      Do you think we can afford to have both Papalli & Da Silva on the bench? or do you mean Papalli instead of Da Silva?

      • Cʜɪᴇғy Mclovin 🐐 > HAMMER March 24, 2026 at 5:05pm

        Da silva turned thr game last week.  He isn't going anywhere soon

      • Mr 'BringBackFitzy' Analyst > HAMMER March 24, 2026 at 5:06pm

        Can't afford to have both. All I'm saying is we need to try something different. Sorry Tallyn. 

        On a side note the first 25mins of the dragons game they looked very lethargic especially Riley. 

        • LB > Mr 'BringBackFitzy' Analyst March 24, 2026 at 5:11pm

          If Ryley looked Lethargic, i would rather a proper Hooker in Tallyn to come in.

    • LB > Mr 'BringBackFitzy' Analyst March 24, 2026 at 5:10pm

      I would rather Da Silva than Joash at this stage. Tallyn made a difference on Sunday.

      • EA > LB March 24, 2026 at 5:22pm

        Dropping Da Silva after that performance would only be horrible for his confidence and progression 

        • HAMMER > EA March 24, 2026 at 6:32pm

          He's getting better each week so we need to stick with him. As much as i'd like to see Papalli in there somewhere, i think the only way we see him is if there's an injury to either Pezet or one of the hookers, or if Pezet gets dropped at some point.

    Joash gets the no.19 for the 4th week in a row. How much is this hindering his development? It's not right, he must feel like he's in limbo, can't be picked for Cup and can't crack the 1st grade 17. It would suck. I wouldn't blame him if he starts looking elsewhere for opportunities.

    • JC > Acme March 24, 2026 at 5:22pm

      He played 7 in reserve grade last week against the dragons so he is getting some game time.

"Well they may feel he needs to fix a few things and will be fine. Maybe even the mindset of he could be fine now but why play him when he can be more ready in from Cup?
Lorenzo is in a great spot right now, Flegg eligible and starting in Cup. He…"
