It's an odd one, because you'd think Stuart wouldn't want to give it away on Tuesday. I think we'll see: Five-eighth: Austin Halfback: Hodgson Hooker: Baptiste Bench hooker: Buttriss/McCrone with Kennedy dropping off the bench
Couple of people on gh reckon: Wighton -> left half Waqa -> fullback Leilua -> centre Baptiste -> bench That would put so, so much pressure on Blake Austin. It doesn't say much for Mitch Cornish does it. Even I'd rather this re-shuffle than playing Cornish.
I would prefer that final adjustment because it would balance our squad better. I don't like the fact that Leilua will be on the bench and gives an opportunity to slot every one in the back line for a few games. I think Wighton will do well in the halves if needed.
Ennis is such a liability. Going down the short side on second tackle 30m out with nothing on and kicks straight into the fullback arms. 3 coach killers in one play.
Twice now Austin has been tackled on 5th tackle and twice Wighton has put in two stinkers of a kick. Absolute momentum killer.
Both sides making yards with ease, just struggling with execution and decision making at the back ends of their sets.
Cronulla pack has been better thus far. Those lapses in defence so frustrating. Especially the first try. Nothing was on and Edrivk wandered on in field for no reason to
