This has been the problem. Our juniors are always 'not ready'. It shouldn't matter who we are playing. Playing inexperienced juniors with all upside is better than persisting with players that aren't doing the job. Ryles has done it with alot of other positions it will be interesting to see if he brings in some fresh outside backs.
I thought I posted this earlier including explanations but alas.
All the players who weren't to the standard must go immediately. TDS, Kelly, JDB.
Pezet gets 35 minutes to hold onto his jersey otherwise he gets hooked for Twidle.
Izack Tago is looking really likely as the trade for Lomax so needs a couple weeks coming off the bench.
Guymer is the best option we have despite not being a great option. We need tackle making, line running 80 minutes edge forwards, don't push passes or get cute with it.
Williams, Doorey and Moretti play the fast paced explosive first contact style necessary to win games in the new era of first grade. Sworming defense and less wrestle. Big Sam and Junior will roll the Broncos middle with Walker after Haas comes off heaping pressure on Carrigan who will give away penalties and force passes/offloads.
Maybe Latu ist quite ready but I really can't stand Kelma and he is the last thing we need right now. Who knows, maybe he will rise to the occasion.
Id love us to get someone like Luron Patea as part of the Trade with Lomax/Tago and if we did I'd try turn him into an edge player.
"Harry Grants second one where he ran through Smith and Iongi oh boy the tip sheet out the window and fatigue regardless both of his tries should never have happened.The first one was deadset was an embarrassment Paulo and whoever lie on the ground…"
"Different game and different rules it's hard to compare really.
What I will say Kearney never amounted to much as a head coach and probably was just an assistant at best."
"Exactly. Fans will be less frustrated with the actual referee sometimes getting 50/50 calls wrong. They usually even themselves out. What fans of the game can't cop though, is the bunker getting so many decisions obviously wrong after they have all…"

Probably just the titans
Ok it is a Saturday night and im bored. I'll have a turn, pick the team i would pick, nor that anyone cares. Hopgood suspended in mind too.
1. Iongi
2. Simonsson
3. Penisini
4. Russell
5. Samrani
6. Pezet (i just would not throw either Twidle or Talataina in now, particularly v Brisbane)
7. Moses
8. Williams
9. Smith
10. Paulo
11. Tuilagi (though not great, he is physical)
12. Kautoga
13. De Belin
14. Walker
15. Tuivaiti
16. Moretti
17. Guymer
18. Papali'i
19. Da Silva
I considered Kelly at 19, but also do not trust Papali'i at 9 for a long period of time if Smith went down.
The best clubs debut their kids against tough teams
