Official Round 8 - Bulldog v Shark - Team List + Match Discussion

[Dawain87]

I guess he got the news he’s playing this week…

 

[Mitch Connor]

14. Josh Reynolds
7. Matt Burton

19. Karl Oloapu

Calling it.

 

[NPC83]

No he hasn't been playing that position all season but KO has been playing that position all his life.

Bro the more I think about it the more I think Flanno is getting dropped. He was pushed out of HB last week as well late in the game. Ciro is going to try something different.

 

[Roger the alien]

I'll be surprised if that's the team that runs out against the Sharks

 

[dawso047]

How are Avo and Davey playing when both are injured. Agree with other comments, very little sense in naming Flanno at 6. Predicting Skelton to play wing with Burns or Casey to play centre eith Avo injured. Don't know about the 6/7 situation. Hughes to replace Davey on the bench.

 

[dogwhisperer]

So why has he been playing 7 all year then? Seems to me the coaching staff has no plan.

Mate, he's been swapping around with Rajab and Hayward

100%, I bet you Avo will drop off because of his knee, Burns will go to centre and Skelton will take Burn's spot on the wing. And KF will get dropped for KO for the number 6.

Flanno to five eight is a masterstroke you guys watch ciro is a genius

 

[NPC83]

Happy with all that !

Reynolds and knock on more off the bench this has disaster written all over it

Surely if you have plans to try and use him in first grade this year you play him in the same role for the sake of confidence and continuity. I just don't get it. Nor do I get the strategy of naming a player only to drop them and play someone else. It all reeks of Barrett tactics to me. Happy for KO if he gets his debut, but there's no need for all this shuffling. It's weird AF.

Why? Okunbor has been pretty good as a bench forward this year.

 

[GoTheDoggies]

Lol Burton HB

Ciraldo’s next move is to blood the young gun at five eighth.

I’m not getting to caught up with the numbers on the jersey as long as Flanagan is gone asap.

Tough assignment against a red hot sharks side on debut with an injury plagued side. But i really hope he goes well.

 

[GoTheDoggies]

Even if we had our dream team out there beating sharks is a long shot.

The best bet is to inject some energy vs Dragon with the young guns and get the two points

 

[Rebuilding Phase]

ill think ill have a couple drinks before this one lol.

I’m starting the night before so I can wake up feeling like shit just so the game can’t make me feel worse!!

Okunbor has been good in the forwards this season. He just can't ever see the wing again, EVER. :P

 

[Philmus]

Will be going back to rugby probably....

i’d be considering it if i were him. getting snubbed for casey when you’re killing it in cup must be demoralising

 

[GoTheDoggies]

He is doing a job there, but looking at that bench without Pele or an impact forward I just cannot feel confident of getting two points with that bench.

 

[Philmus]

also imagine the disappointment if the team list was written down in a hurry and ciro just made a mistake with 6 & 7 meanwhile the kennel is in full blown conspiracy mode about KO and saturdays team list ends up 6. burto 7. KF hahahahaha
