We look much better with Wakeham and Averillo as a halves pairing, that's at least a positive.
Definitely do.. Lewis's tempo has too much of an affect after 20min. Considering Cogger plays a similar tempo to Wakeham and Averillo one thinks you have to give them all a shot in the spine together.

Can the telecasters please not put Bulldogs games on free to air if they are going to dish up this boring style of football. It just makes me depressed watching it.
unfortunately not, ch 9 has masterbations everytime the dogs lose

Is it me or did Wakeham find his feet as soon as lewis got the hook?
No its not just you. As soon as Wakeham is left to control the game we see spark, offloads and better 5th tackle kicks placed closer to the try line giving us better field position.

Once lewis went off they were competitive - Wakeham was much better as was the attack
Still question whether he can do it for 80 at NRL level yet. Would love to see how Cogger and Wakeham with Averillo from the back would go.

Averillo needs to stay an that should be it for Lewis If pay wants to keep his job a little longer. It’s a good combo and Averillo is a breath of fresh air.

Averillo came on and was relatively fresh for 25 minutes, still want to see how he goes playing 80 minutes. The kick for the try was good though, promising, and something we are missing. We didn't get to see him do anything like that in the trials, but if he can pull off kicks like that several times a game he could be worth sticking with.
