I’d start Bentley over McD , but he needs to keep discipline in check , particularly with Sims on the wind up.

Bentley’s best chance is to wind up Sims and get him sent off!

Bentley was one of our best players against HKR. I would start him as I think his energy and agression if its controlled will be important. The balance and use of subs is also really important and needs to be better. O Connor and Bentley on the bench makes it too small. Ackers can play big minutes and I would spell Bentley and O Connor who both provide high workrate and big tackle numbers.
The props can then be rotated and Mcdonell can also provide size and energy giving us more flexibility.
We tend to leave players on too long and tired players contribute to a negative penalty count when their energy levels drop.

Forecast for Sat worsened a bit, could rain and going to be very cool again.

I feel like Mom or Miller is due a good game. We will need our back line firing and not making too many errors, to take pressure off the middle. I do think we need to compete with them though and reckon our pack will be up for it. Still expect Sims to wipe some of our lads out though.

Thanks for the subtle nod on your podcast Chris still think the written word has my point lost in translation. Good listen again though, you guys do a great job.

They are really good and worth a watch.

Sorry Chris you've been rumbled. Honestly though I normally don't like fan content, but it's brilliant.

Hey I’m not grumpy, far from it! Im the reasonable one
