"Ryles said as much. In the presser he said if Mitch wasn't picked then he'd likely be playing against Canberra, but that he hadn't passed the week's injury return protocols."
"I have always said the only way MON goes is if Ryles demands it. Even then it would be difficult but if Ryles goes to the board and says he cannot do what he needs with current recruitment people they may listen. He still needs to get better too but…"

"When I saw Ryles make that comment about recruitment pre-game I got the feeling he was having a subtle dig at the front office tbh. Seemed to say it tongue in cheek and then quickly changed topic. Made me wonder if there are problems behind the…"
"Met him once at the 2018 fan day. Was a top bloke. As a footballer, he is the prototype in how a damaging Prop forward looks.

"Perhaps Moses also knew the importance of a win, and decided it's not very high. This year has turned into another development year, where it's better off giving game time to rookies and depth players.

"That list of 5 players were responsible for half of our missed tackles count. Tackle applications across most of the team are not FG standard. Teams still make metres because we are throwing multi players too high at the body. Legs tackles are…"
"We looked a much better team when Riley was starting, De Belin is offering next to nothing, play Edwards at lock."

Hope he finds some happiness and peace now. "

Remember Rodney Hogg
Rodney was a late arrival to Test cricket at age 27. Born in Victoria he was overlooked by state selectors and moved to Adelaide to find an earlier path to Shield.He was selected and within a year he was noticed by Alan Davidson who mentioned his…

Kane Evans
I'm sure by the time you guys wake up down under you might've seen the interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSktA9oLux4). Among other things, he comes out as gay. I remember his stint at the Warriors after he left us being calamitous. He was…

IF Moses played against Dogs. Would Eels Have Won
If Mitchell Moses had played against the Bulldogs yesterday afternoon would Parra have won? I think the Eels were definitely robbed by some really disgraceful refereeing and bunker calls against Parra and some that should have gone against the…

Cannot see why not, but unfortunately the battling line looks as fragile as poppa's hips!lol it appears it could be a tough summer
Nothing wrong with my hips Mickey. It what hangs off them thats a bit wobbly!
Please no pics pop's!lol Keep it PG.
In the absence of 'experts' in the field I'd think the batsmen at the top of the order need to book a bulk visit to a good shrink. The fog and uncertainty need to expelled so they can play once again assured. Only Travis, Marsh and Carey are currently mentally fit to play a role in the test team. India has a dynamic bowling group, but they're aided large by the meek effort of some of our batters.
Hope you're right Mick, I always look to our cricket team to take my mind away from the o'rf season. If there's no bounce back from them, my only back-up is the Thunder.
Yeah RJ, cricket is a great game takes our minds off footy for while but now its seems NRL is 365 day business - all it takes is a great knock or great partnership and it can turn a series
They need a talk from Steve Waugh. Learn what it takes for the mental disintegration of your opponents. To do that, you have to be completely switched on and focussed yourself.
The lack of red ball cricket has also not helped. Where is the Sheffield Shield? That's supposed to produce Test Cricketers, but all we have seen is T20 and a few one-dayers.
Team overall is getting too old and the current state of Shield cricket is uninspiring.
We are on the decline, unless a few unexpected youngsters jump out of the ground.
The bowlers tend to be pretty good game to game but the batters (ex Head) are basically flat track bullies.
Khawaja (38) should be pensioned off. Labuschagne (30) is hopelessly out of form. Smith (35) seems to be past it. Starc (34) is all over the shop innings to innings. Lyon (37) is not ever going to do a Warne and rip thru a team. Hazlewood (33) is good but he is no McGrath. Cummins (31) is inconsistent but generally good.
We miss Green but also need a genuine bowling all-rounder who can be our Flintoff, Pollock etc. I thought Cummins might turn into that but his batting is getting worse.
My opinion only and I am sure others will have different thoughts.
Have to agree with everything you've said Badger. Depressing but true. Also we can't continually bowl using the seam while the blokes from the Sub-Continent excell in that manner.
