What do we need to advertise for? Add anything more…. * Ability not to pick Robbie Farah at halfback. * Knowledge of how to use an interchange bench. * Identification of players who are consistently out of form, and not pick them in the following match. * Understanding of how many wingers (2)...

If you wanted any justification to whether getting rid of Ryan was the correct decision, then watch the u20 games from today. Nofolomu and Koroibete are the future. Re-signing any winger for 3 years would be stupid. Hence why Ryan said "I couldn't be sure at the end of next season that they...

Watching the highlights of the weekend games makes evident to me something I already knew, and what most people know. Your back row needs to be lethal runners of the ball. Have a look at every game and some big back rower is charging onto the ball close to the line and barging over...

Think about it in history. He always has the tactics to beat us. Parra beat us every time for 5 years under him. In 2010, they beat us 4 times. Smith doesn't rate us and knows our weaknesses. At LO this year he just ran his big forwards to us close to the ruck and it was too easy, he did a...

Really need him. Ryan at centre really isn't working. Its not his fault as he's a winger, but he's consistently coming up with some real bad reads, week after week. Surely with Lawrence back he can go to the centre and not to 6, and Sheens can make the tough call to drop/bench one of the...

Who would you pick? Options are Utai, Tuquiri, Ryan and Koroibete. Tough call and controversial, but I stick with Utai and Koroibete.

He does some good things, he does some bad. While I think Sheens is an absolute idiot for not at least giving him a go when we had no recognised fullback for two years, I don't think this one we will overly regret in the long. He's a great support player, and reads the game well, but when he's...

I expect Sheens to name close to the same team, but id make a few changes. 1\. Ryan 2\. Koroibete 3\. Ayshford 4\. Simona 5\. Utai 6\. Marshall 7\. Moltzen 8\. Galloway 9\. Farah 10.Woods 11.Blair 12.Fulton 13.Ellis 14.Heighno 15.BMM 16.Bell 17.Moors Notes: * I don't think Ryan at centre...

For years you have picked slow (but hard working) wingers who have NO impact, like Reddy, Brown, Ryan, Tuquiri. Tonight you picked a winger with some pace, and he did what wingers were supposed to do, and take your half chances. I say with confidence I don't think any of our wingers I listed...

hello does anyone know can you buy balmain ride eastwood supporter gear (etc - polos, hoodies?) if so where???? can you online?

A breathe of fresh air. Looked good running the ball and a few good touches. Think he lost a bit of confidence after the drop ball at the 33rd minute but he will grow from this. Long term he is priority winger number 1 for this club (Above tuquiri, ryan, utai and reddy). He has a lot of...

First try they run through Ayshford and Farah, the next two I think both Blair and Iosefa twice. These are guys who are pretty much there every week. They had two of their chief playmakers and they looked unrattled. Our starting forward pack was pretty much full strength accept for Galloway and...

I can't help but feel we desperately need to sign a centre. Im over Ayshford. He is second most unthreatening centre in the game, behind Joel Reddy. South Sydneys forward pack was more athletic than our back line.

Yes we have players out but we still have an okay team. Its not like we are running out a bunch of reserve graders who aren't up to it. We still have our two chief playmakers as well as the likes of Ellis, Blair, Woods etc. We are going to field a team which has 17 players who have player first...

Are we finally a chance of seeing some new come into the 17 next week? All year we haven't brought any new players through (Other than the already 1st grade signings like Humble, Reddy). The only 20s players or Balmain Players we've brought through are Politini (for six minutes) and Sironen...

To add to Lawrence, Moltzen, Sironen and BMM… Matt Groat has broken his Thumb in under 20s.

I really hope Sheens leaves Farah at 9 next week. While Iosefa brings a lot of things and id find a spot for him, Farah just knows how to hit our players and just controls our go forward so much better. I know there were a lot of injuries tonight but we look so much more controlled with Robbie...

Ive given it to this guy over the last ten weeks but one of the better games I've seen him play. The best this year for sure. His defence (like usual) was good but he really ran the ball with some venom and didn't just run back into the ruck or handbrake at all. Play like that and he's in my...

At 22-16 , we get a penalty 10 metres out. First tackle we go wide and Benji has it and a HUGE gap opened up. But as Benji is so focused on passing the ball he doesnt even look up and then proceeds to throw the ball to the ground. Seriously if anyone wants to bag Parra for what there paying...

While I would of loved him. Luke Lewis might be worth 500k for 1-2 years, but he won't be worth anything near that in four years. Look at Civoniceva or Hindmarsh even, Parra are playing him dollars other clubs are playing for the likes of Lyon, Bird, etc but he is nowhere near worth that as he...
