So frustrating to see this team with no gamble whatsoever with an outside back or a half who show some flair. Same old Hutch and Taaffe. On the other side, spoon contenders Tigers are having a real crack with some good young talent, they were in the same boat as us, maybe worse. Dolphins 2nd year in roster firing AGAIN.

I hate to be a doom merchant, I really do, but this boring attacking side is killing me! And WTF do we employ Taylor for??? At least CC has improved our defence.

Yup fucking tired of the season being over by Easter.
At least we are getting better this year game by game.
Could all go the shit very quickly.
Let’s see what the process is like this weekend!
A lot of us would like some change.
Me personally Taaffe to halfback.
Burton to fullback.
Hutch to 5/8
Skeleton to replace Wilson.
I’d rather see us try something than stick to what we have and loose every weekend.
I don’t want to see anyone get promoted into the team if their defense is suspect.
At least we have something that is working for us.

Man that Roosters team is stacked. Hopefully the expected wet weather keeps us in the game.
Trouble with that in wet weather the forwards have to aim up in the middle.
Will see the trend after ten or so minutes if we have the grit

Lets hope it’s not a 15min start and then sitting on the bench for the last 65 mins
This will be Hughes first biggest test to date.
Got to take it up hard and be available to do so every set, sometimes twice.
This fast moving aggressive Roosters pack will expose any weakness he might have in the balls department.
If only Curran had another 10kgs. He has been a standout making his own way without any help from our non existent creative halves.

People criticise Ciraldo on his selections. But, the guys he has selected are the best available.
And most of the critics learn their footy off the Fat Man on the TV.
Might be close to the best available, but not in the right positions
Sexgton back in Hutch to 5/8 and Burton to centres

Roosters 20+ you can’t expect to pick the same team
Nd expect a different result. If we couldn’t beat a crap rabbits team we have no hope against a fit and firing roosters team. Forwards are going to steam roll us!

Morrin out is a blessing in disguise. He is a fringe first grader at best.
Morrin would be good if he was surrounded by a better group of forwards. He has great footwork and tries his guts despite his size. I always wanted Kautoga to start the season because he was good in the trials and provides size compared to Morrin. Yes, you are right. Blessing in disguise.

My one-month free Kayo has expired so I am fine with a thrashing in a Foxtel only game! Sadly, I think the Dog's F/A will be getting a hammering.

Only positives this week, debut for kautoga, go well young man and Wilson back, should never have been dropped.
Hutchinson should never play 7 ever again ciraldo is seriously delusional.
