Wow, Can't believe that Jmoz is now probably the slowest person in our backline....

 

[2144superman]

Solid team .. cant wait for the game.

 

[Dogna88]

Why does klemmer start at 13 ffs!

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Copy paste lol

 

[KiwiDog7]

Why does klemmer start at 13 ffs!

He still plays middle (ruck) pretty much an extra prop as per his 200m run game last start

 

[KiwiDog7]

That old adage good judges subscribe to lol
'Never change a winning team' though could be said Des uses the same thinking when we lose to

 

[Dogna88]

Yeh i understand. I meant I rather him off the bench to finish the game rather then start it.

I'm hanging out for this game over there in (lotto country)
Hope Abbey has got rid of stomach bugs and really has a good game.
It would be great to put some consecutive wins together.
I think our forwards have to muscle them out

Our backs need to start getting ball in some open space, our forwards have been laying the platform week in week out but our backs can never capitalise because of lack of quality ball.

I agree,our halves will have a real test on there hands to take control.
Hopefully some good combinations amongst the backs will come into play.
Our execution has to improve and score points.

 

[Dogna88]

it is not bait, if you are going to bag des and the team selection, give us your reasons, as the other teams are doing it also, so you must know something more than Des, Mcgurie, flanno etc.
enlighten us all

Did you read my comment? I prefer (meaning personal choice) klemmer off the bench to finish the halves. Like he did at the beginging of last year. I think its far more effective than him being another Graham and Tolman.

BUT, i am not coach, just discussing my opinion on an open forum... feel free to have your opinion.

8. Tolman
10. Graham
11. Jackson
12. RFM
13. Eastwood (swap wit klem after 20-25)

14. Kas
15. Klem
16. Faulalo
17. Elliot

Back in the old days triple headers were all we knew! Bring them back NRL!

 

[CrittaMagic69]

[CroydonDog]

We got the wood over manly.

TBH their pack was made to look like world beaters last week.. didn't realise how depleted th cowboys were without their main men. Guess it shows how much of a balance you need to make a complete football team.

Dce to bomb the shit outta abbey. He'll spill some no doubt but we got enough to hold them out I think.

 

[_G-Dog_]

With a halfback this team could win the comp

 

[Bob dog]

Aiden Don't bend the line, why is he still there?" We need a big fuk, Hasler needs to face up to the hard decisions.
Still a strong side.
