The problem is that it is rarely a 1 on 1 competition when its comes to winger v winger. Its your inside men that dictate the position your winger ends up receiving the pill. If those players don't do their jobs that's when a winger has to make decisions. Penrith are very good at isolating players in the opposition backlineJenkins is not to be given any space either...he must be shut down as soon as he gets the ball.

Well Couchman appears better suited in the middle of the parkThe conversations are going to be around
Halangahu/Sele vs bench spots 15/16/17
I dont begrudge the starting 8/10/11/12/13 ... just the curiousity on Stewart to the edge ...
Stewart played right edge last week. The numbers don't necessarily mean anything yet. All we know is that the starting 13 and the 6 man bench will come from these 22 players.The conversations are going to be around

Leilua is back from suspension and has taken his place.So no Halangahu might be a telling sign
Buckle up. Could get nasty on social media. Wait and see ifSo no Halangahu might be a telling sign
I would have him there instead of Lawrie or Kerr or Guler, but anyway the coach knows best.Leilua is back from suspension and has taken his place.
The 3 stooges. How the fark are these 3 in front of Sele??I would have him there instead of Lawrie or Kerr or Guler, but anyway the coach knows best.
Still not going to go down well mate. Here comes the thunder bolts and lightning.he is playing lock in cup and is captain ... It may be just about getting minutes into his legs
You know and its just my view. I can't find another team who have dropped their 2025 top try scorer. I know Sloan is poor defensively but he scored 17 tries last season which placed him 6th. We need speed and points because we are certainly not good enough to defend ourselves to a win. He is not a fb, he is not a centre hes a winger at best yet he is now not considered in the top 2 wingers we currently have. Doesn’t quite sit right with me.The conversations are going to be around

Does he? ReallyI would have him there instead of Lawrie or Kerr or Guler, but anyway the coach knows best.
Yes, he played 17 mins, Bye, 14 mins in the last 3 weeks.he is playing lock in cup and is captain ... It may be just about getting minutes into his legs
