Official Round 19 - Bulldogs vs South Sydney Discussion Thread

The whole backline is shit

Id put Averillo in 1 wakeham in 7 lewis 6
Hopa and lafai centers
smith okunbor/dwz wings

Move Reimis to left side wing

Averillo
Smith
Lafai
Hopa
Okunbor/ dwz
Lewis
Wakeham

Your right, the whole back line is shit.
Theres simply no way to pick a strong team from what we have.
Im not a fan of Lewis at all as I feel he offers absolutely nothing but a huge kick. But thats just my opinion.
Wouldnt play Av at full back either but hey, the team youve picked above is stronger than the one that SG has picked so...

 

[doggieaaron]

The guy cant tackle on his inside because he cant stand on his left leg properly... Honestly shocking decision on this one.

The pay/sg show has been so fucking depressing cant wait for this shit show to be over this year

 

[hayes]

Meaney is fucking shit cant belive they extended him 1 extra year

He always sign a three year contract

 

[Apex Cedar]

Honestly why persist with shit that doesn’t work DWZ shouldn’t be anywhere near the back he is gonna drop the standard 3+ bombs per game then loose it a couple times running the ball back and oh challenge it and Jackson will take his word like he always does. But seriously how does SG still persist with the failed lineups I’d personally go with:

meany
Tui Katoa
Lafai
Hoppa
Ok
Avo
Wakeham
To’omaga
JMK
Tolman
RFM
Thompson
Jackson

Katoa
Sue
Roumanos
Lewis/Britt/Smith

Btw this would've been the perfect time to shift Hoppa to the backrow and watch the magic happen.

time??

I like Hoppa and think he has been good for us but, his D has been poor on occasion one on one and you want him tackling other forwards all the time? You been sharing a pipe with Nasheed..?

 

[Ant2611]

I think Meaney should be fullback, Hoppa in centres with Lafai and I would give R Smith a spot on the wing ahead of DWZ.

And cocknballs at centre. Why not. Everyone else has failed. Him and hopperwhatthe fuck cant be worse than what we have had

Huh? One on one? You mean defending at fullback? Lol. Let's throw a forward at fullback and see how he defends "one on one".

 

[Ant2611]

Also as i said put cocknballs in the centre too

Reimis is not a centre. Reimis is not a centre. Reimis is not a centre. I will continually repeat myself on this until our club gets it through their head and picks players in their actual positions. The Reimis centre experiment was a failure, chuck hopoate in there and put Meaney back into fullback. How hard is it?

The RL journalism standards are so bad that the press don’t actually ask these questions of the coaching staff in the post match conference. Instead its, ‘Stevie, tough loss for your blokes. They never stopped trying though did they?’. ‘Nah, definitely not mate we just need to be switched on for the full 80’. Rinse, repeat every week. It’s amateur hour.

 

[Donkey Slayer]

He always sign a three year contract

Meaney
Britt
Dwz
Jmk
Napa
Crichton

Just not needed all wasted 2021 cap space
If they can all be let go now happy days

 

[Farcanrefs]

This coach is beyond belief.
Thompson is just not a prop. He is a running edge forward.
Hopoate is not a fullback.
Smith is not a centre.
Lafai is not a first grader.
C.Smith is not up to this standard.
I would persist with DWZ at fullback.

You lost me at DWZ.......

 

[oldpuppy]

Absolute pure comedy gold from Georgealis

People can bag him out as much as you want but you cant deny he has a great sense of humour.

Lol
He gets a lot of credit but his lookalike Carl Barron writes the jokes and assists with team selections.

 

[AlzzBulldog]

BRING BACK PAY!

Georgallis is pay 2.0

 

[Horse]

The pay/sg show has been so fucking depressing cant wait for this shit show to be over this year

Only so much a coach can do with the cattle available mate.

 

[BELMORE]

SG doesn't like Toomaga

Why? because SG won a prem off the back of him?

 

[AlzzBulldog]

Only so much a coach can do with the cattle available mate.

They don’t do themselves any favours

 

[maroondog72]

Of all the players he could have dropped he drops Meaney lol fuck this bunch of clowns

 

[Horse]

SG doesn't like Toomaga

He’s been pretty underwhelming whenever he’s started. Hasn’t really handled the added pace and physicality involved. Looks more suited to a bench role at this level.

 

[Bazildog]

Huh? One on one? You mean defending at fullback? Lol. Let's throw a forward at fullback and see how he defends "one on one".

No I am talking about him defending in and around the ruck all game..I would give him a run at 5/8 long before I would risk him in the forwards.

 

[doggieaaron]

Only so much a coach can do with the cattle available mate.

I get it but in some cases selections could of been alot better

 

[speedy2460]

You lost me at DWZ.......

DWZ may not be a fullback. But neither is Hopoate.
DWZ has good ball returns and sadly a few mistakes. But hes better than Hoppa.
