So Blake has been brilliant on the wing, gets moved back to centre where he was average and gets named there again this week.
Simonsson who was just plain useless once again retains his spot.
Papali'i being wasted at Lock while two genuine Ball playing locks are on the Bench.
Absolutely ridiculous.
I guess it worked so well against the Dogs so we may as well go the same way this week against the Roosters.
BEM , the rooster coach is a no hoper I would not have have seen every try scored against us and how we didn't adjust each and every time . Coupled with their own dominance over our pack mentality I am not confident at all.
it is admiral to pick a team to respond to a flogging but if it goes south again - questions must be asked whether he can hold the fort Ba.
Bem why was your blog shut down? I was going to comment and realized it was closed.
No idea PT47
Yep that is just great, Waqa proves yet again, he is a dud at 4 and good at 2, so the coach picks him there again. No accounatability, players know that if they dish up shit, there are zero repurcussions.
Blake to wing, Opacic to centre, Niukore to the bench, Papali'i to the 2nd row, Matterson or Brown to lock and Simonsson to the Tigers or Centrelink.
Agree Simonsson needs a stint in reggies. I have no idea how this kid is a protected species.
Also starting the non ball playing Ice over Brown or Matto is another big brain Arthurian fail.
Niukore needs to be on the bench where his utility value is good.
Ice needs to start on the edge where he was in fantastic form.
Definitely what I would go with Raptor.
I have never seen a game where the whole side played poorly ever. I wouldn't be blaming Gutherson for all the team efforts either. It's no shame loosing a game by a few points as well it happens. Sadly some better coaches sacked this week 😥 but Eels don't like change. Also I'll make it clear posted here Panthers went behind Gould's back to offer job to Cleary Snr out west. Gould was not involved and parted ways.
Parakeet on social media a good fifty percent say it was thrown
apparently there was some gambling advantage re a multi pick that would have paid our millions
not sure how accurate this is as I don't gamble but nothing surprises me in life anymore
