Whatever, I couldn't be f'ed looking it up before posting :roll:.
I still say there were none of our four first choice props on the field between the 40th minute and until after South scored. Prove me wrong...?

Based on my observation at the game The timings when Poore, Moimoi, Mannah and Allgood were all on the bench from at least half time until after the first SOuths try of the second half (about 50th minute?).
yes - just had a look - fui went off at 34th minute, replaced by paulo - none of the regular props were there until mannah came on 49th minute for tautai
lol so Bartman was right.
no team makes a sub at half time cos everyone gets a rest - so there is no point wasting an interchange on players who will get their breath back - so whoever is on at halftime will get another 10-15 mins into the 2nd half
tautai is in the team as a prop - hindy is a trundler .... we are effectively playing 5 props + hindy when tautai is in the team
its interesting .... everyone claims shack never gets a run cos he is now a prop - yet tautai gets a run, as a prop ..... i think shack at least has a right to have a chance over tautai who offers not much ... shack is getting shafted cos of what he did, fullstop end of story

The comment was in response to our lack of go forward, and specifically mentioned the four "recognised" props in our 17 - as opposed to the partimers who might fill in that position (Hindy, Tautai).

Regardless of how he's attempting to use an additional two second rowers in a six-man prop rotation, to not have even one of your four first choice props on the field at a crucial time for go forward is abysmal tactics imo. Most other teams/coaches can get by with a very simple four man prop rotation, and so could we - but Kearney tries to over complicate things, the players seem confused on the field, and the whole thing backfires.
Bullshit. The problem with you (and several others here) is that you pay more attention to a poster's name than the content they've posted, and get carried away with your own generalisations about the poster and start off with personal comments like the above rather than having the intelligent discussion. The reactions from some would be very different if I posted the same points under a different forum name, but I digress.
And/or a coach that drill it into the team during training each week. What the f do they spend their time doing the other four days of their working weeks - it sure as hell looks like they aren't training together or getting any structures or tactics right for gamedays?

LOL. Nope.
Souths didn't score in the 50th minute.

Barty said "around the 50th minute".
You can use around to stretch 7 minutes back to the 43rd minute Suity.
Barty is being honest and sincere.
No, it means they are revolutionising Rugby League.Does that mean hayne and hoppa will be spending a heap of time on the bench #-o#-o#-o
actually it depends how u ready bart's post - "... until after the souths try (about the 50th minute)" .... the 50th minute was after souths try
;-) :lol:

The problem with this is the simplicity of the assumption!
Tautai is a PROP. He hasn't played backrow yet for us. He comes on and plays limited minutes as a prop.
You might question why on earth we have a 5th 'specialty prop' in the lineup? Good question, however that doesn't make him not a prop.
And Hindy has been in the front row rotation "on and off" since round 4. So from the 34th to 49th minutes Hindy and Tautai were our prop forwards. Example: Gallen in OriginII. Just because he started at lock doesn't mean he didn't play minutes at prop.
We might well question the sanity of having 6 props in the 17 man squad ESPECIALLY when prop has been our strongest position all season. And rightly so - but we cannot say we didn't have props on the field. We had 6 in the squad so it was IMPOSSIBLE not to have 2 on the park.
