Not surprising we get the worst time slots. We literally have been the worst team in the comp for the past 5 years.

Need to string some wins and show some decent attack
I remember the good old days when Parramatta was down the bottom of the table

Herbie and Capewell could be a threat on the left edge. Niu is also the type of player that we struggle to contain. Forwards overall seem to match up well?
My worry is TPJ defending on the edge. Waddles did a decent job there last week, need TPJ in the middle.

Not to be a Debbie downer / a Marley, but we had the faster average play-the-ball speed compared to our opponents in all but five of our games last season. The only teams that outpaced us were the Titans (x2), Tigers (x2) and Knights (x1).
Didn't know that .... bit of a shock, as we always appeared to be dominated.

You just Farked my night.:cry::cry:

It's Cody Walker that always tore us a new one at Souths, not Reynolds.

Reynolds is a fairly composed player, but Walker is more dangerous with the ball.

Is Burns against Staggs or Farnworth?

Also noticed that Isaako has been dropped to reserve, Cobbo on the wing, and Tesi Niu in at fullback.

Oates and Cobbo are wingers.

Broncos on paper can do some damage if their side fires on the night.

Happy with the team. Patolo and Wakeham back in the extended squad. Surprised to see Reece Hoffman up there too. Ava is the experienced head though I do enjoy Patolo’s development. I wonder what his ears would be in NSW cup. Like Atoni and Ogden would run for 200+ meters and bag a meat pie in Reggies, but make limited impact in FG. I rate Patolo above both of them. Once RFM and Doorey are back, we actually have some decent depth in the pack to cover injuries and suspensions which is nice. For all the shit Okunbor cops, so long as he has an error free game, he’s one of the better wingers in the comp at his yardage and offloads work in the backfield. He’s also not terrible at finishing as well which is all we need our wingers to do.

I don’t know what side he will defend on probably Brisbane left our right against Hethro so I’d be sending Hethro at him from the get go.
Reynolds on the right so TPJ will be on that side (unless we change before kick off for whatever reason).

The side that was announced will not be the run on side.

How nice to have a half who can actually put towering bombs up that are hard for opposition to catch.
It also doesn't allow them to attack the kick and make metres straight away.
