Also, with Broady in, Lynch may ruck more and Astbury in forward, Broady spend time in the back. We have options which is good. if we win, we need the options in the following weeks.Could be Broady, Balta (if king goes into the ruck)
Channel 7 just announced:
In: Lynch Broad
Out: Aarts Chol
But nor have we been planning all year on the current absence of both Soldo and CCJ, and the total demise of Chol either. Balta and Broad are both talented, versatile big bodies, providing us with options.Balta pinch hitting in the ruck is odd too. Hasn't done it all year
heading over a cliff like the Hawks?

Oldest Tiger team since R6 1935. Another 3 days and it'd be the oldest since 1924.
Second most-experienced Tiger team ever, behind the 2001 SF team (132.5 games).
I think broad will play in defence and Balta will be pinch hitting ruck and resting fwd
And if memory is correct played in their win against us earlier this year and acquitted himself well? Or have I got it wrong. (Marsh )Saints INs: Battle - has a dodgy foot injury that he has struggled to overcome; Savage - only 1 game in '20 (but is a pretty good user). And Marsh - who they pinched from us. He might be 3rd tall back and relief ruck too?
Should allow Baker, Balta and Short to attack out of the back halfMaybe. We have eight specialist defenders.
Astbury/Grimes/Balta/Broad
Houli/Baker/Vlastuin/Short
possibly when Nank needs a rest after a goal is kicked... Broad comes on and goes to Baltas man in the backline for the centre bounce... then Balta takes the centre bounce and then rolls back to his backline role as soon as possible... Broad only rucks around the ground; without centre bounce duties....Also could be Balta with Broad going back
