Injury Report: http://melbournerebels.com.au/news/article/club-warehouse-injury-report-round-7-2015
Debreczeni available, Shipperley has a broken hand, will be out till at least Round 11, no word on the early pulling of Timani.
Think that would mean a reprieve for Engo, probably giving Sefa a start, and Telusa off the bench, but Crawf or Kingston could come in as well.

I really like Ardie, although he's not entirely dissimilar to McMahon insomuch as he's a bit of a notta. Mega, mega, talent, but he doesn't have a natural position in the game. Good news he's out for us, but not exactly devastating.
Annoying Shipperly is out. He's been building into the season nicely. Another reprieve for English then you'd have to think.

Kingston is not ready yet, could only manage 40 minutes of club rugby so no way TT could be considering him.
But than again it is TT

Flakey? I think you might be thinking of the Rebels halfback and standoff pairing...

He did say recent years, which is about as flakey as the half backs.
I think the Hurricanes are a real contender this year and will wipe the floor with the Rebelslike 2012. But praying for something more like 2011

I'm just going to pretend that this weekend is a bye for the Rebels.

interesting article in the sun this morning. TT bemoaning bad choices and lack of sticking to game plan at the end of last week and foreshadowing changes, Samo, Neville, Meehan ?
presumably Meehan for Burgess, Neville for Cummins, Samo for ? Faiinga.
Radeke could be answer to the line bending problem when Timani exits the game.

Matt Proctor is no scrub, he's on the fringe of AB selection and is from the same same club and went to the same school as Jules, Ardie, Motu and Ma'a, not a bad backline with 4 ABs and and 3 AB starters...

Canes are due for a loss. I would consider this a banana skin game for them. Will take a solid Rebels performance to pull it off though.
On an individual note, this is a change for Inman to send a message to Wallaby selectors if he can shut Nonu down. He is the benchmark 12.

I'm always expecting banana skin games, as a Canes fan you need to cause of all the years of over promising and under delivering.
Good luck trying to shut Rock down, all Aussie mid fields have tried and failed. This week won't be any different, but then again there is always hope for Inman before the game as there is in our banana skin games and the Wallabies winning the Bledisloe back in the near future...lol
Aussie mid fielders are generally pretty soft and need to harden up more, I'm sure Tams will make up for the softness...
