        • This explains the mind boggling decision to not contest the Paulo charge from last week. 

  • Why didn't he rest RCG last week against the last placed team? He's lost the plot.

    • That would certainly seem to be the smarter move IMO.

    • Because he chose last week to give Paulo a rest/limited minutes. Do you honestly have to be a deadset sook about everything BA does. 

      • Can you stop sucking BA's knob? Since when is it a crime to ask a fucking question? You're a dcikhead.

  • Smart play to rest RCG he needs a rest. I'd say Field is injury? If not perhaps it's an indication that Taka might be an option in the semi.  I know sterlo was keen for Taka to play 6 with Brown out and I agree. Big body plenty of experience 

    • Not if means losing and missing out on the top 4 - then it will be a case of string the bastard up.

      • I'm backing the coach if he think he needs a rest he needs a rest. Stuart is playing his reserve grade side.

      • On his day Takairangi is a match winning player. I actually like him at 6 because his defensive issues are all about lack of lateral pace and that's much less of an issue at 6 as against centre. If he's there to make the tackle he usually makes an effective tackle. He's possibly the most gifted ball player in our squad.

"Our spine is settled except 6. I don't think Penrith would be 100% happy with Tulagi at 6. Brisbane and Warriors are trying to fit 3 halves into 2. Melbourne would be the most settled spine tbh. You expect Moses, Ryley and Iongi will just get better…"

"Not at all I think there's still big question marks in the spine you don't know what you have at hooker just yet and 6 flip a coin we are going to have another 6 the third one in 3 years.
Regardless this teams high tide IMO as constructed is a top 8…"
