I think Stimson may start and Elliot will be in the bench. I will be suprised if Jackson is moved to lock though.It's most likely I agree. 11. CHN, 12. Jackson, 13. Elliott, 17. Stimson
hard to make an assessment from a competition in which ladder is almost completely reversedSo the overall feeling about the team is what?
Honestly didn't expect people to take the 9s as a sign of how well the year would go.hard to make an assessment from a competition in which ladder is almost completely reversed

Was just asking how the team went in the 9s. That's it. Who were the standout players? Was the attitude good? Shit like this.
Personally think the 9s show jack shit for what the season will be like and think it gives us very little insight into how good or bad we'll be.
Oh, wasn't having a dig at you mate. Clearly we're all looking forward to the season and I didn't word my sentence well enough ... a habit of mine.oh right, I thought ''overall'' was referring to the team in general.. I only saw the first game in which Dean Britt really lead the way and was just about best on field.. Harper good as well with high involvement.. CHN good as usual

Yeah, heard a lot of you talk about Britt which is great. Just glad we didn't pick up any injuries while out there.
As far as the Nines go the Friday line up was a lot more balanced and we struggled against the Sharks with out Britt and Ogden bending the line and attracting numbers into the tackles.Honestly didn't expect people to take the 9s as a sign of how well the year would go.

You can just see some channel 9 numpty drafting the headline “racist whiteface bulldogs”
His defence isn't as bad as you all make out... His misses on the weekend we're a palm from sivo, which he cleaned up anyways and covering Salmon from marker which he shouldn't have to do. If he wasn't making an effort I'd be with you, but he's cleaning up kicks and chasing people to corners when our backs arent, so that tells you alot about his attitude. Also I like Wakeham and want him to start with Cogger, but he had control in the second half against the Sharks and put in one of the shittest kicks of the tournament ...His defence is a massive liability.
One try assist woopy doo, he had all the ball in attack, bet if wakeham was the general he would have set up 3 and scored one himself.
I just cannot understand why he cannot learn how to tackle and be aggressive in defence.
What did he do in the off season?
Mate, don't get me wrong I want all our players to flourish and improve from last year and kiss ass.
They should have sent him to Lachlan Lewis folks place in the off season, so he can tackle tractor tyres all summer long.
Spot on I can't believe people are losing their shit over defence at the Nines. It's so much easier to get isolated with less numbers on the field and you can't get numbers into the tackles.His defence isn't as bad as you all make out...

Must be his hairstyle LOLSomething about Dallin looks different, but I can't quite put my finger on it

Cogger gets his body in front in and that's all you want from a half in defence.
Saying someone has no heart for their defence in the Nines is losing their shit in my opinion.I don't think anybody is losing their shit over the Nines in general, it's more the fact that it's what we've seen from Jayden in FG and I guess there is concern that if he is selected to start the season, we will see more of it.. As for Cogger, his job is not defence and the guys around him need to ensure that he is rarely isolated
I agree our edge defensive structures have been poor. All I want to see from Okunbur is intent. I hate seeing the move up and then slide back, if the overlap is there he just needs to hold or back himself, as floating helps no one. He looks fitter too which is goodSaying someone has no heart for their defence in the Nines is losing their shit in my opinion.
Jayden is a scapegoat to some degree for that defensive edge in general. He has issues in defence but too many times the horse has well and truly bolted when he's left defending a 2/3 on 1 over lap.
Meaney, Montoya and whoever else has played on that wing has been left hanging over the last few years. Hopefully the structures have been worked on over the off season.
