  • LOLLL!!!

  • Hey kwitt. My blod was official straight from ba

    If you want to add yours to mine you are welcome. But don't give me this  official crap

    • So you reckon you got inside info from ba.
  • And i'll say it against the bloke is far too loyal or stubborn for his own good.

    No wonder juniors lose confidence and end up going elsewhere.  They know they have no hope cracking it here they will be overlooked for an experienced plodder.

    • The best players are in the 25 to 32 age range. You don't want too many merkins in your team younger than that, and we already have French, Gutherson, Moses and Moeroa in our top 17.

  • BA Has to give them a chance to redeem themselves, But if Cameron King tackles like a girl again, Evans & Matagi offer Zero impact, & Auva'a plays drunk again, fire the lot of them. Manu, Scott and Taka also need to life their game. 

  • Why would Arthur change the team after one week? It's basically admitting he picked the wrong side round 1. Makes him look pretty silly after having a whole offseason to get it right.
    • Yeah he would rather not look silly then pick the best team to win a game of footy.......

  • I doubt that bench will stay the same. I expect to at least see Will Smith included.

  • I'm with @intram 
    Obviously Brad had faith in the squad, and despite an awful second half - Moses being out for halfa, and Normy being down when Panthers put most of their points on us can't be discounted. Not to mention the Panther clearly having hit foot on the line during that try. I reckon Parra will have a point to prove this week, and no doubt will get the 2 points - We made top 4 last year, stop being so negative; you were all completely full of praise for BA, and the squad we have. 1 loss and you're all behaving as if we're in September. Relax, and let BA do his job. He's a great coach, and gets a ton of praise from the squad.

I see it either being a close game with Parra winning or us winning by over 12 points."
