Drop Cogger? Are you nuts? He’s offered more in two games than Lewis and Wakeham have between them all season. It’s not his fault our forwards got shoved around like school kids.
People think the half’s job should be to tackle burgess 1 on 1. Which happened 1-2 years ago now?

You do that you are our halfback for life :p

Promises changes? He’s changed the side just about every week!

What possible changes will make a difference against Canberra?

SG needs a new bench. We have no impact from it. We have limited impact with our forwards. With Tolman in the side. He starts or don’t make the side. We need Ogden starting he’s been good. Bench of Napa controversy I know but aim for impact like he made a roosters. To’omaga we all know what he offers. Katoa as utility. Sue. He lifts Back row of RFM and Smith. As he can slip if needed into center. Lock Jackson. Smith offers nothing on wing. Replace him with Dallin. Put Meaney at fullback or drop him. Center Hoppa and Schoup. Jayden other winger. Give Avo a rest or play him at 5/8 or Fullback. But don’t play him at center he’s not ready for that defence load. Stick with similar for year and we develop and improve our squad

Nothing wrong with a good defensive half... but they have to bring attack to the table first and foremost!
Totally agree. Defence and tackling technique is a huge bonus. But putting the defence in 2 minds and setting up an attacking play is their main purpose. Not saying cogger is the best player in the world. But he does get a better job done at setting up his outside men then Lewis.

Well yeah he’s right with everything he’s saying but he also needs to take a lot of the blame. Weird use of the interchange. I must’ve missed why Lafai got benched? That disrupted that whole side defensively.
He hooked him off after they let in that soft try he must have got spooked we were going to collapse and thought putting averillo their would make a difference and it did they scored another 3 down that left side after that lol

Can we sack the interim coach and have a replacement for the replacement? Somehow Georgallis is doing more damage than Pay did. This season has been so painful and has dragged on forever. These last five games will feel like five months.

If they actually played our best youngsters or key players for next season and beyond in their best positions and big minutes, then we might be able to take something out of the next five weeks.

Instead Georgallis will just play more Reserve Graders and make more confusing changes for the sake of it. The club needs to take the decisions out of his hands.

Drop Avo and put another forward on the bench.

Avo is like a deer in the headlights when the attacking line is near him

Drop Cogger?

He’s played better than Lewis and Wakeham have this year.

Deserves to keep his spot.
Agreed. I think a Cogger/Burton combination might work. Smith or McInnes at hooker and Avo at FB.

Meaney, Cotric, Hoppa and DWZ or Smith complete the backline..

If you won’t a dumb c*** and made some crucial changes during the game then you wouldn’t be so disappointed. We need a couple of big bodies on the bench. We need to scrap a 4th player on the bench as we have katoa who can cover diff positions.
Play meany at the back and lock our defence with hoppa in the centre’s with Lafai. Smith and dwz should be our wingers.
I’d put av to partner foran and leave the team as it is
Lafai is absolute shit!!
Why would you move Hopaote from fullback? He was by far our best player today.
What has Averillo done??? But be a try machine for the opposition.
