    Let's Trot with Burton

    16:35 - mentions that he's putting in everything to succeed as being a halfback

    Opinion Perspective

    This is in no way meant to excuse the score line, or performances yesterday from the coaching staff and players but there are a few truths that need to be said to balance out the suicide cult running rampant on here. We went into yesterday with 8/17 guys that are 3 weeks into playing together...

    Opinion If...

    ... We sign Mahoney, this would have to go down as one of, if not the single greatest season of signings ever, right?

    Opinion Who should be our #7 2022 - a comparison for the stat nerds

    I've had some spare time recently so I collated all the relevant halves stats from this last season into Excel and then went about looking into averages, per possessions, usages and usage tendencies. The first table shows players productivity per 100 Possessions, the second shows usage...

    Opinion The Allan Issue

    The theory behind the signing of Corey Allan was sound. Good size, ball playing, part of a winning culture at the Rabbits and actually really contributed there last year when Latrell dropped out. The problem is that he doesn't fit as well as we would have hoped here (yes, with limited...

    Opinion Thoughts

    1. The hate for S.Katoa has officially gone too far. 2 clean line breaks, sweet little kick for the try assist, when he gets it right - his service is crisp. Not saying he's great or that he should be resigned etc, just trying to offer objectivity. 2. We keep saying we've spent enough on backs...

    Opinion Top 30 restriction

    Canterbury Cup experts. Who gets a run when the restriction drops? We know Schoupp is more than likely, Deitz and Topine are probably always in and around that extended squad, but who else does Baz try?

    Rumour Oil/Inside Information/Prediction - Consolidated Thread

    Just wanted to collect all the rumours regarding Burton, Naden, Leniu, Crichton etc in one place. I'm going to go through a bunch of posts in the coming days and edit this post with a summary of any posters oil/inside info etc. Be interesting to get a gauge on whose accurate. If you are...

    Opinion Schoupp

    What's the consensus on this bloke? Does he get a run next year?

    Opinion Napa

    The game is blowing past him: unfit, slow, 1 dimensional, lazy. Might have been several factors but we seemed to look far more dangerous with To'omaga and Sue in the middle - quick feet through the ruck. Should be dropped to the bench next week to see if we miss him - if not, loan him to the...

    Opinion Isaiah Tass?

    CC watchers: Is he first grade ready? Looks pretty mobile, is he an option for one of the two centre spots? Something like: 1. Hoppa 2. Smith 3. Harper 4. Tass 5. DWZ

    NBN Modem advice

    Need some help mates. Moving to a new house in a few weeks and I'm pretty much decided on Aussie Broadband as my ISP, problem is their stock Modem looks pretty junk. Can anybody make a suggestion for a decent one that won't cost $600 and be powerful enough to cover 3 heavy users over 2 levels?

    Controversial Opinion

    Lichaa has improved on weaknesses in his game (decision making, passing off the deck, leadership) and is still being hammered by some for his history and reputation. At this point in time, he's the best option at 9 that we have. Fight me

    Who is the Best and Fairest ref in the comp?

    Just thinking about which ref I'd want running Origin, I like the honesty of Badger but Perenara seems to be the most fair and least biased. ?

    Josh Morris

    Is he ready to be put out to pasture? Move him on? Drop him back to Intrust? If yes, do we chase Jordan Kahu mainly for goal kicking?

    Bird or Tedesco

    If we were to throw $1 mil+ at one of these two, who would you prefer for fullback? The dynamic ball runner with a history of injuries, Tedesco Or Arguably the more creative, bigger bodied Jack Bird who has a reputation as a money chaser?

    Blues fullback

    I don't care if you don't like Origin, close the thread - I love it. How long can Tedesco hold Trbojevic off for the #1 jersey?

    Discussion: Bulldogs Hooker

    There seems to a growing number of people who like the idea of Mbye being moved to starting hooker. I've long been an advocate of giving Lichaa until 25 years old to round out his game before we lump him as being a dud. It's undeniable Mbye could give us a dangerous runner out of dummy half...

    Discussion: Dragons

    The Dragons having moved Marshall on and playing Josh McCrone at the 7 have had early season success. Not only in terms of wins, but they're playing a lot of decent footy. McCrone's kicking game is woeful, he isn't a game breaker or overly talented, but: 1. How much of their success do you put...

    Pretty early for a full analysis, but what are peoples initial thoughts on him? Gives a different dimension on the edge, bit of foot work, I'm keen to see more.

    Jersey slinging

    Rewatching the Broncos v Warriors game and Nikorima takes a dart from dummy half, finds a gap and goes for it. He's only pulled down by a wild grab from Gavet around the collar and is violently yanked backwards, we've seen the Burgess twins and others do this countless times. How is this not an...

    The best use for T.Williams 2016

    If it was up to you, how would you use him next year? Move Lafai out one and put him into the centers? Bench? NSW Cup? Persevere with him in the pack? I think the biggest issue here is laziness and needing direction to get him running onto the ball at pace, putting him 1 on 1 with weak...
