Walker named in Titans squad

Wednesday, February 28, 2007 - 1:18 PM

Gold Coast coach John Cartwright has named former NRL bad boy Chris Walker at fullback for the club's trial against Penrith at Carrara on Friday night.

Former Queensland Origin centre Walker, 27, is virtually assured of landing a one-year incentive-based contract with the Titans following his impressive pre-season form but he won't be signing the deal until next week.

Cartwright used Preston Campbell at the back in last weekend's 22-10 win over Parramatta in Lismore but he has named the former Penrith five-eighth on an eight-man bench in the trial against Campbell's old club.

Dual international Mat Rogers has been given another chance to shake off the cobwebs following a quiet 40 minutes against the Eels - his first NRL match since 2001.

Gold Coast forwards Brad Meyers (ankle) and Mark Minichiello (thumb) have been ruled out while prop Michael Henderson returns from a hamstring strain.

The trial will be the Titans' final hit-out before they face St George Illawarra in their premiership-opener at Suncorp Stadium on March 18.

Titans squad: Chris Walker, Matthew Petersen, Mat Rogers, Jake Webster, Lelea Paea, Matt Hilder, Scott Prince, Luke Bailey, Clint Amos, Michael Henderson, Anthony Laffranchi, Gavin Cooper, Luke Swain. Interchange: James Stosic, Kris Kahler, Luke O'Dwyer, Preston Campbell, Richie Mathers, Brett Delaney, Josh Graham, Smith Samau.

i think there might be more than 2 or 3 Panthers fans there on friday night. just wait and see, we may even have suprise or 2 ??????????? :noidea: :noidea: :noidea: :noidea: :noidea: :noidea: :noidea: :noidea:

god knows y u wouldnt leave walker on the wing n put mathers at fullback
peterson is horrid :O
mathers was one of the best english fullbacks, give him a chance to settle in
i dont turst walker defence at fullback, he dont make try saving tackles tbh
peterson isnt the best, he goes the job, but does nothing speical bar run from dummy half across feild making a loss of 1m
bench him
mathers at number 1
n walker at number 2
thats would be myselction

[PROMETHEUS]

Go titans,lick those pussies!

I think it's great you'll be there and you'll already be dressed in black... just like you're going to a funeral.

thats true i'll be in a Penrith Panthers jumper, so what will you be wearing ? perhaps a Giants Jumper or a Seagulls jumper or a Chargers Jumper or a Titans jumper ? you guys have had a few go's at this....... 40 years and still going strong !

Its surprising how often he done that at Parra, 9/10 he would run sideways. He is a legend though.

Been to penrith leagues and seen how many jersey changes penrith have had? :sick:
And that alternate jersey of yours...

[jake86]

Surely that cant be our strongest side(1-5 at least)

Mathers
Webster
Rogers
ODwyer
Walker

That looks much better...Never rated Peterson or Paea

Wow, 40 years of history, that is impressive. How bad would it look for you guys, with your 40 years of history and all, to go down to team that has only played twice?

I almost hope you win just so you can be spared all that unnecessary embarrassment and humiliation.

Almost.

I was on my way home from work this afternoon and realised, I live across the road from the hotel that the Penrith Panthers are staying at. :!:

If any of the boys get sick in the next 24 hours... It wasn't me

[Steve]

I'm a bit curious, are our tickets valid for travel on the train down the coast for the trial? (and will they be for the season games?)
