What are the odds that Kasiano will get the downgrade required that he fronts the Eels next weekend? It`s a no brainer really- he will be sweet to go!! Reynolds got a grading of one (1) for his tackle on Tate. As there are five gradings of seriousness that tackle was deemed the least serious!! That tackle could have killed Tate. I expect the judiciary to blame Cheery-Evans for his injury. He should not have jumped so high in kicking the ball!. Kasiano did nothing wrong and is being made the scapegoat--blah, blah, blah. Mr Toovey, Manly`s coach, says it was an illegal tackle. But he would say that would he not? I wonder if the Canterbury mafia fronts the judiciary this week as they did last week? They got the result they wanted though. Too bad Reynolds was out played by Manly on Friday night. Thats gratitude for you.

  • it was nothing
  • I hope he does play Robert. I want to see just how good our forwards r.

    We held our own on Friday night against the Ozzie front row so bring on the Dogs Pack.

    IMO the constant weekly challenge will be the only way for our boys to really develop. To be a fair dinkum force in the near future, our pack has to perform consistently & eliminate the erratic capitulations that currently occur.

    • I know what you're getting at, but, I really can't agree with this "wanting things to be difficult, to help our players grow" thing.  It's the same as the "Let's play our home game at the Rabbitoh's home ground, to help us learn how to win away games" thing.  Sorry, but I don't see it.

      We'll learn when we're ready.

      If we want to make life difficult for ourselves, why don't we bring back Stuart and Spags, and play Bilbo in the second row to help teach our players cover defense, and rest Hayne for 20 minutes each match so the players get used to playing without him,

      Or how about, screw that, we consider ourselves fortunate when the opposition are without a rep player or two.  Or when the board somehow make a logical decision and play our home games AT HOME.

  • Kasiano hasn't been in trouble for a while.  It'll be grade one, early guilty plea, and he won't miss a week.

  • I did not see the tackle but becuase he plays with the dog he be sweet

  • Junior Paulo v Kasiano!
  •  Ron,  if he does, and I hope he does, then I am wrong with my thesis. We should know by Wednesday night. I feel that the Canterbury mafia will get him scott-free!

  • Imo opinion he had well and truly committed to tackle before Dce jumped and kicked. If it was a Parra player I'd be pissed off if he didn't get off

  • Kasiano did nothing wrong imo. If he had kicked the ball & basically stayed on the ground Kasiano would have tackled him about waist height.

    •  Yes Glenn, Put Cherry-Evans on report he should get a week at least!
