    Opinion Blake Taffee

    Like it or not, Taffe is a confidence player. He is not one of those players like Johnathan Thurston who will find a way to dig deep when the chips down. I think that with the confidence he got from last week he will play well against Souths, but only time will tell. He is a step up from...

    There might actually be something in this. However, he presumably never ran at HB the entire off-season. Souths will bomb the s**t out of him on GF. Critta and Kiraz have shown that they can handle the high ball under presure so maybe they can help him out against Souths.

    Sounds like you are making a good case for Titans winning by 13+ .... let me have a look at the odds, might just throw a lazy few $ on Titan's to win 13+! Seriously, game could go either way based upon a concussion or injury, etc. but at least this week the Dogs should be competitive.

    Bulldogs line up round 3

    That's what the off-season is supposed to be for. RL is not that complicated a game, a good coach should be able to get a team working well together over an off-season (Shane Flanagan at Dragons?) and not have to resort to the old excuse that we need 12 rounds to establish combinations, etc.
