Team vs. Melbourne

If Munster is still out and Hughes doesn't get his grade 2 dangerous contact charge downgraded then we may be in with a shot. But if Munster is back and Hughes gets let off (which is very possible as Storm seem to do well at the judiciary for some reason) then the footy gods really don't like us.
 
Twal is value because of his high tackle count but please stop him getting ball on 5th or 6th tackle 10m out in the hot zone
Kenny is a almost always hobbling if not at beginning but after 30 mins
Main essential is Wskeham to 7 Brooks to 6 imo Douehi to 3 or 4

Its very clear Wakeham needs to start from this week and moving forward.

Sheens needs to stop this 200 passes a day bs and start training them to run the ball and RUN STRAIGHT. Those 3 consecutive tries came from good strong runs, not 20+ passes sideways.

Wakeham needs to start. We’ve looked dangerous twice this year
1. Trials with raiders
2. Second half against the dogs
Both off the back of Wakeham generating plays.

Both games at Belmore. Maybe we should lobby to add Belmore as another home ground. Play better there than Leichhardt.
 
Hello crew,

I am tired of us shuffling he deck chairs around Luke Brooks.
Look at Sunday.
Nofa off.
Staines to wing.
Doueihi to fullback.
Brooks to 6.
Wakeham to 7.

Why not just bite the bullet, take Brooks off and replace him with Wakeham.

The team went Zing once Wakeham came on and Api and the rest of the players looked happy and confident again.

Happy that the ball wouldn't passed 1 metre behind them or burst their eardrum with a bullet pass to the head.

When you look at our team, it's the two long termers that need a "rest". Brooks and Nofa.

We just need it to happen.

Because he is outplaying Doueihi in every facet of the game at the moment.

Adam's form is abhorrent.

Theyre both terrible decision makers. Brooks can't outplay any half in every facet of the game cause he is one of the worst halves in the game

Hughes will get off but he shouldn't IMO. Our players get suspended for looking at a player let along making dangerous contact. My bet both Munster and Hughes are playing unfortunately

It’s a regular bug bear by most.
But I will say, he is getting the ball there because he is putting himself in the position if only some more of our forwards had that foresight and could provide and extra option flat off the ruck Twal might actually have a gap to go into.
For context look at Horebourghs try vs the Sharks.

Too many running halves and doesn't matter which combination you put together

Douehi @14 maybe ...Brooks and Wakeham 6/7 ...but then who kicks ??

Anyone but Doueihi should be kicking anyway. Can Wakeham not kick a ball? I don't get it? Are we losing because of our kicks?? What's the issue here?

Did you notice the bit where Doueihi was shit and then we got close and Doueihi was shit again and killed all the momentum? It was more shuffling chairs to accommodate AD being shit, did I mention AD was shit?

Brooks definitely not our half but definitely would be at 6 ahead of Adam for me. One of few that has that electric pace that can bust the game open and go fulll length of the field & defends better than Adam.
Dane is another I wouldn't mind seeing at 6.
