I'll be at the Titanium Bar watching if any other Titans fans wanna join us.
i would hope carty is giving good consideration to using a lot of seagulls players and some ipswich players this week, i think bodene in the pack and kingi akauola in the centre is nice, davis and capwell halves, walker is unfortunately injured, tomane on michaels wing would be nice, mead at fullback and pereyoux other wing.
I don't quite understand this logic. Throwing a player in there whose already proven this year that he is a liability in defense, for someone who proved last week that he has what it takes to be there. Did you not see how well Mead had Jennings covered last week (until Jennings went off injured)?Quote:

I totally agree that Mini & Henderson need a wake up call though.
ill start james for sure, and move thompson back to the backrow. mead hasnt done anything really in my eyes to get dropped.
sooooo excited for this game. BRING ON THE HILL
I know there needs to be changed to the team but a poor time to change IMO. This game is a great chance for the boys to build some confidence against a weekened opponent. If the boys can hold onto the ball this will be a chance for our attack to attempt some much needed variation.
I feel that Mead has not provided even a 40 minute game this year - sure, in flashes he's great but he is nowhere near being a strike weapon. His highlights clip of this year includes; how many missed tackles, not attempted tackles, dropped kicks, dropped passes and going missing? I would like to give Peyroux a shot.Quote:

I realise that may not be a popular choice but it's mine :)
I recon the team this weekend will be:
1. Zillman
2. Michaels
3. Toopi
4. Tomane
5. Mead
6. Capewell
7. Prince
8. Bailey
9. Srama
10. James
11. Laffranchi
12. Minichello
13. Thompson
14. Campbell
15. Taga
16. White
17. Ridge
The one change that really worked for us was preston coming off the bench. I hope carty doesn't change something that works because let's be honest there isn't alot working for us.
The was we are currently playing we will be lucky to even get the points when we play the bye
Gonna be interesting to see if there really is a major player shakeup and who's gonna cop the blame for the recent losses
you cant really single out individuals in titans games they all have played as bad as each other, they just need to play for each other and get the basics right. Major lineup changes will not help if anything make it worse, you cannot put new guys in that have not played with the team all year or even trained with them, it takes a good couple of weeks to learn set plays and the like. I am not expecting a win this weekend but i would like to see them hold the ball and just put in a good effort.
You arent serious with that lineup are you?Quote:

It is quite terrible
Have you ever stopped to think why Mead and Michaels havnt provided a 40min game this year? It's plain obvious, which part of he never gets the ball dont you understand?Quote:

This would be my team this week
1. Zillman
2. Micheals
3. Tonga
4. Mead
5. Tomane
6. Capewell
7. Prince
8. Bull
9. Srama
10. James
11. Bodene
12. Laffranchi
13. O'dwyer
14. White
15. Page
16. Mini
17. Preston
Ok here's why:
It seems like ereryone thinks mead isn't getting enough ball so move him into center and tomane to wing to ease defensive pressure. capewell to six as we dont have many other options. Bodene to 11 as I believe he has been wasted in center. O'dwyer to Lock as he has been in good form and harro and bird are out. Page given a go on the bench, see how he goes. Then presto can play either hooker or 6 depending on how srama and capewell are playing.

TITAN PETE, I expect better from you. With the boys returning to basics and having a good look at themselves we will do allright this week. We as SUPPORTERS should never shy away from the fact that we support the Gold Coast Titans through and through, thick and thin. I for one are in this for the long haul, no matter how we are travelling.:salute:Quote:
