Rd 10 - WestsTigers v Knights

[Demps]

At least the beast is named as 18th man.

Do or die for Brooks with Madden named at 14
“Hook Brooks”

Nah.
Looks like Jock will start with Mbye on the bench to give Liddle a spell during the game.
I think Madge just didn't want Jock to deal with the build up.

 

[Sabre]

How does Stefano get dropped?
He's been one of our best...

 

[jrtiger]

somebody please say expect changes

 

[WT2K]

Stefano dropped too lol and captain plod still there.

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

If we weren't paying Mbye so much and wanted him off the books next year he would be playing State Cup. Such a waste of a spot.

 

[TigerVinnie]

Have always backed the coach but it's getting increasingly difficult to defend Madge with braindead decisions like these....

- Possibly one of the worst benches we have named in a long time
- Madden is NOT an impact player, so Mybe moves to hooker when Liddle tires and Madden in the halves. So a brand new halves combination needs to be disrupted mid game? Madden is expected to provide an impact from 5/8 in a small burst?
- AD has been our go to and provided us with the most attacking threat all year, now we are moving him away from there?


I know us fans don't see what happens at training and we are just armchair coaches but the how is it we can see what changes need to be made and who should play where so clearly and our head coach cant???

 

[Speed2burn]

May as well mix it up... Insanity is the doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Agree, but moving our best player from last week to another position and replacing him with one of our worst players last week is non sensical and ridiculous.

I’m guessing Madden will replace Mbye at some point when Liddle gets a spell

Would u say

Mikaele = prop
Blore = 2RF
Seyfarth = utility forward
Mbye = utility

Pretty balanced bench if Madden is to start.
Prefer it be more like;

14 Simpkin
15 Utoikamanu
16 Mikaele
17 Musgrove

Impact.

Expect changes.

Do you realise that Madge has played his named team 1-17 every week unless injury has forced him to do otherwise?

 

[Pbulk]

I reckon we will see;

6. Brooks
7. Madden

Then 14. Mbye

 

[Newtown]

The selections are not as crazy as they look. I particularly like the selection of Madden in the reserves. If either Brooks or MBye begin to slip in their game during t his match then Madden is ready to replace either one and could very well surprise many people with his steadiness and abilty yp get the backline moving.

[TillLindemann]

Madden comes on and replaces Brooks, Brooks shifts to hooker for a bit? Maaaybe???

 

[PabloX]

Did he pick the team based on their salaries?
