love to see Douhie play 6
lets move tommy into centre
mmbye fullback

I just get the feeling watching AD he has got some footy smarts ... playing 6 could be a master stroke nothing ventured as they say.

Did you see the pass just before halftime?

I look a bit more in depth than a brain explosion, worth a look at 6 before season out .

So do I mate, but there is just something about how he engages the defensive line that makes him difficult to run off in my eyes.

He’s unco
Like watching a new born giraffe finding its feet

It is a very awkward running style but its that awkwardness that makes him difficult to tackle as well.

Play him at 6
Can pass
Can kick

That’s 2 up on Brooks

Off topic slightly...when Doohey and Nadin had that niggle exchange...
Doohey was playing the ball and that wanker Nadin came in from behind to have another go at Doohey but no penalty...
Friggin lived tonight with the refs !

Except at least a baby giraffe wouldn’t get picked up and carried back 10 metres almost every run.

You dont really expect Cummings to referee teams equally do you?He manages a game for the winning team (in his mind)

Probably makes him difficult to defend as well. Training should fix the attack.

Only reason we are still chasing fullbacks is that Madge has other plans for AD.

Play for next year.

Talau centre
Mbye bench (If BJ isn’t suspended). Fullback to see the other options
AJ wing
AD 5/8
Benji/brooks half (madden anyone? Possibly too soon)
Blore in garner out

Still ok fullback but whatever at this point of the year

Yes it does make him difficult to defend, Ive said that many times, doesn't make him a 5/8th though

Madge confirms next few weeks team selections will be looking to the future.

Of course he will still giving Benji an 80 minute selection. Seriously we need to sharpen our halves. My selection would be to play Liddle at half and Brooks at five eight, Grant and Simpkins hooker.

Why Brooks? Brooks has never played finals and probably never will. Brooks cannot be part of the team if we are to progress.

He did kick last week and it was a shocker but it was only 1 kick lol

Well we have heard it prior from Madge.
Yes time to change it up lets see what happens.
Playing for our season tonight thought that comment was not correct, we all knew with our draw and depth we needed to win the Games against the warriors/rabbits.
If the half combination does not change would be surprised.
TT should also be dropped on that performance.

His not a winger they have to stop picking out of position

Well who is then????
We keep giving Mybe a gig at centre no matter how bad he plays, although will admit played better tonight was involved.
Some fairly basic mistakes coming out of our 20 made by hiom and ad tonight. Think he will be hooked for next week by Madge and give someone else a run.

That would be a big plus. I have been hoping he will look to the future for a while now. Season was gone when the Knights beat us by 40. They were poor before us and terrible after...they beat us by 40. Season ended that day.

Season ended for me when we were in front of the wArriors and they were pressing our line to get the lead and of course they scored. And to rub salt in they converted. I said to the guy that was watching this trash ‘ that’s the season’

I get a club the caliber as us if you get a Val homes or fox youd play them at full back.


But talau douei mbye just don’t cut it playing out of position if their not good enough for their natural position don’t play them.

Talau - second row
Douei- half or second row
Mbye fullback or half


It’s not rocket science I don’t know how these guys keep screwing up.

Talau doesn't have the grunt to play second row.

That is just a no
 
I'll believe the changes when I see them I guess

Just disappointing with the recent form given how well the team was playing for a little while there, but we seem to do this every year despite who the coach is.
