Nice to get the bye but not a good time to play Cronulla who have no one bothering the Origin teams and will be fired up after copping plenty of criticism.
Now we have to replace Kodi as well. I think Donoghue will play 5/8 but then who is going to play lock? Or will Woolf go with SOS at 5/8? I hope he doesn't.

I suspect SOS will get the gig. He's a specialist half and the next man up for the position. It's probably the safer (and least disruptive) option as well. Kodi's injury will have huge ramifications as it will severely affect their potency. I suspect this ever expanding injury toll is about to bite hard. It has to.

Fuller on the wing is an interesting idea. Why not?
Melbourne done it with Faalogo and defensively Fuller is much tougher & safer than Faalogo. Fuller will kick return with energy as well.

Averillo for me is classy not a true winger.

Coach has done really well in that it hasn't bitten is hard already but I feel at the business end of the season, it might prove to be a bit too much. Just hope we can finish ahead of the Broncos.

Canberra as far as I know only have one long-term injury and that is for a winger.

And Matty Nicholson the backrower from Warrington that's all for them.

Bulldogs same as Canberra no long-term injuries just those 2-3 week ones.

I do probably think now is a good chance to bring Fuller, Naufahu or Nonu into the side as the backline is humming, Katoa is humming and need some blood some fresh legs.

Everything Blockade Blockade says is so accurate.

Tamale.

They also have an easy run home.

They will finish top, unless something strange happens
