    He says "it will be interesting to see how Tre...Reid, Parker, Jetta, Hannebery will respond to the loss" referring to how the young players will respond to such a devastating loss last week. Was about to say Trent Dennis-Lane but then stopped, I'm sure of it. Suggests that he is out this week? I reckon TDL will be out so I wouldn't be surprised.

    Pure speculation, but I thought it was interesting.
    Yep, noticed that. TDL also named for the reserves. Suggests to me that if McVeigh plays, TDL won't be.
    Officially on the Reid and Sumner bandwagon!

        Confirmed from where? Not that I'd be at all surprised.

          Could it be part of a package deal with Seaby? They are after a ruckman, after all, and Seaby is too good for Canberra, but not flexible enough to be a second ruckman with the sub rule.

            Just a figure of speech. I wouldn't be surprised either though.

              I dunno, i think Tiges have enough Meredith types in their side. Their Ruck and Defensive stocks are the areas they need to bolster.

                I'm on the 'give Meredith a full game' bandwagon. I like what he does, he just has to do more of it.

                Parker or Kennelly as sub I s'pose (unenthusiastic about both of those for different reasons).

                Still not certain if McVeigh is playing. If he's not I guess it's Bevo in. Can't imagine they'd go with TDL.

                  I noticed D. Kowalski is running the boundary on Sunday. He's a killer umpire that bloke.

                  For those that don't know : Emergencies for Sunday are Bevan, Seaby and TDL.

                  Meredith is getting a run as interchange and McVeigh listed to play but as you all know may still be late withdrawal.

                    Getting 3 quarters, in a high intensity game, after a lengthy layoff preceded by reserves footy......very tough.
                    IMO should be given at least one more game.
                    Meanwhile Kennelly gets another game, after many weeks of crap footy.

                      Well what do you know, I agree with Bas! I think even with the poor chase he will only improve with game time. He has a very awkward running style that seems to rely on balance and co-ordination and not rhythm and that may affect his tackling. He needs some expert tackling tuition.

                        Have to be Tadhg after him being replaced on the HB line. I hope it's not Lukie as I like the kid & think he has the goods.

                          Tadhg has been every opportunity..........we need to move forward now

                            No. As he is playing in the Rugby League state of NSW, surrounded by Jack, LRT, McVeigh and Bevan , excellent tackling techniques are imbued through breathing the air and sharing water. You know it's true. Just ask the commentators.
                            I don't know what to think about dropping him this week. It's a long season that's for sure.

                              He could certainly do with tackling tuition from a Jack, Gary that is!
