Team List Tuesday - Analysis

Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks v Newcastle Knights
Remondis Stadium - Friday 7:35pm

1. Valentine Holmes 2. Sosaia Feki 3. Gerard Beale 4. Ricky Leutele 5. Michael Gordon 6. Jack Bird 7. Jeff Robson 8. Andrew Fifita 9. Michael Ennis 10. Chris Heighington 11. Luke Lewis 12. Wade Graham 13. Paul Gallen
Interchange: 14. Ben Barba 15. Anthony Tupou 16. Matt Prior 17. David Fifita 18. Tinirau Arona 19. Jayson Bukuya

Changes from Last Round
In - Barba, Bukuya (extended bench) Out - Nil

Analysis - Cronulla finally got off the mark and what a performance! Jack Bird was simply outstanding and it will be interesting to see how he handles the hype leading into this match. Ben Barba returns from suspension and will start from the bench.

Supercoach Studs - Jack Bird (115) was dominant and is now the buy of the week after a sizzling performance. Valentine Holmes (71) is quickly cementing his position and looms as a point of difference should he secure his spot with another big game against the Knights.

Supercoach Duds - Andrew Fifita (52) has slipped as a must have but is still a hold now for those who bought in. With Origin around the corner surely he will put his hand up sooner or later?

1. Kurt Gidley 2. James McManus 3. Dane Gagai 4. Joseph Leilua 5. Akuila Uate 6. Jarrod Mullen 7. Tyrone Roberts 8. Kade Snowden 9. Adam Clydsdale 10. Korbin Sims 11. Chris Houston 12. Tariq Sims 13. Jeremy Smith
Interchange: 14. Tyler Randell 15. David Fa'alogo 16. Joseph Tapine 17. Jack Stockwell 18. Sione Mata'utia

Changes from Last Round
In - K Sims, Fa'alongo Out - Scott

Analysis - Newcastle's bubble burst last week against the Dragons and they will be out to get their season back on track in this match. Beau Scott is a huge loss for the Knights, however the Sims brothers in Korbin and Tariq combine for the first time in the NRL.

Supercoach Studs - Chris Houston (54) has turned the clock back with some great performances of late. Kade Snowden (64) keeps plugging away with consistent scores in the 60's.

Supercoach Duds - Tyrone Roberts (2) now has a huge breakeven and Joey Leilua (29) also was quiet.

Brisbane Broncos v Sydney Roosters
Suncorp Stadium - Friday 7:35pm

1. Lachlan Maranta 2. Corey Oates 3. Jack Reed 4. Dale Copley 5. Daniel Vidot 6. Anthony Milford 7. Ben Hunt 8. Josh McGuire 9. Andrew McCullough 10. Sam Thaiday 11. Alex Glenn 12. Matt Gillett 13. Corey Parker
Interchange: 14. Jarrod Wallace 15. Mitch Garbutt 16. Mitchell Dodds 17. Kodi Nikorima 18. Francis Molo

Changes from Last Round
In - Nil Out - Nil

Analysis - The Broncos have been in good form but have they been tested yet by the top sides? Round 1 against Souths saw the Broncos thrashed and dreadfully outclassed. This will be the game where they can put their hands up as contenders in 2015.

Supercoach Studs - Anthony Milford (62) finally sprung to life last week against the Titans but would recommend he back that up here before buying in. Lachlan Maranta (49) has been a sneaky buy and continues to rise in price. Mitchell Dodds (76) is a cheapie option this week should he continue to get a consistent run off the bench.

Supercoach Duds - Dale Copley (20) had an ordinary score on the weekend and now has a huge break even, but in general the Broncos scored well.

1. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck 2. Daniel Tupou 3. Michael Jennings 4. Shaun Kenny-Dowall 5. Nene Macdonald 6. James Maloney 7. Mitchell Pearce 8. Jared Waerea-Hargreaves 9. Matt McIlwrick 10. Sam Moa 11. Boyd Cordner 12. Mitchell Aubusson 13. Isaac Liu
Interchange: 14. Willie Manu 15. Dylan Napa 16. Kane Evans 17. Siosiua Taukeiaho

Changes from Last Round
In - Waerea-Hargraves Out - Guerra

Analysis - The Roosters welcome back front row enforcer Jared Waerea-Hargraves but lose Aidan Guerra for 6 weeks with a broken jaw. This sees Napa start from the bench and Aubusson replacing Guerra in the starting side. The Roosters had their pants pulled down by the Sharks and will be keen to make amends against Brisbane.

Supercoach Studs - Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (101) put on a clinic with his kick returns on Sunday and looms as a logical trade choice for Brett Morris owners. Isaac Liu (66) has been a good cheapie and is due for some more rises. Mitch Aubusson (69) scored a try and will see a rise in minutes taking over from Guerra.

Parramatta Eels v Gold Coast Titans
Pirtek Stadium - Saturday 3:00pm

1. William Hopoate 2. Bureta Faraimo 3. Ryan Morgan 4. John Folau 5. Reece Robinson 6. Corey Norman 7. Chris Sandow 8. Darcy Lussick 9. Nathan Peats 10. Tim Mannah 11. Manu Ma'u 12. Tepai Moeroa 13. Anthony Watmough
Interchange: 14. Isaac De Gois 15. Joseph Paulo 16. David Gower 17. Danny Wicks 18. Peni Terepo

Changes from Last Round
In - Terepo (extended bench) Out - Nil

Analysis - Parramatta were very flat against the Tigers on Easter Monday and will be under pressure to put together a strong performance against the Titans at home. The Eels will need to turn Parramatta Stadium into a fortress this season if they are going to make the 8.

Supercoach Studs - John Folau (27) still looms as a good buy for those who missed him last round. Nathan Peats (84) was strong and has a low break even this week.

Supercoach Duds - Ryan Morgan (9) was concussed early and didn't make it back pushing Manu Mau (40) to the centres. Chris Sandow (22) continues on the roller coaster.

1. Josh Hoffman 2. Anthony Don 3. James Roberts 4. William Zillman 5. David Mead 6. Aidan Sezer 7. Kane Elgey 8. Luke Douglas 9. Kierran Moseley 10. Nate Myles 11. Ryan James 12. Dave Taylor 13. Greg Bird
Interchange: 14. Eddy Pettybourne 15. Agnatius Paasi 16. Lachlan Burr 17. Ryan Simpkins 18. Matt White

Changes from Last Round
In - Nil Out - Nil

Analysis - The Titans will fancy themselves against the Eels and have certainly looked a lot better with their senior players in Greg Bird and Nate Myles leading the younger players around the park in recent weeks.

Supercoach Studs - Ryan James (82) put in his best game of the season, rewarding those who stayed strong. Greg Bird (61) and James Roberts (57) also loom as solid buys with the amount of injuries this week.

Supercoach Duds - Kane Elgey (22) has yet to set the world on fire in First Grade and with Daniel Mortimer expected back next week may not have cemented his spot after being handed the #7.

Warriors v Wests Tigers
Mt Smart Stadium - Saturday 5:30pm

1. Tuimoala Lolohea 2. Jonathan Wright 3. Konrad Hurrell 4. Solomone Kata 5. Manu Vatuvei 6. Chad Townsend 7. Shaun Johnson 8. Jacob Lillyman 9. Thomas Leuluai 10. Ben Matulino 11. Bodene Thompson 12. Ryan Hoffman 13. Simon Mannering
Interchange: 14. Nathan Friend 15. Sebastine Ikahihifo 16. Sam Lisone 17. Albert Vete 18. Dominique Peyroux

Changes from Last Round
In - Nil Out - Nil

Analysis - The Warriors play host to the young Tigers and will be desperate to break their 2 match losing streak and will need a big performance to appease their fans.

Supercoach Studs - Simon Mannering (62) is firming as a keeper and has yet to score a try this season. Tui Lolohea (28) and Solomone Kata (32) have been great rookies and will look to keep rolling this week.

Supercoach Duds - Ryan Hoffman (31) couldn't convert for owners against his former club but can be forgiven. Konrad Hurrell (15) failed to live up to his high standards and now could drop in price. Worth keeping an eye on especially over the Origin period should his slow start continue.

1. James Tedesco 2. Kevin Naiqama 3. Tim Simona 4. Chris Lawrence 5. Pat Richards 6. Mitchell Moses 7. Luke Brooks 8. Aaron Woods 9. Robbie Farah 10. Keith Galloway 11. Curtis Sironen 12. Kyle Lovett 13. Martin Taupau
Interchange: 14. Dene Halatau 15. Ava Seumanufagai 16. Jack Buchanan 17. Sauaso Sue 18. Asipeli Fine

Changes from Last Round
In - Nil Out - Nil

Analysis - No changes for the Tigers who will be looking to continue their impressive form on Easter Monday. The Tigers feature 5 Kiwi players in their squad who will be looking to impress prior to the one off test coming up.

Supercoach Studs - Man of the Match, Pat Richards (91) was sublime against the Eels and is being touted as a possible Origin bolter. Luke Brooks (50) looms a fast upgrade for Mitch Cornish owners as he is currently at a bargain price.

Supercoach Duds - Sauaso Sue (32) continues to start from the bench for newcomer Kyle Lovett (26) who is still due for some price rises.

Penrith Panthers v Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles
Pepper Stadium - Saturday 7:30pm

1. Matt Moylan 2. Josh Mansour 3. Waqa Blake 4. Jamal Idris 5. Dallin Watene Zelezniak 6. Apisai Koroisau 7. Peter Wallace 8. Sam McKendry 9. James Segeyaro 10. Jeremy Latimore 11. Sika Manu 12. Isaah Yeo 13. Elijah Taylor
Interchange: 14. Tyrone Peachey 15. Nigel Plum 16. Regan Campbell-Gillard 17. Bryce Cartwright

Changes from Last Round
In - Manu Out - Whare

Analysis - The Panthers just didn't get going against the Cowboys and will not want to make a habit of losing at Pepper Stadium. Penrith have lost Kiwi Test centre Dean Whare but young gun Waqa Blake will look to grab his chance.

Supercoach Studs - James Segeyaro (84) continues to be a sound captain choice and is currently the pick of the #9s. Regan Campbell-Gillard (57) continues his great form and has been the best rookie prop this year.

Supercoach Duds - Josh Mansour (18) very much like Hurrell has slipped by his high standards and looks like dropping is price next week. Jamal Idris (21) spent some time in the back row and should bounce back.

1. Brett Stewart 2. Cheyse Blair 3. Brayden Wiliame 4. Peta Hiku 5. Tom Trbojevic 6. Kieran Foran 7. Daly Cherry-Evans 8. Luke Burgess 9. Matt Ballin 10. Willie Mason 11. Jamie Buhrer 12. Tom Symonds 13. Dunamis Lui
Interchange: 14. Jesse Sene-Lefao 15. Ligi Sao 16. Justin Horo 17. Jake Trbojevic

Changes from Last Round
In - Nil Out - Nil

Analysis - Despite their poor showing in Albury against Canberra, Manly remain unchanged. Steve Matai and Jamie Lyon again remain on the sidelines. A loss here would really pile the weight on coach Geoff Toovey.

Supercoach Studs - Tom Trbojevic (105) had a dream debut scoring 2 tries and looms as next week's must have. His big bro Jake Trbojevic (39) has been a great pick up and is making hay. Daly Cherry-Evans (66) offers a lot to Adam Reynolds owners.

Supercoach Duds - Brett Stewart (22) is nowhere near consistent enough this season in comparison with other gun fullbacks like Dugan, Tuivasa-Sheck or Tedesco.

Canberra Raiders v Melbourne Storm
GIO Stadium - Sunday 2:00pm

1. Jack Wighton 2. Edrick Lee 3. Jarrod Croker 4. Sisa Waqa 5. Jeremy Hawkins 6. Blake Austin 7. Sam Williams 8. Josh Papalii 9. Josh Hodgson 10. Dane Tilse 11. Jarrad Kennedy 12. Iosia Soliola 13. Shaun Fensom
Interchange: 14. Glen Buttriss 15. Frank Paul Nuuausala 16. Paul Vaughan 17. Mark Nicholls

Changes from Last Round
In - Hawkins Out - Rapana

Analysis - Canberra head to GIO Stadium after their best performance of the season against Manly. Sam Williams and Blake Austin looked to open the door with their attack and will need a repeat against the renowned defence of Melbourne.

Supercoach Studs - Shaun Fensom (78) is back to playing at his workhorse best and is a superb pick up this week as his price has bottomed out. Josh Hodgson (73) was again strong and worth putting on your radar despite having Glen Buttriss (9) on the pine.

Supercoach Duds - The Edrick Lee (23) experiment at centre has been shelved as he moves back to the wing to jump for those high balls.

1. Billy Slater 2. Mahe Fonua 3. Will Chambers 4. Kurt Mann 5. Marika Koroibete 6. Blake Green 7. Cooper Cronk 8. Jesse Bromwich 9. Cameron Smith 10. Jordan McLean 11. Kevin Proctor 12. Tohu Harris 13. Dale Finucane
Interchange: 14. Ryan Hinchcliffe 15. Tim Glasby 16. Dayne Weston 17. Felise Kaufusi

Changes from Last Round
In - Nil Out - Nil

Analysis - No changes after they dismantled the Warriors at home. The Storm will head to the ACT full of confidence, with the majority of the squad involved in the Raiders worst ever loss in their last visit to the Capital in 2013.

Supercoach Studs - Marika Koroibete (95) has been in white hot form and is certainly worth looking at this week if you fancy the Storm's chances. Cameron Smith (73) continues to be solid.

Supercoach Duds - Jesse Bromwich (39) had a hiccup but remains an excellent pick up should he drop in price, likewise Billy Slater (37).

St. George Illawarra Dragons v Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs
ANZ Stadium - Sunday 4:00pm

1. Josh Dugan 2. Eto Nabuli 3. Euan Aitken 4. Dylan Farrell 5. Jason Nightingale 6. Gareth Widdop 7. Benji Marshall 8. Leeson Ah Mau 9. Mitch Rein 10. Mike Cooper 11. Tyson Frizell 12. Joel Thompson 13. Trent Merrin
Interchange: 14. George Rose 15. Jack de Belin 16. Jake Marketo 17. Heath L'Estrange 20. Rory O'Brien

Changes from Last Round
In - Nil Out - Nil

Analysis - The Dragons defence has been their strength in the last few weeks and as such go into this match against the depleted Canterbury side as favourites. At home they will look to their big attacking weapons in Benji Marshall and Josh Dugan to get points on the board.

Supercoach Studs - Josh Dugan (86) is an excellent buy for Brett Morris owners this week. Trent Merrin's (77) minutes have gone back to normal now he is in the #13.

Supercoach Duds - Joel Thompson (29) is testing the patience of owners but is a hold for now due to the amount of injuries/suspensions for most teams this round.

1. Sam Perrett 2. Curtis Rona 3. Josh Morris 4. Moses Mbye 5. Corey Thompson 6. Josh Reynolds 7. Trent Hodkinson 8. Aiden Tolman 9. Michael Lichaa 10. Tim Browne 11. Josh Jackson 12. Tony Williams 13. Greg Eastwood
Interchange: 14. Lloyd Perrett 15. Antonio Kaufusi 16. Frank Pritchard 17. Chase Stanley 19. Danny Fualalo

Changes from Last Round
In - Thompson, Browne, Kaufusi, L Perrett, Stanley, Fualalo (extended bench) Out - B Morris, Lafai, Graham, Klemmer, Kasiano

Analysis - A whopping 5 out of 17 players are missing from the 17 that played in the Good Friday blockbuster, either through injury or suspension. The Bulldogs have had a tough week and will be expected to come out strong early against their bitter rivals.

Supercoach Studs - Josh Jackson (89) really came back to bite those that lost patience with him. Aiden Tolman (80) continues his high workrate and will surely feel more responsibility in the next few weeks.

Supercoach Duds - Brett Morris (52) has torn his hamstring and is looking at 8-12 weeks on the sidelines, which is terrible news for owners and also NSW supporters. Tim Lafai (13) is also out for at least a month and is also a sell.

South Sydney Rabbitohs v North Queensland Cowboys
ANZ Stadium - Monday 7:00pm

1. Greg Inglis 2. Alex Johnston 3. Daryl Millard 4. Bryson Goodwin 5. Joel Reddy 6. John Sutton 7. Luke Keary 8. George Burgess 9. Issac Luke 10. David Tyrrell 11. Glenn Stewart 12. Chris McQueen 13. Jason Clark
Interchange: 14. Ben Lowe 15. Chris Grevsmuhl 16. Tim Grant 17. Thomas Burgess 18. Cameron McInnes 19. Nathan Brown

Changes from Last Round
In - Sutton Out - Reynolds

Analysis - John Sutton returns to the side in place of key man Adam Reynolds which sees Luke Keary shift to halfback. Bryson Goodwin will take over the kicking duties. This will be a huge game for Souths and could mark out their form moving forward.

Supercoach Studs - George Burgess (64) continues to lead the way for the Bunnies pack and is a hold. Chris Grevsmuhl (39) continues to rise and looks more comfortable each week.

Supercoach Duds - Greg Inglis (37) had a quiet game by his standards but expect him to lift in the absence of Adam Reynolds.

1. Lachlan Coote 2. Matthew Wright 3. Tautau Moga 4. Kane Linnett 5. Antonio Winterstein 6. Michael Morgan 7. Johnathan Thurston 8. Matthew Scott 9. Jake Granville 10. James Tamou 11. Gavin Cooper 12. Ethan Lowe 13. Jason Taumalolo
Interchange: 14. Rory Kostjasyn 15. John Asiata 16. Scott Bolton 17. Ben Hannant 18. Glenn Hall

Changes from Last Round
In - Hall (extended bench) Out - Nil

Analysis - Jonathan Thurston has led the Cowboys from the cellar and they are climbing the ladder after back to back wins. This will again be a huge test for the Cowboys away record.

Supercoach Studs - Ethan Lowe (85) continues to fire and is now a genuine keeper option running strong lines outside of Thurston. Lachlan Coote (60) is a great buy this week, especially with dual status.

Supercoach Duds - Michael Morgan (27) has been in good form but sometimes has to take a back seat to Thurston. Ben Hannant (19) saw James Tamou (66) eat into his minutes on Monday night.
