I'm an atheist and I have less faith in that bench than I do in the Gospel of the flying spaghetti monster.

If thats the team/bench that rolls out an hour before kick off I wont even bother to watch.
In contrast to our bench the Eels are running with 2 props, 1 lock and 1 second rower on the bench.
Jimmy is just Holbrook 2.0 with these team lists.
Man our forward depth is dire
Wish we could have gotten palasia early from the broncos we need all the big bodies we can get
Why in the world would you run fifita on the bench again? I don't think he even got on the field last week.
That would have to be one of the most cooked benches I've seen, what in the world is going on at this club
Makes me wonder how many of these decisions are made behind closed doors without input from the coach. I know Clarkes mum is heading up the netball team but surely we don’t expect to ever win a NRL comp by playing him for that reason.
I’m rapidly losing faith in this club. The season looked so bright at the start.
Mikaele has played one game and he wasn’t even that bad. We only need 20min from him with Tino and Mo in the middle. Give him a chance to earn a contract, the season is over.
I hope and expect changes to the bench and starting side.
I dont see how Jojo doesn't get Schoupp spot. im dumbfounded
If we keep picking teams to lose then we may as well pack up and sell the franchise … very depressing.
Four reasons to escape to Queensland: Sun, Surf, Sand & the Titans.
Mikaele dealing with an injury, Vuna unavailable, Stimson out, Iszac nursing a shoulder issue most the season and shouldn’t really be playing, Joliffe injured, Pahulu injured.
I know it’s frustrating but I think the criticism is lacking a bit of understanding on availability. Our roster is absolutely shot.
Id say Jojo doesn’t get Schoupps spot because Schoupp is a better defender and we don’t lose too much with yardage carries. Huge fan of Jojo but at this stage he’s got some work to do on D as a centre. Des will get him right.

Tbh I think Jojo should be on Lofi’s left wing. If the stories are to be believed he’s just about as fast as Lofi, way stronger and better at hitups out of yardage, and he won’t make stupid plays like those kicks.
I think Jojo should have BK’s spot in future, on the left, feeding Lofi.
And as far as depth is concerned is Alick injured? Surely he did enough to fill a spot.

Yep I agree and he might still come in. I hope he does.
But he's a one-game edge forward that hasn't shown he's anymore capable in the middle than public enemy no.1 Erin Clark. I'm just not sure the needle moves that much by including him, no matter how you reshuffle it.

Finally saw Jojo wind up for Tweed a few weeks back when he got in the clear about 70m out and holy heck he's an athlete. He's fast but takes a bit to get going, whereas Lofi hits his top speed in a few steps.
For the reasons you've stated I'd play him over Lofi on the left wing right now as well.
Needs a specialist D coach to help him with his reads and movements as a centre and I genuinely think he'll play rep footy.
