, yes he was. I thought when he first came on, oh no :roll:, but he played very well. I thought Humble played very well for that 1st 20 minutes and the way he played makes me think that he could be the foil for Marshall for the rest of the season, i.e. Humble at 7, Marshall at 6.

What we don't want is Farah being frustrated with his 6 & 7 and being a 1st receiver, pushing everyone out one and our wingers being 6m over the sideline.

In regards to Siro going back to the 20's. Sheens woke up to himself and sent Groat back, hopefully when he watches the replay he can see that he should do it again. Paul might kill Tim and that wouldn't be a bad thing:roll:

Tiger05 remember a couple of seasons back he was almost going to the Panthers? the people on here who you think hate Heighno, were not responsible for that, Sheens was.
So there is an upside to last nights pain,that would work for me.probably be the only way to oust the fool.

Enough is enough, Bell has to be in the starting side, he added so much around the middle tonight. More than Heighno, that is for sure.

Why didn't the defensive Fulton play tonight? Him playing out wide is just a waste.

Siro, whilst he might be a future star, I believe it's time to get Marshall back at 6. Humble added plenty of spark in his 1st stint tonight, I think he should be at 7.

Lawrence had his best game of the year.
Ayshford played very well.

Hopefully Farah and Ellis will be right for next week.

Spot on ,

Very disappointing , forwards so non threatening slow jogging to the line easy targets they would be advised to watch how Rowdy hits the line it's embarrasing to see our hardest runner is our young centre(masala,ioseffa and cashmere who is not the fastest conveyance but he hits it up with vigour are excused) .

Benji has been so disappointing this year his head is difinately not in the game.His joking on the field with the opposition just shows his mind is not on the job and,to me it shows he has lost his killer instinct or it is fading quickly.He has his moments in every game but, there is something missing this year especially..

One last thing our defnce is so ordinary it seems we have gone back to our old ways of not wanting to defend for more than 2 sets at a time before letting the opposition breach our tryline,last nights defence was so bad.I am wondering who is in charge of defence coaching because at the moment they are being overpaid.

Seriously what about our game plan in attack,one out,one out than kick on 6,we are kidding ourselves if we think we are going to be a threat to anybody in contention for the top 8 with our attack.

f**k you lot are harsh saying we rely on bombs

How can you all forget our grubbers on the 3rd as an attacking option

Good old shifty sheens, he'll have the dribblers in the press corp lathering themselves into a sweat about how he's an innocator and always has his sides primed

I had no issue with the bombs.

It was the chasers who made the bombs useless.

Its no secret Barba is average under the high ball, so it was a smart tactic, but we only ever had 1 guy running through most of the time.

FFs he doesn't get the ball because our game plan involves benji touching the ball every single play. It's absolutely ridiculous, benji is an instinctive 5/8. His best seasons have been outside a genuine halfback who can look after the shit he doesnt do well. Sheens is trying to turn him into our everything

Give the great man his due. He has seen Qld win series 7 with Thurston and Cronk so the great man decided to move Benji to 7 to be our Thurston and signed John Morris to be our Cooper Cronk.

It was an ingenious way of getting it past Schubert who is waiting for the next whistle blower to stick his head over the parapet and dob in the next rorted as that is the only way schubert catches anyone.

Next year we'll have 4 five eighths (marshall, sironen, moltzen, anasta) and 1 halfback (miller)

Its f**king madness.

Robson is off contract, he'd be exactly what we need, and would be a perfect foil for Benji.

.

And if we miss Robson grab Chad Townsend - either of them would run us around the park well and let Benji play his natural position.

I've no issue with bombing, it's just that on Friday night most of them either were far too long or too shallow. Kicking game was generally pretty atrocious, especially in the second half.

The Dogs are a very sharp side at the moment, but they're no more talented 1-17 than the Tigers. Simply better drilled and prepared. Hasler has got a team with f**king Kris Keating at #7 to 2nd in the comp FFS. Meanwhile we shift our players around & across the park on a weekly basis and wonder why our players can't strike up combinations.

The score was a lot closer on Friday than I had expected, but I came out of the game more depressed about our chances than expected. Dogs were well off their game and still did us comfortably.

Wests Tigers’ Blair was charged with Grade 1 dangerous contact – unnecessary pressure, for a tackle on the legs of Bulldogs centre Josh Morris in Friday night’s 32-20 loss to Canterbury at Allianz Stadium.
