    Brown was 7 against Wests and Canberra and played left too. But yeah it is just a thing, Sanders will definately be Halfback that is for sure. He has been playing on the left all year in Cup.

  Does that mean they have to swap sides if they swap numbers, FMD.

In Darwin one dummy half in the heat , in the cool at Manly two dummy half's ,where's the logic , must be a mistake in the positions for the halves as Brad Authur could not be that stupid, could he .

  He is a week behind. Resting Carty this week after he wad clearly not ready last week.

  Don't worry. Hands will get 5 minutes at the 75 minute mark

  Head scratcher for sure.

  But Talagi was meant to be the X-factor weapon on the bench, a mr fix it. Oh well that plan failed after a week, lets go with a specialist Hooker when we play our starter for 80 and apparently have forwards busted and expect them to play big minutes as Matto is on an edge. Makatoa ain't getting many mins i am sure.

Lussick, just really? Thinks Moretti has been a bit hard done by. Others have had longer streaks of poor performances and no consequence. Yes, he has had better games than he did against the Dolphins but he has been solid prior to that.

There is a massive problem going on in reserve grade in my opinion with our NRL players.
- Hands is our second choice dummy half but has played most of his time in the halves in reggies. How the fuck is he going to get any practice.
- Talagi is apparently our future fullback so trained their in pre-season and first cup games. Than got selected at 5/8 and centre in the NRL. He has been dropped back to reggies to play 5/8 now
- Russel is playing centre in reggies despite playing wing in the NRL.
This is so fucking stupid because the spine is arguably the most important part of an NRL team yet our back up players are not even getting practice their in NSW Cup.

  Speaking of that EA. Why do you think players like Martin and Tuivaiti are not getting a run. Tuivaiti has a top 30 deal next year, they are not performing in Flegg why let him waste away in Flegg, let him get some experience in Cup. Plus speak all this time about Talagi is a future Fullback, then place him at 6 in Cup. Like seriously? I understand we probably needed him at 6 since we didn't have one but it is a joke when the kid needs time at Fullback as much as possible.
