    I suspect Everitt. I'd prefer Armstrong. I actually think we are a little light on in defensive depth. I'd give Armstrong the run. He's the one we want in the 22 moving forward. I didn't see the ressies match. Is he ready to run a full game out?

      It was the clappers wot done it!

      Not funny, and no way could he fly, let alone play! OK, now who have we got who is a great tag. Relegate Kizz to tag mode, and bring up meredith?

          With LRT out it does create a bit of a dilemma, Horse wants to give Armstrong another week in the ressies, but it would appear he's the best option to replace Smith, who will be sorely missed. Buggered if i know, HAnners comes into the starting side, Armstrong as the sub? Then the question is which midfielder do we move into the backline?

            I think that could work well and then if Jack was a defensive tagger perhaps. I really hope armstrong gets a chance; he looks promising.

              Shaw will be the defensive tagger. You cant waist Jacks attacking ability on a tagging role.

              My guess is : Smith / LRT out : Mummy / Armstrong (in as sub). If Mummy still out then White in. Either of Gordon or Moore in if Armstrong not considered ready yet.

                My prediction is that teddy will be out aswell this week because his nose is still hurting from that falcon.

                    Mario Fenech aka the "maltese falcon" was a rugby league player who was embarrassingly hit on the head in a league match in the early 90's. The term took off from there.

                      everitt, white and mummy to return. If everett doesn't play well this weekend it surely has to be his last chance.

                          I'm getting nervous already! Though we should still be able to account for Port, you never know with the Swans...

                            On the bright side, I think Port are as good as any a side to play without Smooch. They don't really have that elusive small forward ala Milne, Betts or Balantyne and hopefully the Robbie Grays of the world can be handled by whats left...
