Good to see ciro rewarding form to be first 17, Sutton hasn’t been good enough

 

[Doggiezbrah]

I do not understand the obsession with Okunbor. He is a big body but he absolutely sucks lol. This experiment needs to end.

 

[underdogsontop2246]

Don't be surpised if Ryan Sutton is released soon. The fact that Okunbor has a spot over Sutton should worry his future.

 

[underdogsontop2246]

Morrin and Hughes are really good and quality players.

I doubt that bro. He's had a bit of poor form in the last two games but put in the hard yards in the earlier rounds when we had no forwards to rotate.

Edwards named as prop now. I haven't watched much reserve grade, from what I have seen Hughes stands out.

How has Edwards been going?

Also who drops out from the bench for Oloapu?

Both dragons wingers weigh the same or more than Edwards playing as a prop.

Bulldogs playing in Bizarro world

 

[Dyldog]

Reynolds man of the match

What happened to Sutton?

Well the real reason is he is soft as baby shit.

PC reason is "injured".

 

[hackenbush]

With our current bench, will need to see our starting pack manage big minutes. Especially TPJ.

We won't miss him at all.

He REALLY needs to grow some balls overnight...

 

[Doggiezbrah]

I think Edwards was impressive in his first match. I know he isn’t in the top 30 but might be one the reasons why Davey was “released”. I rather him on the bench from round 11 instead of Okunbor. We could even move RFM to prop and Edwards to lock.

 

[WillieMasonFan]

Edwards has got some skills and good decision making on the field, but these days we just seem to be seeing really big guys succeed in the forwards ... what happened to Ruben Cotter ....

 

[bradyk]

well we need big games from Burton, TPJ, Mahoney and Preston tomorrow. They're only players that would make Dragon 13.
