I was going to deduct 5 points for you being an Easts supporter anyway....

Harsh but fair.

Aren't Sunshine Coast and Easts the same club ?

They seem to have a feeder arrangement with each other.

Only difference is that Sunshine Coast won a Grand Final they were in.

interesting with Ingebritsen taking players from Easts- he took Dane Hogan (good riddance) but he also took in my opinion the most under utilised (and my favourite) Easts player in Guy Hamilton.

Used last year as a kind of bench full back type maybe dummy half guy he is starting for Sunny Coast at Half Back!

Anyway my boy and I will be at Davies Park this weekend watching Jon Buchanan get revenge against your mob XXXX Cap!

Ouroboros.

Souths are rightfully favourites. See they have picked up another quality Broncos player to add to their already impressive line-up.

Wynnum's team is ok with the exception of the 3/4 line in old terms. May struggle to score tries again.

I will be there as well with any luck. Away next week for the Gulls first home game so I will try to get to this one.

Wynnum looked good i thought. For a team that is 75% different from last years.

Is Seamark retired or not selected?

 

[XXXX Cap]

Not selected. He played the trial against the Broncos.

The signing of Travis Burns was the writing on the wall for the Welsh Wizard. Still, very handy bloke to have around if there are injuries.

Great defensive effort today by Wynnum. Souths completion rate can't have been too good.

agree.

Has Seamark ever played hooker? Ive always thought it would suit him.

Yep Wynnum defended well, but Souths attack was pedestrian. They ran the same plays with no success and rather than trying something else, just kept on doing boring readable and defensible plays and always down one side.

Just to further illustrate this point, they play a 7 all draw??

For one set after they scored the try, Souths lifted and ran hard. I thought "where's this been all day ?" Didn't last long. An attitude problem there to sort out.

Wynnum have three good hookers anyway plus four halves. Shame we have no outside backs.
