TEAM LIST Vs Bulldogs [Round 20]

[Rock Hopper Steve]

Depressing isn’t it…

Man, surely there's some bigger bodies in reserve grade that can step up FFS, even if it's a small stint, like Roberts inclusion but what about someone like Taateo he looks a big body.

Dogs not naming a captain when critta’s not playing is annoying

 

[davey_farrell]

Just our luck Kikkao is back against us

God that bench is light

Only one frontrower , in seyfarth , this is not going to end good

 

[Halbrowne61]

You can forget AD playing anywhere but 7, don’t know what that means for Latu, maybe he gets the 7 next year and Douehi moves to 6.
Benji obviously rewarding non performers for the past several weeks. Don’t bother having a pick the team segment because it rarely changes and all the speculation is a waste of time.

 

[LARDS]

Bunty dropped, Which i agree with. He was playing for warriors last weekend

Suspended.

 

[LARDS]

Suspended.

Ahh OK makes sense. After that then he should be dropped

 

[GNR4LIFE]

As usual, the bench is dog piss.

 

[boonboon]

Id imagine our prop rotation includes Sione who will move into the middle with Roberts coming on.

 

[mtd#2]

If we need to change momentum we are need to be thinking outside of the box. As much as I hate changing halves mid game it may be what is required if we can't generate points.

Can you actually see benji doing that though? In his presser today he came out and backed luai as 6 for the rest of the season

maybe I havent been paying close enough attention but in the games i saw him hes been pretty average

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

How good did Haywood look last week in a badly beaten side he was the only shining light imo, but man we have to be careful with him. Id rather him not start at this stage even though he's shown in a small sample size he can handle it. Traditionally we don't do enough to protect our rookies, please don't burn the kid.

No, I can't - but he has been talking a big standards game all year. If it isn't working are we supposed to throw the season away or use it to our advantage?

If we need to score points I don't think it is Luai that needs to move in order to get some creativity happening.

Since AD has been back on deck the scoring opportunities have dried up for us and a feeway has opened up around him in defence. He really needs to pull something out of the bag in the first twenty or he should be hooked.

Listening to his presser as I type, and I agree with him. Doueihi is the one that needs to be shifted and whilst I just heard Benji say that the season isn't over and we want to win games, surely he knows that change in the halves is needed to have a any chance of accomplishing that goal.

I think he will start play the first 30 minutes and then API will finish the game just 1 interchange for the game at hooker

 

[Lestronge]

Sione will swap with Roberts I reckon . Then there’s some real punch . I can see Seyfarth and Pole swapping as well .

 

[user118245]

Surely Api is back and the bench is

Api/Haywood (Hooker)
Latu (who knows where Benji plays him)
Roberts (prop/2rf)
Seyfarth (prop/lock/2rf)
Lanyon (lock/hooker)
Tino (wing/centres)

And kit dropped. He’s named on cup bench after all 🤦‍♂️

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Liaulli ??) WTF ?? WTF he was terrible in cup in the weekend ,,atrocious .. Starford is busted and so is douhei FFS we cannot make a gotdam break to safe ourselves .. Jesus Christ give Solo and Faingaa a run and taateo has been great soce he came back .. why’s is Benji so stubborn .. douhei cannot tackle ,, get his shoulder done ✔️ we cannot win with a team of players that cannot break a tackle

Laulilli call up is insane .. he has been terrible rusty in 1 game back from concussion all year and he is also out the door .. we have no strike players and he continues to pick out of form and invjured players /. I cannot wrap my head around it .. we cannot score points in backs and nobody ever gets dropped ..
