Horse and Mooney should be in the team (bench).
Whitehead should be dropped...i don't understand how he is ahead of Hosking or anyone else in that forward pack to be honest...
But yeah, our coach will never.

Gee this place is ridiculous. Why are we going so well to start the season? Because the club, and it's staff, knows what it's doing. People crying over a team list named on a Tuesday.

Penrith have won 3 premierships in a row and whilst they’re a very good defensive unit, they’re also a team capable of putting on 3 tries in 17 minutes on 2nd best defensive unit in the league You have to have more tools in the toolbox to win than just grind.

Everyone is an expert with hindsight. Coaches don't have that luxury. The team as a whole will be better for last season imo.

obviously he’s a talented player so that’s good But I can’t pretend it’s not a little disappointing we’ve added yet another body, even if it’s a pretty high quality one, into a middle forward rotation that is already so log jammed that we can’t reliably get Trey Mooney NRL opportunities.
