like to see Staines replace Nofo on the wing but won't happen.
We need a centre I would go with Naden and AD and play Laurie at 6 and Staines at fb

If its the Daine Laurie vs Parra when we had our first win in 2022 where he ran 40m off a bomb to smash gutho! He deserves first shot but needs to play like that week in week out

To be fair, many of the ones that played on the weekend aren't professionals.

Agree with you mate. Of the guys that you would expect to feature regularly in our top 17, I think there were very good signs from Stefano and Pole in particular.

I'll save my rage for how the team performs in the next trial against Canberra and the first few rounds of the season proper when we can expect something closer to an actual NRL side taking the field.

I just think our centres are so poor we need AD at centre but I get we also don't have a 6 which only leaves Laurie
Hoping after round 10 Feledy can play centre and AD goes to 6.

Having watched must of the games this weekend, I have changed my original thought that we could get into the 8 this year or even next year . Having watched our young exciting talent ( tongue in check ) and then watching the young talent that the sharks and the dogs and a few others , OURS fall well short of the mark , not to say we don’t have a couple of really good kids but must of there’s are ready for 1st grade . I hope I am wrong but seeing is believing they say

Where do you see Staines?

Usually down the front of my shirt after eating spaghetti.

 

[hank37w]

Do you want me to stop this bus and turn it around ???

I've been waiting for over 10 years for the turn around.

Wests Tigers are more like the Queen Mary than any kind of bus that I know of because it has been taking an excruciatingly long time to turn around.

Hopefully with the new crew on board things might start to take a turn for the better.

Didn't know where to put this but has Bateman got into a bit of trouble in England & that's what's taking so long to get his Visa?.

Nah... He's obtained a visa once before. Only way is if he had done so since he's been back. If it's criminal, usually public knowledge.

Sounds made up to me.

It’s why I always said 23 will be tough, 24 will be solid and everything is triggering for a 25 onwards based off the direction forming.

If we have an injury free year we might get some surprising results but geez our depth if terrible atm. When Sheens talks about the kids they are at best 2-3yrs off.

Sharks were good, Graham was all over the park leading the way (attack/defensive). Bulldogs I thought were ordinary, very one out stuff from them against a terrible Raiders side most of the game. Mahoney was a step above his reserve grade opponents & Pele did a good step / offload but then fizzed out.

I'm glad you didn't mention the stains after a curry.

U should go out to dinner with my wife she can’t go out without getting food down her front 🙄🤔🥴

Where do you see Staines?

Fullback or reggies

 

[hank37w]

You can get a season ending injury in the shower. This is starting to sound like a VB ad. Matter of fact I've got it now.

Or on the Corso, even more so.

after yesterdays game i’d have Naden at right centre it’s where he played his best football for Penrith & he looked good there yesterday

That flick pass was pretty classy

to'a to full back laurie to 6. douhie and naden center

‘I’ve learnt more in 12 weeks than the last five years’: Reynolds hails Ciraldo effect

Josh Reynolds will wear Bulldogs colours for the first time in 1988 days when he starts at five-eighth against Canberra on Sunday.

www.smh.com.au

Grub said he learned more in the last 12 weeks with Ciraldo than he has learnt in the last 5 years, no surprise he learnt nothing off Madge

 

[wet tiger coloured bird]

Probably in a battle with Nofa for a wing spot assuming all other spots go as planned

I was really excited in what I saw with AJ before he got injured and Benji is a Talau fan

The centres are the biggest question mark imo ...and seeing defensively centre is so important a position and their isn't a great deal between the 5 real candidates lets pick the best defensive centres and tell them to hit the holes hard in attack

= ken

 

[tony soprano]

Do you try him at centre? Looks like Laurie has fullback, Ken and noff wings.

Yeh could be an option. Part of me feels like he should be in the 17.

 

[earl]

I think you will be pleasantly surprised by what AJ will do this year.

I think To'a has been better in first grade so far. Everyone is sleeping on him but he might come good as well.

The steering and the brakes are gone ...we just plough on regardless
