm not sure is an upgrade for a 35 year old SBW.
Having him around the squad at training will definitely up the professionalism and help the youngsters, but not sure he helps on the field

Great opinion from the chookpen forum:
Lock. Can run like a front rower, can tackle, can pass like a half. Finally we have a genuine replacement for Rads. A real link man.
Start with Isaac or Butcher and bring Sonny on after 25 minutes. Let him play the first 15 of the second half and depending on how the game is going bring him on for the final 10 minutes if needed...
