Cook is rubbish
however we have no other feasible option at hooker unless we head down to the cross during the week and trial some out

I hope this isn't an excuse to move Mbye from 6 to 9 when Reynolds returns.

Go with the specialist hooker in Cook.
Agree 100% - It has to bee Cook. Mbye always has a bad day at the office wearing no.9

Also des said Cook will fill in and he's really confident with him. If cook kills it next week what do we do for the rest of the season

Drop Loud Parrot and take 2 hookers into the finals?

I may be wrong but haven't all the recent Premiers carried 2 hookers?

So will Cook be allowed to run out of dummy half if he plays? People are saying is very quick and this should be an advantage in making meters or chasing people down which should be awesome lol

Haven't really seen Cook play but if he does come in hopefully he'll be able to get the job done. Admittedly its a pretty shit time to be losing Lichaa to injury but I'm sure Des will have something prepared.

I hope I can be proven wrong, but last time cook played first grade he played 15mins and was immediately replaced because he was that bad. Has speed but shit decisions from dummy half. Again I hope he is better this time round ....

Last time Cook played NRL we were all playing shite and he was a last minute ring in.

Cooks the fastest at our club (faster than Phillips), and possibly one of the fastest in the NRL (at least off the mark). Used to play as a fullback and is incredibly speedy. Would catch James Roberts in a foot race I reckon.

Watching him run is like hitting a fast forward button :lol:

Just hope Lichaa recovers well and is back for he finals if we make it. He has had a fantastic first year. As for Cook, this is the chance he has been waiting for and it doesn't get any bigger in a GF replay.

Bad luck for Lichaa 2 leg injuries in 2 weeks. Good luck to Cook and hopefully he goes well.

They won't be naming anybody else if Reynolds can play hooker and is available.

He was taken of after 5 but not cause of his performance it's cause we lost total control of the game and Des needed to address it. My only concern with Cook is him tackling the big Souths forwards. He's only a little guy.

Hopefully it is just a couple of weeks. Lucky for us we have a fairly easy run home, aside from this weeks game.

Because Cook is a real hooker and I don't know what the hell JR is lol
No josh Reynolds was a hooker and then des made him a 5/8 and his first year at 5/8 he went really good but. But Reynolds is originally a hooker also in nsw his debut watch again he played really good quick and could find gaps to throw and score or score him self

Reynolds is a ****ing shit hooker, service is absolutely horrible. All he is good for is a dart and nothing more.

Cook is one of those players that's brilliant at NSW Cup level but never seems to step up at first grade level.

That said, he's only played 4 games in the first grade and if he just plays a traditional hooker role without trying to kick or go for the solo try like he did a couple of seasons back, then he should be good for the job.

Have to agree with marley, He cant pass off the ground. All des wants from a hooker is good service from dummy half and strong defence.

Reynolds is automatic selection for hooker.

That's the end of it really.
