Brent Naden available immediately. Takes the 30th spot. 

Takes pressure off getting Adam back too early

Few big calls this week

Junior keeps his spot on the wing (good call, looking forward to seeing more)

Kelma to bench (good call  only made 3 runs last week)

Garner to 2nd row (not my preferred starting 2nd row but deserves a crack after really putting in at the centres)

Nu Brown on the bench (really keen to see what he brings)

 

And the big one - Brent Naden on the extended reserves - who saw that one coming???

Expect changes. 

Agree, we have no one on the bench to cover backs or give Liddle a rest. Yes, Garner can go from back row to centre which allows Peachey to hooker from centre, but it would be a lot less disruptive to start Naden, Peachey to bench and Brown drops off.

 

If Naden is ever going to run hard it would be this game but still a massive call to play him IMHO. 

 

Edit: Had my benchies mixed up, thought Brown was a forward for some reason...

Telegraph reporting that Naden will definitely play, only reason he wasn't named in 17 was his contract was lodged at 3.55pm, 5 mins before the deadline.

I'm keen to see Nu Brown off the bench

I would guess Peachey with the peach going back to the bench and into the hooker rotation.

Watching the player interviews sounds like Naden and Brown are both playing.

So I imagine either AJ or Peachy drop out to make way for Naden

I’m leaning towards AJ as I think he needs a stint in reserves to get some fitness up. Peachey has looked good in the centres.

Luke Garner has been a rock,hope that the shuffle won’t affect the defensive patterns.

Wow very interesting 

I wasn't impressed with Kelma last few weeks

Good to see accountability being made (once we have depth to make it)

Agree. He started the year well but looks completely disinterested.

First time we have started favourites now this year. Pretty firm as well at $1.50.

 

Makes me more worried about this game to be honest. Bit of pressure on us for probably the first time 6 weeks or so.

 

Don't want to lose to the crises club even though we have heaps of injuries ourselves.
