Napa needs to be given a message.. I woukd bench him.. an absolute flop.. he should be leading from the front
I thought the same thing, but Thompson deserves a chance to own him. Who knows maybe our British Bulldog will wake the Ginger Dud up..

Thats not the point. We should be starting our best combos in their best positions every week, DWZ and Smith are wingers, Meaneys game at fullback has not been tried with the new rules and faster game and I think he is better this year.

Katoa has not played this year and should be given a go with a footnote that if he doesn't impress he is gone. Holland did have a combo working with Smith and defends at centre much better than out wide so there is no reason they wont pick that up. Ogden needs minutes and I would probably swap him for Britt who has been disappointing.
Meaney still runs like a pussy but at least he can catch and hold onto a ball, probably pass it better also lol.

But yes, your point about putting players in the right roles is correct. Pay keeps aimlessly shuffling shit around like an idiot and continually plays players incapable of executing certain roles in the wrong position. They aren't going to get better, why the fuck he persists with it is beyond me.

we did

ok a few positional changes there but everyone knows Meaney at fullback has been tried and he offered fuck all

Holland in the centers fail

Katoa was absolute rubbish every time he’s been given a crack

look a few positional changes I agree but let’s not pretend it already hasn’t been tried
Meaney the poor **** had 3 games, Pay brought as a fullback and never gave him a proper go. I’m not saying he is the answer but he deserved a proper shot.

FMD every week I look at the team list with a bit of hope bit of excitement a bit of glee if you will then i read the fucker and i feel like a 12 year old who's been rejected at the school disco. Seriously fucking Holland and DWZ at fullback put meany back there and ffs bring katoa or cogger onto the interchange.
And in whos fucking world is dropping AVO a good idea. Pay you nufty c**t

Agree, his returns are not strong. Think apart from being able to catch, he will be more likely to be pushing up in support on any breaks we make and his broken field running is good. We have been so poor in this area.

I refuse to believe Pay just opted to not select Averillo. Literally the one shining light we’ve had all season. The kid has to be still recovering. I just can’t fathom the coach being that dumb.

Dean pay your a dumb coach.
You have know idea
A good coach would of signed Curtis Rona for this year and Tim Lafai to fix our back line and given katoa the hooker role. Pay will be sacked on Monday next week.

Nasheed here,
In my opinion We MUST keep Holland in the 17 for his versatility, Line break ability, speed and goal kicking.
Remember we are lacking points, and we have someone in the squad who two seasons ago was the best in the business at busting tackles and breaking the line. Seems a no brainer to me given we can't seem to do that anymore and once he gets some confidence should be good.

Hoppa can't do that and neither can Montoya.
