Nicoll-Klokstad
Tuivasa-scheck
Berry
Pompey
Watene-zelezniak
Harris-Tavita
Metcalf
Fisher-Harris
Egan
Niukore
Capewell
Laban
Clark

Healey/TMM
Ford
Leka
Vaimauga
18. TT/TSS

With Barney out that's the 17 and setul I like also. Laban to front load and go after everything early, Leka to come on fresh against a tiring pack.

Dont think capes backs up purely logistically, travel from Perth etc and he’s an older fella.. so assuming he’s out and Berry/Egan are fit I’d go

1. CNK
2. DWZ
3. Berry
4. Pompey
5. RTS
6. CHT
7. Metcalf
8. JFH
9. Egan
10. Niukore
11. Leka
12. Laban
13. Clarke

14. TMM
15. Ford
16. Vaimauga
17. TSS

Full strength Panthers beat Tigers by 4, probably not the scary side from the past especially without 5 key players

not to mention their origin depleted side in rd 12, which is probably a closer reflection of who we will face, got lapped by Newcastle.

Give Capes a break.Would be devastated for Healey if he drops off the bench based on what he did last week. I choose him over TMM:

1. CNK
2. DWZ
3. Pomps
4. Berry
5. DWZ
6. CHT
7. Mets
8. Fish
9. Egan
10. Marata
11. Leka
12. Laban
13. Erin
14. Ford
15. Demi
16. TSS
17. Healey

long gone are the days that playing for the wahs would be the end of your rep career as an Aussie. Now it can be the making of it (exhibit A and B: Barney and Capes)

Hopefully DWZ makes some right decisions about jamming in from both wings

I am probably going to get blasted but is anyone else starting to think that Berry is a waste of time?
Too many injuries and has moved our most dangerous attacking threat to a side where he is only a shadow of himself attacking wise (Ali L). Berry is starting to remind me of Ethan Blackadder, I would be tempted to cut my losses and invest into others.

In the presser yesterday, Ivan pretty much confirmed that Penrith SOO stars won't back up for this game. Given that in mind, I'd be tempted to give not only capes the week off but also Egan if he's still nursing that complaint. He's too important for us to be sitting on the sideline for an extended period if he aggravates an injury from coming back too early.
