Mick Ennis update

[Captain Kickass]

Whatdya reckon folks ?

It's a bluff.
Or he's a shot duck ?

 

[GRKDOG]

Wouldnt he have some sort of moon boot or something if it was that bad?

 

[K E]

Souffs think it's a bluff. The wife beater (the black one.... the one that plays Fullback....) thinks he will play.

 

[Mr Beast]

You'd think so. Or strapping. Or at least a visible bandaid

 

[finchie]

Think hes gone tbh

 

[finchie]

Just announced on radio that hes out of gf
shattering for us and him

 

[likeadoggy]

really bad luck mate

 

[Ecca]

It is clearly for a team photo, if he was in a boot, they would have taken him out of it for the photo

 

[Fully Sik Drop kick]

Ennis has a great poker face tbh. Perfect bluff

 

[Hacky McAxe]

Bugger. Such a pity, really wish we could send him off a winner. On the plus side all omens so far have pointed to the Dogs winning this year, this is another omen that'll get us over the line.

Why would they make a decision today. A decision will be made on ennis as late as possible as they want him to play.
Unless they have had different scans etc.
would love to know if Moses and Reni are training at hooker as suggested by the tele.

 

[Sauce Head]

Brutal if true. I am just not sure who is going to fill his defensive role. Whilst Mybe, Reynolds are great in their positions their defence is not at the same standard as Ennis.
TBH the person who could make the tackles is Hokko but I cant see us weakening that area.

Noooooooooooooooooo u cant say that...... he is an ornament of our great game............. (sarcasm here people)

Still, she is such a great gal to stick by him.... it must be love

Didnt Melbourne Storm pay $100k in legal fees or was that paid to her as hush money????

 

[Ahecee]

It is seeming more and more certain that he won't be playing, they will give it to the very last minute no doubt, but you have to be at least doubtful at this point. Filling the defensive gap is a huge issue, Graham and Tolman already put in big work, another big tackling game will be needed by Finucian I'd expect regardless of who fills Ennis' role.

I'd lean toward Maitua purely on experience and size......... not that I expect Des to do anything other than name an unchanged line up later today, maybe with a further extended bench than usual, lol

He was in the paper today saying how 'they cant take my GF rings away from when I was at the Storm'. YOUR TEAM FKN CHEATED MATE - YOU WOULD NOT HAVE WON WITHOUT CHEATING - HOW HARD IS THAT TO UNDERSTAND?

I tend to agree. If Reni can stay in the middle and just tackle then thats all we can ask. Ennis running from dummy half is not a huge part of his game. It is more the defence that we will miss.

service is more important, if we can't get decent service from dummy half our forwards will get dominated.

 

[GRKDOG]

Is he worth risking a bench spot?

I mean if he could play for 20 mins needled up?

Hate to see him go out like this, especially if we come away with the win

 

[The DoggFather]

Hate to say it but I think Browne will make way for Mbye and Maitua in for Ennis.

 

[Wolfmother]

I always wanted to prove to all the haters how much we lose without Ennis but not like this ... Sh*t
