If Agar picks Sharp then he needs to give his head a bang....Horne at 1..whiting wing with Obst and long at half-back...i know its juggling the team but its worth it just so that Sharp doesnt play and i wouldnt be upset if he never played again for us.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!! No, No!



Horne at 6 and Long at 7. If anyone needs to be at 1 it's Whiting.

Whiting dealt with the Highball great last time we played them also longy kicked to whiting with ease on the wing same again I hope

Whiting

Turner

Gleeson

Yeaman

Briscoe

Horne

Long

O'Meley

Houghton

Moa

Westerman

Tickle

Fitzgibbon



Obst

Radford

Dowes

Manu

TBH, Sharp dropped less than Briscoe last week. We need to keep rovers penned back like the last derby

Horne Playing At FB. Whiting on Wing. Long and Obst half backs. Late fitness test for Manu!. Oh and Green out for them Hamstring.

Bit harsh on Sharp who has been mate a scape goat imo. Tbh whilst his positional play lets him down occasionally his ability to catch a high ball is much better than Briscoe and Whiting didnt cover himself in glory when we played saints either. That said Agar should maybe take him out of the firing line because he will get targetted.

I really hope that isn't true. Horne needs to be on the halves for me, he's in some good form this year and we'd benefit far more having Obst rotating with Houghton imo.

It's happening

Well I hope he's got a back on the bench so at some stage in the game he can move Whiting to fullback, Horne to the halves and Obst to Hooker if needed.

I think that is a good line up. Horne, Turner and Long give us plenty of ball movement and run threat in our pivots. Would maybe have Radders on the bench instead of Dowes/Westerman. But cannot complain if that's the team.

Manu touch and go for today. Late fitness test. More likely to be out than in tho.
