Round 16: Newcastle Knights vs Gold Coast Titans

[Toads]

Geez.. considering it's not the first time Meady has busted his jaw, I hope they're not rushing him back too soon.. Personally, I wouldn't mind him being out for another week or two. Mainly because we've had a bit of a habit of returning injured Players a little too soon at time this year already..

No doubt, we all want him back on the paddock. Just don't rush his return for possible short term gain.

I think he was always on track to return this week. The medical dude on Titans TV has been saying Knights game for a few weeks now.

I just worry if he's up to it mentally. Broken jaw twice in one season has to play on your mind.

[TITAN PETE]

yeah only a thrashing and a few other results could knock us out of top 8 if we lose. But i think we need to win this, then beat penrith at home, and then get 2 from the bye.

Darwin isn't really home for us

[DavidBouveng]

haha true. was looking at a generic draw with just home team named first.

Good to see mead back in for this

[Titanic]

Am I wrong in thinking that Mead may play 1 and Zillman 3, irrespective of the numbers on their backs?

[teke]

Yep u are wrong, he is playing left centre, demanding the ball and praying Uate runs at him on the kick returns

[Geeman]

I would be o.k with that...

[Mr Stupid]

Eliminate the errors and we win.

[titanfan1980]

Meads back!! Very exciting! Can't wait!

[titanfan1980]

So who will make way for Myles and birdy?

[Julius Sezer]

Our defence will be very weak on the left side.

[Julius Sezer]

Also i really think Carty should insist on Srama to use his kicking game. He is a much capable kicker of the footy but Carty doesn't utilise it. It would be very good as Mead and Flash will use their speed to get to the footy. It will lead to many tries and teams won't expect our hooker to kick from dummy half.

Agree 100%

He doesn't even have to kick well. But he would stop defenses rushing our halves.

Btw I think he is a very good kicker
