  • Are you kidding me?

    Barrett needs to swing the axe. How can you put forward the same team (with the exception of Matterson) that got pumped by the Storm?

    None of this makes sense

     

  • Barrett obviously happy to accept mediocrity too. How can Sivo for starters even be in the squad after last week as a starting point? FFS

  • Lol, clown college stuff 

  • Maybe there's a clean slate / form judged from now thing going on ..but this is pretty deflating after the big news last night. 

    MANY Players over MANY weeks have shown that they are not up to a standard expected of NRL players, wether it be attitude, or ability , several players just flat out dont deserve to be there.

    BA finally faced the consequences of the teams poor form, but the players, the ones who have physically let the club and fans down with dog shit performances..free pass. 

  • He probably couldn't make any changes due to having 1 day only , but before they cull the squad in 2 days time I'd move these 4 from the extended bench in and drop Lane, Ofa, Asi and Makatoa:

    Reserves:

    18. Brendan Hands

    20. Ethan Sanders

    21. Wiremu Grieg

    22. Luca Moretti

     

  • this is a joke right?

  • The more things change the more they stay the same

  • No No No No No. Can I shout it out any F%6&8&6 louder 
    Bloody Numnuts, BA just got sacked you idiot for this exact team. How stupid do you have to be to then go with that same lineup. Dumb and Dumberer.

    I'll give you a hint Mr Barrett, try considering dropping Lane, Sivo and Lussick. Moving Brown to 5/8 making Hopgood captain and bringing in Sanders at halfback.

    Put Penisni on notice, Start Junior in the run on side.

      • I hope your right HKF, but  for Trent this is his oppurtunity to put his name forward for a first grade coaching gig. The players have been deadset lazy when fatigue sets in, if they wouldnt do it for BA and Barrett before, i dont really know why the players would do it just for Barrett now.

        Perhaps its a case of the players must now stand up and show there worth to the future coach. But the way they have been playing they deserve a rocket just as much as the sacking of BA.

  • Keep in mind Barrett only found out last night he was taking over, and you'd expect had a pretty busy day today.

    Might just be a case of copy & paste from last week from the club here, and he might make some changes before game day once he's had a chance to digest.

    If not, it will be interesting to see the players reactions.
