How are people annoyed that the team is filled with rubbish players when the whole squad is filled with... you guessed it rubbish players. People whinge when he doesn’t make changes and whinge when he doesn’t, newsflash our team is no good
With what he has got. He can name a much better team.

1. Meany
2. DWZ
3. Hoppa
4. Harper/ Averillo
5. Smith
6. Cogger
7. Wakeham

Even

1. DWZ
2. Smith
3. Hoppa
4. Harper/Averillo
5. Meany

Assuming Tolman is injured

8. Sue
9. JMK (fml)
10. Napa
11. Jacko
12. Britt
13. Elliot

14. Averillo/katoa
15. RFM

I reckon that’s the best 17 we can possibly field right now with Foran and Tolman out.

Bring on Sunday.
Wakeham must be injured too bud...

Yeah but the changes don't make sense. Lewis was benched last game with Wakeham taking over. Since then Wakeham is re-signed, but Lewis and Cogger both start ahead of him when Wakeham and Averillo looked good together at the end of the Cowboys game...

Sue hasn't played since the early rounds of last season. Renouf has been one of the few bright spots this season and he doesn't get to start.

Randomly picking players out nowhere isn't going to maximise the potential of the team and could unsettle the squad soon if it continues.
I agree on the halves but at some point you have to realise none of them are that good and it’s just the best of a beaten bunch, as for toomaga I think he is more suited to a bench role same as Ogden. It’s by no means a great team but we can’t necessarily do a whole lot better, giving up on the team because suaso sue gets a game is ridiculous

Also could be the halves rotation that a few coaches talked about earlier.

If Pay is rotating the halves, I can see it being Lewis/Cogger one week, then Wakeham/Foran the next.

With my glass half full, I’ll say at least:

“nice bench”
You can legit win a GF with that bench in my opinion. Too bad the starting lineup isn't anywhere near good enough.

Haven't seen such a huge pile off rubbish in my life. Why is Smith still in the centres and wakeham isn't even in the team?

Yep at the end of the day we have an average squad. Thats just the reality of it. I certainly dont agree with all of his selections but you can only polish a turd so much.

A big squad overhaul is required

Very disappointing Foran isn’t ready....... we need recruits desperately. Our depth is so low now
