I think he’s been struggling for form and Tupou and Skelton did enough to hold their spots.

@joel I agree he's been struggling for form. I was asking did he play last week. And, if not, why not?

He didn’t play against the Roosters. I don’t know the reason why.

He’s been struggling for a while now… but I’ve pointed that out weeks ago. I’m hoping Marshall is reading our pages here. As I also wanted May back to the bench too. I might have to apply for the defensive coach job vacancy 😎🤷‍♂️

We have a defensive coach? Good luck to that guy getting another job if he's been sacked.

Turuva didn't play due to injury.

He did seem to have an injury in the game against the Dragons.

He’s picked at #18 this week.

He was very obviously injured towards the end of the Dragons game, and then they named him to give him a chance to recover in time. He didn't. They've done the same thing this week. 

Benji mentioned in his mid week media last week, and it's mentioned here:

Squad Update: NRL Round 25 v Roosters | Wests Tigers https://share.google/qCJ0X4eyOR4RVNOH5

It's also referenced in this week's team announcement:

Team List: NRL Round 26 v Cowboys | Wests Tigers https://share.google/vfNwVJQjagk24iXe5

Just watched the Panthers take care of a very strong Bulldogs side. I think if we want another win this season it has to be in Townsville. That Penrith side will annihilate us next week.
