Official Round 23 Bulldogs V Knights - Team Lists and Discussion Thread

[B-Train]

Just get these last few games out of the way, what a shit year.

These past five seasons have been painful but this season has dragged on forever.

It's deja vu. In 2019 I couldn't wait until we finally got rid of Lichaa. Last year it was Tolman and this year it's Hoppa, Kotoa and hopefully Flanno.
I can't wait until we have a team where I don't dislike any of our players.

Didn’t Averillo break his wrist? I reckon there will be heaps of of changes.

Nah that was actually crap, tweaked his calf or hammy but the broken hand wasn’t true apparently.

 

[silva]

Quality line up

 

[halfcast]

averillo is not repeat not up to the demands of playing 6 or 7

 

[B-Train]

Fuck I don't get Barrett. I thought Avo was injured firstly but why does BBO get dropped to the bench. He touched the ball on a handful of occassions and when he did either looked good or got a set restart.

I like him picking Topine over Katoa but believe he should be 14 and then BBO at 9 in this instance.

I don't mind seeing him off the bench for now, but he needs to play 50 plus minutes. He's too dangerous out of dummy half to only play 25 minutes in that role.

That's what was reported, but I thought he fucked his lower leg lol. Whole-wheat was

That's what was reported, but I thought he fucked his lower leg lol. Who knows

knows

Yeah was t it his ankle? Some big unit fell on it at the end of the game? I think there will be a big shuffle around

Yup. Bring him on like we did with Thurston early on in his career. Blood him in and FFS don’t let him go

Topine jumps straight into the 9 and BBO to the bench for Flanagan I’ve seen it all

I think that has less to do with Flanagan's ability and more to do with our lack of depth at 9.... Topine is not an out and out 9 and BBO has proven to be a good impact 9 off the bench.

 

[Bailey Ryan]

Will Watson Heleta ever get a go

 

[CaptainJackson]

Because Topine can’t play 80 @ Hooker and BBO provides the most utility value with the ability to fill in at Hooker.

Pretty obvious really…

Yep I thought this would be obvious to all.

 

[Papa Joe]

Manu has been worse then okunbor

Bigger Heart, smaller body.

+ Katoa's shit. You need to make sure to get that in whenever you can.

 

[flamebouyant]

Stimson, need I say more.

 

[CaptainJackson]

Stimson, need I say more.

Waddell?

 

[bradyk]

Waddell?

Flanagan?

 

[Baseball Furies]

You're right, it is unpopular. Flanagan has nothing.

Well, we’ll see how your boy Avo goes if he’s given time to run and doesn’t have to make all of “these decisions” you think he’s incapable of making.

Like I said, I’m not the biggest Flanno fan but obviously Gus has his fingerprints on this and wants to see some combos before the year ends.

 

[Donkey Slayer]

Next week after Flanagan again fucks up another easy game

Avo
BBO

Jmk

Topine
