Is this really how we lined up?

I have to agree with everything that has been said.I can't believe the drastic positional changes that we have taken all because Moltzen has been injured. :brick:
Its obvious Sheens does'nt have confidence in Lazarus.If this is the case why the hell has he named him??
I feel for the kid because im afraid the Panthers game might be the last time you will see him in 1st grade :frowning:

The only plus is it is only early in the season & surely Sheens isn't that brain dead to realize what he is doing wrong
Hopefully he rectifies things this week & not in round 18 when it will be all too late once again

I heard Sheens say Folkes knows his place and only speaks when asked too.

Arrogant, useless ego driven coach whos selections will once again see us struggle.

Agree and he has been resigned for another season. His selections should be investigated by the Wests Tigers Board. They are nothing short of disgraceful.

At the start of the season we had a half playing fullback (and not very well). Then we had a winger (Brown) selected at fullback number 1 on his back, who then played on the wing (sometimes) and another winger (Ryan) with number 2 on his back playing fullback (not too badly) sometimes. Then we had said fullback/winger Ryan selected at fullback and a half back selected at half back (Lazarus). He, Lazarus then played on the wing and at fullback. Said selected fullback, Ryan, played fullback and sometime wing. Confused? so am I.

But wait there's more. Last night, last weeks number 7 who played wing, fullback and fed one scrum, was again selected at half back. Then low and behold, he plays fullback again, the selected fullback (Ryan) plays on the wing. Another winger (Fitzhenry) who was selected on the wing plays everywhere but. He feeds the scrum, plays 5/8 and everywhere elsed but the wing. Then we have the best hooker forward in the world, (Farrah) playing half back as well!!!

Is it any wonder that so much ball was dropped? It would have been impossible for anyone on that field to know where anyone else was playing.

It seems to me that Sheens has lost the plot. I think it may be time for the CEO to tap him on the shoulder and move him on. Folkes can take over without much disruption. If there is a clique who will not play unless Sheen's is coach, then move them on as well. Enough is enough.

The way Sheens is selecting his team at the moment, if by some miracle we purchased Thurston he would play him at fullback!!!
 
If your referring to the "Sheens said" comment then its in a recent WTV video when asked about the influence Folkes has had. Thought his everall reply was very disrespectful to Folkes.

Nice observation Smeghead. I Noticed a couple of times against the dogs where Marshal pushed Lazo out of the way to feed scrums and I thought at the time how hard it would be to perform when your own team(mates) showed this level of distrust in you.
