Injured indefinitelyWhere is Corey Allan?
Crededence is not definiteLy not ready, ZDC definitely no, only one would be Kiraz imoEither way there will probably be several changes next week as it's Round 11 and development/Reserves players can play without an exemption.
So hopefully we see Kiraz, Credence, maybe Docker-Clay on the bench and a few others..
Who do you expect to come in and replace the current players ?Just bizarre a team with 1win puts in one of its worst performances yet lineup is unchanged if there aren’t changes next round trent truely is clueless
Ok so who does he bring into the Centres and who does he replace Naden with on the wing (and don't say Kiraz.) plenty of people early on in the year were saying Nadens not a centre his best position is on the wing blah blah... now because he has had a few shockers ...FFS. For a lack of better word The Dementia shown by the Kennel sometimes really does my head in.Wtf is wrong with this spastic coach. Keeps Averillo in the centres, keeps naden on the wing who is potentially one of the worst wingers in the game, jmk is there for his defence but does fuck all in attack and continues with Jackson in the 13. Seriously Newcastle to smack us by 13+… he deserves everything that’s coming to him. Joke of a coach
Fark me, only 1 player (Thompson) is selected in the same position for us as last year and there are 2 that have changed positions (Averillo and Waddell), FMD, 3 out of 17, it's no wonder that we have very little gel, not much in the way of combinations built up over time playing together.We kick off Magic Round this weekend and I thought it would be interesting to compare our side to the corresponding game last year when we played Canberra at Suncorp and were beaten 20-18. What a difference a year makes.
Cotric, Meaney and DWZ scored our tries and Averillo kicked 3 from 3. Luke Thompson made the most tackles and most metres in this game while DWZ scored the most fantasy points.
What a difference a year makes.

We didn’t drop the ball for onceIn all seriousness.. How the fuck did we beat roosters?
Last year I did. Hasn't had as many chances this year but unfortunately seems to have gone backwards. Only early days thoughAnyone rate patalo?
Havent heard boo about him. I wonder if there is more at playInjured indefinitely
I'd put Jacko prop rotation onlyOk so who does he bring into the Centres and who does he replace Naden with on the wing (and don't say Kiraz.) plenty of people early on in the year were saying Nadens not a centre his best position is on the wing blah blah... now because he has had a few shockers ...FFS.

Yeah I was disappointed at our result on Friday night, we should have won that game. I do not however say the reason we lost was because Gould was no longer coaching us, Gould was never the coach, Barrett was. I think the problem is JJ. Not his ball playing or even his niggle/ six agains he gives away. I think he expects to lose, and that is how the players see it too. You can also see it in the Pressers, when the first things goes against them on the field JJ probably starts preparing his responses in the presser rather than trying to lift the team. I think more responsibility needs to be given to JAC.
Both JAC and Burton were doing everything they could possibly do to turn the team around, but the rest of the team were brought down by JJ. We need to get the team listening to JAC and Burton and stop listening to JJ. JJ needs to fall on his sword and step down from the captaincy.
He goes alright. Will only get better with more game timeAnyone rate patalo?
Will credence b good to go in 2023Crededence is not definiteLy not ready, ZDC definitely no, only one would be Kiraz imo
Imo he is at least 2 years of first grade. He also isn’t very fast but yes he has potentia. I’m pretty sure he is only 19 so no time to rushWill credence b good to go in 2023
Yeah we lose this weekend and I think Ill give league a miss for a while.This game is going to answer a lot of questions for me regarding our team.
Neutral ground for both teams.
Knight do have some players back in their squad.
But still very low on confidence and will play desperate for a win.
Let's be honest with ourselves.
This game is winnable.
We really should win this game, and if we don't that will tell a lot.
Not only will it almost certainly cement us for the spoon.
But it will prove without a doubt that we have not improved as a team.
And that will do me for season 2022.
Yep, A Stranger a British mini series..few twists in it liked it.Has anyone got a suggestion for something to watch on Netflix instead, or will I just rearrange my sock drawer again? I have zero expectation for this game, and can't watch it with mates, because I'm embarrassed that the players have no idea what to do anymore. They are numb. Does Gus not see this?
For starters naden is best suited as a centre wether you think so or not. He gets caught out in defence and needs someone outside him to cover. He has butter fingers also so the less he has to leap for the ball the better. You say who does he replace its simple. Slap okunbour in there. Yes he gets a lot of hate on here but he isn’t as bad as naden. Ave shouldn’t be a centre simple. He is to small and basically has nothing to offer as a centre.Ok so who does he bring into the Centres and who does he replace Naden with on the wing (and don't say Kiraz.) plenty of people early on in the year were saying Nadens not a centre his best position is on the wing blah blah... now because he has had a few shockers ...FFS.

Is that you trentWho do you expect to come in and replace the current players ?
Love to see what you come up with cause the simple fact is who ever comes in is no better than the players their replacing .
Besides last weeks game , with the exception of a few players , the team has been stable and building slowly , certainly against the roosters.
So you don’t make changes for the sake of Making changes If you don’t have anyone better to replace
