You know things are dire when Fat Pat gets a spot on the extended bench

 

[Old dog]

He's been solid in reserves and we are short of class, King and Heighinton would have to play, no props 18-12, unless injury Yates before Buhrer, Naden had a shocker in reserves last week and surely Meaney could do with another run.
18-21 shows how we are going overall.

Please..... no more.

You will watch it mate! Like 2 dogs rooting its ugly but you cant take your eyes off it.

 

[Sydney Knight]

I'd prefer to see Yates play instead of Lillyman. Neither are going to give you a lot of metres but at least Yates has that ability to hurt people in defence

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

How's Denniss been playing? I dont really pay much attention to reserve grade

 

[perverse]

It's a bit hard for me to fathom how Brown isn't working harder to find a spot for Yates, given our defensive deficiencies. I haven't paid much attention to his decision making, but the dude can certainly put a hit on.

Also you know things are grim when PatMat is making our 21. Honestly thought we'd seen the last of him.

This. Unfortunately.

 

[Spot On]

Buhrer hey.

Great bloke, speaks well.

But enough already.

 

[Old dog]

I would have Yates at 13, move Guerra, drop Barnett to bench, along with King, Heighinton and Levi and would have dropped Sio for Hughes but maybe they are worried about goal kicking

 

[Spot On]

Can't see a problem with that at all.

 

[Burwood]

Good to see Lillyman rewarded and brought back into the starting side. His 1 run for 9m last week really kept the pressure up on the Sharks when he came on.

Averaging 9m a run is pretty good

 

[Dave_]

Tonight is the only game the season I haven't given us a single hope of winning despite it being v Parra. We will be thrashed terribly.

 

[Spot On]

Im thinking it is 1 of probably 3 games we do have some hope of winning for the rest of the season. Hoping last week was absolute rock bottom. Surely we can't be worse than that. Can we?




Can we?




Dead Cat bounce?

 

[macavity]

Some players running around in ISP for the Warriors who would walk into our side. Gelling and Nichol-Kolstat in particular.

 

[Burns]

Zero confidence about tonight. Not expecting too much besides Ponga doing something incredible at some stage.

No chance of winning.

Even if we weren’t completely down on confidence we don’t have the organisation in attack or defence without Pearce.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Please... PLEASE get the win tonight.

Let's go boys
