As soon as Martin came on we looked a lot more dangerous, him and CHN are the only ones that know how to run lines. Pay needs to get over himself and pick the most balanced side. I know we have a shit side but if we at least play our players in the right position we would have a better chance of winning games.

In fairness CHN was pretty good in Canterbury Cup today, but still gave away a few really stupid penalties and made a few errors.

That said one penalty was for absolutely destroying a bloke in a tackle. Nearly cut the bloke in half and it was completely legit.

Martin need to be in the side.... 100% ... and play more minutes.

LOLOLOL sounds like a penalty the dogs would cop.
Where can you watch CCup games after the fact?

@TABOO If you find it the hit is at 36:27 ... he absolutely nukes the bloke. Hits hard, picks him up, and slams him into the turf.

Foxtel On Demand normally have the previous weeks games to a certain date (doesn't look like it via Foxtel online)

Likewise the games on Ch9 are on 9Now.

I use on demand via Chrome (watch.foxtel.com.au) which you can use if you have a Foxtel account.

BUT still doesn't have all NSW Cup old games.

I know you can buy them from NSW RL so maybe thats the reason.

The side is definitely better when Martin is on the field.

He does run good lines and is a decent ball playing backrower. Every time he goes at the line defenders are in two minds and we look almost dangerous...I rate the bloke highly

Agree..but I'd like to see him have a bit more aggression in his running and offloads. Be a shame to lose him but he has been stuffed around severely when you factor in the past 2 years so would probably be better off.

CHN will be asking for a release next probably...can anyone confirm the 40 minutes test Pay supposedly set for him? Seems ridiculous.

Just put martin on left edge and chn on right. Let them play 80 mins. How hard can that be??
This ^^ Plus JJ (out of respect to past performances and capt) at lock. It's so obvious it's painful to realise a fg coach can't see it. That's whats stirring up members and fans. Any other fg coach, hell enee coach, would have used that back 3 in those positions. The only maybe is Josh not really deserving of a spot on form, although he was better against Raiders.

Fans are bitterly disappointed we have yet another stubborn, brain dead coach.

I hear you.
I like rfm too but we cannot afford to complicate things just because we have too many backrowers. He just have to be back up or develop into a middle forward. Pretty sure he was a lock in junior days.

Nah it’s better to have C Smith and Elliott playing big minutes instead

If the players had gotten their discipline in line then it might be a valid suggestion, but they haven't, so it isn't.

Can you elaborate with facts just what the problem has been between them and Pay. They have still been our best forwards so it hasn't affected their form (to a large degree..by comparison to the rest of the squad).

we all know this... Pay does not
Our edge forwards should've been key to our attack this season yet Pay has absolutely fucked it up more than I ever thought was possible. Can't believe Elliott got 80 on the edge last match, just ridiculous.

Yep he's a fucking wanker, amazes me how stupid he has been with our injured players... hey Adam first game back your starting over all our better backrowers. Did the same with Napa when Ogden was killing it.
