Another proving my point, another who's attack focused, he did make more metres than Newman against Leigh off less carries, and got a try assist, do we need to see more from Newman too?

The team announcement just said 'minor injury' and there wasn't any mention of it in Rohan's press conference

He was reasonably poor first half against Leigh is it possible he's been dropped?

The only problem with playing Goudemand and Bentley together in the starting 13 is mass; we can't afford to lose the early collisions. I think Goudemand is a better bench middle or starting second row personally. I'd go:

Miller
Roberts, Newman, Martin, Handley
Croft, Frawley
Mik, Ackers, Holroyd
Bentley, McDonnell
Smith

Goudemand, Sangare, Ruan, O'Connor.

Mom hasn't been bad by any stretch, missed alot of pre season and one of many new players.
Will take time to settle like most do that come over from aus

Don't think they can bring in McCormack against Saints, so has to be Martin in the centre with Bentley taking the available 2nd row spot. Ruan should keep Donaldson out.

Just hopeful of an 80 minute performance and no sin bins.

Off the top of my head his only assist for any of Ash's tries was once in the game against Leigh

Mom hasn't been that bad at all. He is a quality player he just needs time to bed in and find a groove, maybe when not playing in near freezing temperatures. We haven't seen him get into space yet but he should have some toe too.

Mom still finding his way in a new team and I'm sure we'll see what he can doin attack soon.Some players take longer to settle than others I remember when Senior signed for Leeds in his first few outings he was awful.I would definitely keep Ruan in over Donno.If Donno plays he will be holding back a future player and that for mine doesn't make sense.

Think you’re underestimating the other work he does, it’s not just about assists. Him and ash seem to have a great working relationship, especially in defence.

Not sure i can remember a try scored against our left hand side?

They also switch positions a lot depending on the flow of the game. He’s not been flashy but not nearly as bad as some are saying.

I too am a Mom fan Chris but he was pretty poor first half against Leigh I thought; couple of errors.

I'm not worried about him though, you don't play NRL first grade for the sides he has and for that long without being decent.

He wasn’t alone in being rubbish in that first half

So I’m not actually too confident about Friday… think we’ll miss Fus and Lisone in this one.

Having Sam back for the Cup game the week after will be good. Looking forward to seeing Bentley and McDonnell team up if RS goes that way.
