Ok last throw at the dice , honestly we should get up for this we have more to play for and who thinks we got this , not me ...... I can't see us winning this , or maybe should be saying gut feeling we get done ........ Seen it so many times before ........ Hope I'm wrong then the trend will be broken LWW to end the season or the trend goes the other way LL? .........

Tough call on Max being dropped (assume it was him not his brother), I do wonder if he has signed a contract elsewhere perhaps thats why.... I know both guys had a bad missed tackle last week against very good opposition.. but who hasnt..

An injured Suli is a risk in defence also ofcourse.. but hopefully they make the right call on that one.

Well I believe CT is now also injured. These last minute changes are unsettling

This is true but don't forget about last year and the yer before. I don't know what is wrong with them. Sloan and Kyle Flanno just aren't really built for good defence. Rava is too slow for a winger. The ease in which players get around him forces him to charge in and try and cut the play off. He'd probably be better defending in the centres. But by the look of the Feagai's, they should be gun defenders. Like Matt Cooper 2.0 x 2. But the opposite is true. Even if they are in position to make tackles, they barely throw an arm out. It happened again and again last year and the year before and again last week just when it seemed that was a thing of the past.

Suli not named

Suli is named on the extended bench but at this stage, still not confirmed if he is going to be a late inclusion or not.
Moses Suli is aiming to return early from a knee injury after being named on the extended bench. Max Feagai would make way if Suli is cleared.

Lyhkan King-Togia came onto the bench for Raymond Faitala-Mariner last week so don’t be surprised if the Dragons make the same game day switch.

It all gets culled with 24rs to go (i.e. 19 men left in the squad with the final 17 announced 1hour before game time), so I'd say Lawrie remains 18th man, Connor back to NSW Cup... and its just a question of whether Mathew Feagai plays.. if he doesnt.. its what justa is saying.. bird to ctr, lkt to starting 6..

I was feeling so good this arvo, now im gutted.. this is the last ditch backline we could roll with.. we are going to have to roll right over them for 80mins.. nothing elegant.. I just hope we can defend their width in attack.. if Ravalawa is on Sivo.. thats a better matchup, its the fast guys that give him trouble.

So Suli is definitely out?
