And for all of you who continually mock Dino, he's been proven correct. We need speed and more speed.

If I had selected the team, we would have won tonight.

Seriously don't know how you can argue with that.

Lol because you have zero proof at all! You claim to be a lawyer, you should know that!

For starters, if Dugan plays fullback that first try is a definite no-no. No chance in hell Dugan throws that cut out for Nightingale to score in the corner.

And assuming your round 1 team has Nightingale on the right wing, we still get slaughtered by Koritbete down that side. In fact, without switching back to Aitken marking him in the second half (which would not have happened in your set up), chances are they run in a few more tries, and we lose by more!

So go on, give me 1 piece of reasoning that your team would have won.

Well why do you play a specialist full back at centre and a specialist five eighth at full back and have no speed in the centre? Bloody mary should be sacked

Can you just remind us again why you're not selecting the team?

As I understand it most NRL teams are selected by the biggest muppet amongst their supporters.

Lol and you have finally done it. Anything you say from now on, this post can and will be used against you.
If not serious - it proves you are just a shit stirrer with nothing of common sense to add.
If you are serious - you need to come down about 50,000 feet from that high horse champ. You're turning blue

This guy has no credibility and no knowledge of the game. He's just an attention seeking little troll reveling in our loss, he's so happy and pleased with himself lol. You watch if we win a heap of games and best case scenario the premiership, the turd would disappear....or would probably take credit for the GF win in his own twisted world, biggest tosser I've seen on this forum.

Our main issue last night was with the outside backs specifically the right side. Two lapses in defence out there and no penetration in attack. I would switch Flo back over to the right and bring in Matautai for Aitken.
Aitken is a good kid but he is not a winger, you get found out at this level if you're out of position. Put Nightingale next to Dugan on the right and the side will be much sounder defensively.

My backline next week:

1) Mann
2) Nightingale
3) Dugan
4) Lafai
5) Matautai
6) Widdop
7) Benji


This has got much better balance and if this was our backline last night we would have won.

i see your logic but really the problem is playing a fullback at right centre.. Nighty as you mentioned must be right winger and Aitken right centre. Peter M to left wing.
if we want a ball playing fullback then DUgan doesnt really fit into the team..
sell him off and free up 700k in salary cap to invest in a decent hooker or half back.
