Round 25 vs Panthers

[MilanDragon]

Team list Tuesday and a must win game vs the panthers!

For me, I don't care what's supposedly 'good' for the club - I do care about getting a win and hoping the Warriors and Tigers win too!

Glad it's a Sunday game too, gives me something to look forward to all weekend rather than losing on a Friday and ruining the weekend!

What changes if any do we need?

What changes if any do we need?

CEO, board, and coach

 

[Overseas dragon]

Make sure you post in the correct forum you idiot OVERSEAS DRAGON .get off the terps next time give yourself a left uppercut.

 

[Bests Golden Boots]

"McCrone to halfback" replies McGregor.

 

[Dragsters]

4 forwards on the bench.

Leilua to the bench for McCrone.

Actually use 17 players for a change...

 

[Dragonslayer]

Host for Lawrie is really the only change for the forwards.
Nene back to wing.
Mann stays at half
Dugan centre
We need an impact player as the #17 someone (like May foe the Panthers) who can really make a difference when they come on. I would punt on Leilua.
McCrone offers nothing and we need to score points and lots of them. Mann makes some errors but he's the best option for attacking play.
If McGregor thinks that because McCrone played in the Rd1 victory he should start, then yeah he has completely given up on 2017 and reinforces how much he is out of his depth.

That's a novel idea.

Bring Field back or is he injured.?

Bring Field back or is he injured.?

Field needs space and someone to create it.
Leilua ia the one who can create the space and offloads to the likes of Dufty, Mann Widdop hell even Lafai chiming in.
Would be more of the X factor than Field at present IMO

 

[2010]

It is a no brainer that Leilua needs to be on the bench. But then McIdiit has no brains so it will be McCrone.
Coach says every week that we can still make the eight. He should realise that this game is our grand final.
NRL Squad for Round 24 v Brisbane Broncos:

1. Matt Dufty
2. Nene Macdonald
3. Josh Dugan
4. Tim Lafai
5. Jason Nightingale
6. Gareth Widdop (c)
7. Kurt Mann
8. Leeson Ah Mau
9. Cameron McInnes
10. Paul Vaughan
11. Tyson Frizell
12. Joel Thompson
13. Jack de Belin
Interchange:
14. Tariq Sims
15. Hame Sele
16. Blake Lawrie
17. Taane Milne
18. Josh McCrone
19. Will Matthews
20. Luciano Leilua
21. Euan Aitken

If the manly and cows win.
We might as well throw the ball around like who cares.
It might just work.
Was going for the 3cs last week
2/3won except Canberra.
Will cheer for tigers warriors and us
2/3 might be enough.
Hopefully one of those wins are us
Dont want to see merrin do another dressing room dance.
Its a about annoying as interviewing thaiday after every broncos game on 9.

 

[St Georgio]

I believe we should all collectively dismiss any negativity, put down our guns towards our Ceo, Coach or any particular player until we make this years GF, we have two important games coming up, our genius super coach will be there for at least another season. The universe works in mysterious ways so you never know, we need to believe the boys energy levels will be sky high, our forward pack will dominate over the next few weeks and our backs will score some spectacular tries.

St George Illawarra Dragons 38
Penrith Panthers 8

 

[ALSGI]

Now is the the time to 'rest' Nighty for Field and Milne/McDrone for Luciano.

 

[blacksafake]

Just run the fkcu at Wallace,Moylan,Cartwright,Cleary,Tamou & Peachey with support from Dufty & Mann.
They are all suspect in defence.

Does Collins just pick seven backline players and throw all thier names in the air and see where they land.

 

[jeffdragon]

Host running off widdop like he did v manly and leilua's offloads

 

[SET2JT]
