[Dannyboy80]

Hi all, new member here. Just read that benji has been ruled out for the Titans game also. Thought I'd use my first post to put my side down for Friday's game..
1 gypsy
2 KFFL
3 Milne
4 Aitken
5 Mann
6 Widdop
7 McCrone
8 Packer
9 Rein
10 cooper
11frizz
12 Thompson
13 JDB
14 Sims
15 Ah Mau
16 Host
17 Mc Carthy

Thoughts?

With Benji and Duges out my 17 would be:

1. Nighty
2. KFFL
3. Aitken
4. Milne
5. Garrick (Kid is quick and has a bit of skill, Plus we are short on wingers)
6. Mann
7. Widdop
8. Ah Mau
9. Rein
10. Cooper
11. Frizz
12. Thommo
13. JDB

14. Sims
15. Packer
16. Host
17. Dufty (Brought on in the later stages of each half)

Couple of new players in Garrick and Dufty, Need to be give shots or they will leave and we really have nothing to lose.

I thought the same originally, but they both played u20 origin last night, probably better to blood them after a longer turnaround.

I like the idea but are they eligible?I would prefer Hutchison to McCrone. Guys like McCrone and Quinlan block our juniors from being given a go and they leave in frustration.
We will be struggling to win against the Titans and need to have some attacking flair
in the team. Saints seldom score in the second half and have had at least four games in which they were thrashed mercilessly due to point scoring ineptitude,
handling errors, poor backup and hopeless goalkicking/line kicking.

Totally agree . I would give Hutch a go just for them to see if he is worth keeping or has a genuine chance of being a first grade half with the club in the future . Players like McCrone and Quinlan will never be more than just fringe first graders at best .

Good ole part time Benji.
He has spent more time off the field than on the field.
Time to retire Benji Boy !!!

With a top 8 spot on the line don't expect to see any players given a go. We're the most conservative club in the competition. Mary would sooner play De Belin in the halves again than give a chance to a potentially up and coming player.

Benji 'The Tampon' Marshall. One week in, four weeks out.

Well..everyone whinges about giving our juniors a run, opportunity knocks.

Unfortunately Mary's sitting on the toilet pushing one out when opportunity knocks at his door.

Hutchison has been in very good form for the Cutters and has started to mature with his decision making.

McCrone will probably get the nod and honestly he at the very least will move the side in a forward motion instead of sideways.

Widdop is the bigger issue he has zero confidence and no form what so ever.

Our next coach must have a chin, and some hair.

Straight shooter.

Have to agree, hes really been a huge disappointment since being with us.....another game with halve disruptions....forget about shoring up any other positions in our side for the future a decent half is beyond critical at this stage...where we start I'm not sure BUT its been our problem for a very very long time and I'm afraid we aint goin nowhere folks until its fixed

Benji is probably just feigning injury so he brings up his 250th game vs the Tigers...

As convincing as that may sound, I doubt it. He's also playing for a contract whether that is here or another club so the more game time where he can showcase the better.

As much as people may want him gone, the above comment is an insult to the professionalism he brings to the sport.

Zero chance of that being true Eastview... Zero. .

Yep and the earth is flat!
