Tim Sheens masterstroke

[AmericanHistoryX]

can he kick goals, can he put up bombs and grubbers, can he get his fingers out of the pie? If he looked so good then lets see if he gets picked there next match. now i wont even talk about who will play hooker if farah plays half - thats a whole nuther can of worms. but i see your point - maybe he did good there, but thats not him. Mentally thats too much responsibilty for him - i dont believe he has that capacity for a permanant move there.

sorry - but i cant agree with commentators - they dont invest into the team as much as we do - therefore are basically are talking out of their you know what. if we put farah at half we might as well put mckinnon at prop. He runs just as fast as one.

AHX it's Friday night, have you been into the ruou de :slight_smile: Mckinnon at prop :exclamation:

We played Beau Ryan in the backrow, it's not the most stupid thing this club has done.

 

[Twodogs]

Sheens has lost the plot. backs running the first three tackles, forwards the next two then kick. Zzzzz….
We can defend or attack but not in the same game?! The ball should be spread every time Galloway plays the ball as he just rolls forward onto his front and sets us up for what? There's no speed or urgency and we are impotent as a result. I can't believe this can't be fixed.

Common theme : Galloway ayshford heighno Ellis Farah Benji good . The rest slow and lame. It's time to take out the trash starting with Sheens.

 

[Twodogs]

Oh, and another thing! Notice how well Beau plays after being dropped? Maybe it will do Lui, Moltzen, and others the world of good!

 

[alien]

Moltzen and Ryan are both 100 times the players that McKinnon is.

trolling again :laughing:

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Beau Ryan at lock would have so go down as the single dumbest move in the history of the game.

I'd love to see a Sheens lover try and defend that one.

 

[tiger05]

Thats a big call 05, I would have said only 89 times!

Sometimes I exaggerate to make a point. In this case I probably should have gone for the level that you've stated.

To everyone I apologize. I was wrong.

dont be so weak - you are entitled to your opinion

I was being sarcastic.

No I'm serious. McKinnon is terrible.

I'd going to bed but I will add that Sheens is a genius and we will win the comp this year or the next.

ha ha haaaa haaa haaa Oh thanks man I needed cheering up!!!!

Back on topic - Sheens is a great coach but he is really struggling at the moment but it'd be hard for anyone.

1\. You buy McKinnon as a proper fullback but he is too slow to be a first grader.
2\. You recognize point 1 and you replace him with Moltzen who is struggling getting into top form and adapting to playing fullback.
3\. You play Lui at 7 and persist with him but his form is really bad.
4\. Your second best player/your captain is murdering overlaps on a regular basis. Choosing to ignore you best player when we are on the attack and to top it off isn't looking like a first grader on a regular basis.
5\. Two of your best outside backs have significant injuries and the rest of them are slow as snails.

Lets face reality even the best readers of the game on this forum would struggle to fix things.

You do make one or two good points Tiger05 Sheens has basically backed himself into a corner with team selections . He will struggle to make changes at this stage of the season with our critical positions as it will take too long for those players to become accustomed to playing with each other and not losing games is getting to a critical stage imo . I think he has to stick with Lui now He will be better off with Benji beside him and his defence bar the bad defensive read which having since watched the footage again we were screwed anyway If he stayed out he would of been 1 on 1 with Pritchard with heaps of territory to move in . he just took too long to recognise this and needed to close it down earlier
No I'm serious. McKinnon is terrible.

I agree with you 05 in the point you make and that players have a responsibility to aim up to the coach giving them a go and showing faith in them. The players you have mentioned have been sadly lacking in that regard, although I can't put Farah in the same category as the others yet.

I haven't seen the replay yet, was Gibbs on then? I remember him being replaced but that's it if he was still sitting on those nice sideline chairs when Ryan was in the backrow then that is not good, if Gibbs was on then maybe the decision had something to do with Dwyer being injured and being a forward down?

AHX your joking aren't you The only time we looked dangerous was when Farah was 1st reciever in the 2nd half . How do you put two halves together that have rarely if ever played together and expect them to gel with maybe 3-4 training days and take apart a well organized defence .

well i would start by playing the genuine half at half , and the genuine 5/8 at 5/8.. tell the half to play his natural game….is that so hard ???????

sheens isnt a great coach … he walked into the club who had found a freak named benji marshall....

 

[underdog]

No one has seen the most obvious answer. Our best fullback at the moment is Mitch Brown..

Good under the high ball, runs it back hard, good defender…a touch of the Alan McMahons about him.

Brown and also Beau Ryan had great games last night - I reckon Mitch brown had more hitups than some of our forwards last night…

 

[tiger05]

This is a valid argument. Benji has carried a lot of us though hasn't he - both supporters, players and the coaching staff.

 

[tiger4ever]

Yes wests4ever well hes started this year getting rid of a few players and everyone jumps up and down about it.

We come 3rd last year and still in the hunt this year even though i admit things are looking pretty grim.

Easy to be a armchair critic.

 

[gazroc]

All Tim Sheens had to do was play Miller at no 7 and lui at six, be he didn't. He played a guy who has been performing all year at number 7 in the under 20s at number six, what the f###, is he kidding.

 

[Defiant]

It didnt matter that Miller had the 6 on his back Sheens split the halves all night.

What we needed was Lui passing to Miller of vice versa a lot more often.

Way too over-coached. Why are Marshall and Thruston the greatest in their positions? They play whats in front of them.
