Hi. Which Forward should I bench?

Roo under a bit of an injury cloud, Stokes in poor form or Buddy being Buddy this year?

Thanks for your help.

I'd bench Stokes based on recent form. You surely couldn't bench Buddy coming off a 122... and NRoo hasn't gone below 80 all season prior to his injury affected game last week.

Those are my thoughts and I've got Stokes benched at the moment. I'm concerned about Roo's injury.

Stokes' could be carrying a groin injury himself though. NRoo could very well be a late out anyway, but I just think you need to back him in tbh.

Looking at the saints emergencies, they have Dennis Lane and Hickey who could replace NROO if he pulls up sore.
My guess is NROO is about 75-80% chance of playing. I hope he plays though.

Bench Stokes based on form.

If you're benching NRoo when he's named you should trade him, I'd back him in, at least you have stokes as cover which is better than most

Thanks for all your help. Ill bench Stokes and see if we hear anything about Roo before lockout.
