After yesterday’s effort the care factor would be pretty low … I do not think the embarrassment of supporting this club is over for 2026.

Good game to give a debutant or two a go.

Andrews, Saukuru?

I don't know how many noticed it but Sukkar went off on Sunday clutching at his ribs. Assuming Twal is back we can expect to see Seyfarth on an edge come 4pm.

It would be good to see Taateo get some game time at NRL level.

I think our fortunes this week rest on Luai. If calls the ball and runs it then good things happen. If he repeats last week's effort then I expect the Dragons to win.

Let me guess Jerome has a shoulder issue? Just remember watching Sunday he was favouring it at a time. Would like Javon to get on the bench instead of Latu who o don’t trust at the minute. It would mean Jock going to dummy half for a time though.

@joel You have to start blooding sometimes but Marshall will play this to the death … he would play API and May for 120min if he could he is becoming desperate dan !I see Andrew’s as the player that is needed desperately he has a footy brain he owns the red zone   . Understand bringing him on easy but a full off season in the gym should set him up for a start in 27.

Okay I think we should have a market for our next injury during the dragons game. 2-1 A Doueihi 3-1 J Bula 7-2 S To’a 10-1 T May 15-1 A Koroisau 33-1 The rest

Great to see Twal is back. No Samuella, so thatcwas just a tease. I think wecarecstill a big guy short on the bench/even extended bench but then again we are probably short on big guys to play.

@tgrzmn This team is short of an enforcer there needs to be more attention around signing a dominate prop !

Agree totally regarding the bench. There is space for another middle in my opinion who is not Murray or Geyer.

We have competed best this year when Pole and Sione are our bench middles and Latu has covered lock for a shorter period off the bench.

If we know Geyer and Murray are not in our future plans then blood a Taateo or Aho to see what they have got. Although maybe there is a cap reason why we cannot play Cup guys?

just when we thought we’d conquered the physicality aspect.
