Round 21 - Dogs vs Panthers - Team List and Discussion Thread

[KiwiDog7]

If Cleeland can't get a run after his form on the weekend especially when top side are shit then he's never getting a run under Des

 

[XR6T]

Elliott should have had a stint in reggies.....Tualau to bench.
RFM to 12, Fine to 13, Klemmer to 8, Graham to 10, Tolman to bench.

 

[yearofthedogs2018]

Still shothouse

which parts dont you like? Just out of interest.

 

[KiwiDog7]

You mean Mbye will actually wear number 9

 

[ElMagicElMasri]

Can see an 08 run of form starting here. Would not be surprised in the least if we cop 50 here and maybe once or twice more this year.

 

[dogluva]

Another week, the same team. Seriously, what the fuck can you do yo get dropped in this team. We were fucking dreadful last week and he makes on change which is actually not a change.
RFM was one of our beat last week and he doesnt get a starting spot?? FUCK YOU DES. #imonthedeshatebandwagon

Have we all not got the fact that Des Hasler is if nothing else stubborn, and everything is his way or not at all. He will NEVER admit he is wrong.This has been proved time and time again and he is the perfect example of the old saying "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."

 

[boggie23]

Crazy it has taken 21 rounds to give mbye the 9 jersey.

But even more retarded to carry lichaa off the bench for 5 mins at the death.

Not sure how Hasler thinks but it's definitely not logically. It's borderline retarded (no offence to the retard community who must feel harsh being linked to Hasler).

If mbye starts bring in someone else on the bench. Can't believe it took 21 rounds to move mbye from the 7. Any other coach would have dropped him after 6 rounds last year......

I can only recall two players being dropped on the basis of form over the last two years - TRex and Brenko Lee - others have made way for players returning from injury suspension etc - any others?

 

[KLil]

If Elliot drops another pass, I'm gonna have that ***** hands sewn to his ass cheeks.

Jackson and finucane had the worst hands when they started.. elliot will become soo quality in a couple of years

 

[KiwiDog7]

Does anyone know if Des dropped anyone in his Manly days particularly his first few years

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Des dropped our most lethal strike weapon when we struggle to score 13 points a games ffs. Stupid ****.

 

[GDR]

I agree .. but he was also a massive liability in d.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

He wasn't the only one. That right edge of him, Holland and Frawley was just a mess. Our right edge always has been a mess. Des should of played Brett outside him from the very begining, not like Brett has been great for us though i guess..

Brenko is offensively better than all our current backs combined and is the only one capable of creating something out of nothing. His defence also isn't as gamebreaking as some claim considering we beat the Warriors with him and lost without him..we also just got lapped bigger than we ever did with him.

 

[D.O.W.]

The line up looks ok...it's finally close to what will actually play out on game day so at least the ridiculous mind games are done with.

For mine, I think Cleeland deserved a shot at NRL being in red hot form, we have been struggling for results & Frawley has gone a little backwards since his opening performances. How he is not even in the top 23 named is mind boggling.

Klemmer should be playing prop.

RFM should be starting.

Tualau on the bench in place of Lichaa.

That's my spin.

 

[Mr Invisible]

Brenko conceeded more points than hs scored, because it wasn't just him that was causing issues, but when he misses a tackle it results in other players having to cover in defence.

He's been doing the same in NSW Cup (leaking points), so don't except him back anytime soon.

 

[Novdoggie]

Graham, has missed the last four weeks after injuring his shoulder in the Round Sixteen clash with the Warriors. With the return of the English International to the starting line-up, Danny Fualalo will go back to the bench.
Moses Mbye, has been named to start at hooker with Michael Lichaa on the bench.
Matt Frawley will partner Josh Reynolds in the halves.
At least he is consistent got to give him that haha, at least Lichaa isn't starting at hooker in a weekly
smokescreen lol

1 Will Hopoate
2 Brett Morris
3 Josh Morris
4 Chase Stanley
5 Marcelo Montoya
6 Josh Reynolds
7 Matt Frawley
8 Aiden Tolman
9 Moses Mbye
10 James Graham
11 Josh Jackson
12 Adam Elliott
13 David Klemmer
14 Sam Kasiano
15 Raymond Faitala Mariner
16 Danny Fualalo
17 Michael Lichaa
19 Francis Tualau
20 Kerrod Holland
21 Asipeli Fine
23 Brenko Lee

Oh so this is the team that is going to win ten straight and go on to win the comp. [emoji23] [emoji23]

K.

 

[Haddaway]

Has he been sacked yet?

Team selections don't matter anyway. The coach is a stubborn old twat and the sqaud he has assembled is plod central.

Who wants a bet that Elliot drops a sitter and Frawley tries to sell a dummy but gets hammered. Elliot has some of the worst hands I have seen. He looks like he will drop it without even being touched lol, terrible.

 

[yearofthedogs2018]

Des dropped our most lethal strike weapon when we struggle to score 13 points a games ffs. Stupid ****.

I want Lee back as well but don't see how he can fit in now? Hoppa or Morris boys wont get dropped and Montoya and Stanley have both been going well.

 

[Dogzof95]

The first step towards what exactly? He's arrogantly stuck to his guns all season until there isn't a hope in hell of us making the finals. Now, with nothing to play for, he lumped the burden onto Frawley to create something to take from a failed season.

I'm just been sarcastic and facetious... I do agree with your comment, the guy has destroyed our season, now that our season is on life support and heading into a place of no return, he has an a epiphany.
